Titre : Association between anger rumination and autism symptom severity, depression symptoms, aggression, and general dysregulation in adolescents with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Shivani P. PATEL, Auteur ; Taylor N. DAY, Auteur ; Neil P. JONES, Auteur ; Carla A. MAZEFSKY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.181-189 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Rumination has a large direct effect on psychopathology but has received relatively little attention in autism spectrum disorder despite the propensity to perseverate in this population. This study provided initial evidence that adolescents with autism spectrum disorder self-report more anger-focused rumination than typically developing controls, though there was substantial within-group variability. Anger rumination was positively correlated with autism symptom severity with both groups combined. Future studies that include measures of perseveration on special interests are needed to understand whether anger rumination is a manifestation of a perseverative type of repetitive behavior or a distinct trait. Even when controlling for autism symptom severity, however, anger-focused rumination was associated with poorer functioning, including more depression symptoms and overall emotional and behavioral dysregulation. Therefore, further inquiry regarding anger rumination in autism spectrum disorder is clinically important, and the potential impact of rumination-focused interventions should be explored.

Titre : Association between depression and anxiety in high-functioning children with autism spectrum disorders and maternal mood symptoms Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Carla A. MAZEFSKY, Auteur ; Donald P. OSWALD, Auteur ; Caitlin M. CONNER, Auteur Année de publication : 2010 Article en page(s) : p.120-127 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism Asperger's-disorder psychiatric-comorbidity anxiety depression mood-disorders familial-aggregation maternal-symptoms Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Research suggests that children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) and their relatives have high rates of depression and anxiety. However, relatively few studies have looked at both factors concurrently. This study examined the potential relationship between maternal mood symptoms and depression and anxiety in their children with ASD. Participants were 31 10- to 17-year-old children with an ASD diagnosis that was supported by gold-standard measures and their biological mothers. Mothers completed the Autism Comorbidity Interview to determine whether the child with ASD met criteria for any depressive or anxiety diagnoses and a questionnaire of their own current mood symptoms. As expected, many children with ASD met criteria for lifetime diagnoses of depressive (32%) and anxiety disorders (39%). Mothers' report of their own current mood symptoms revealed averages within the normal range, though there was significant variability. Approximately 75% of children with ASD could be correctly classified as having a depressive or anxiety disorder history or not based on maternal symptoms of interpersonal sensitivity, hostility, phobic anxiety, depression, and anxiety. The results provide preliminary evidence that maternal mood symptoms may be related to depression and anxiety in their children with ASD. Although the design did not allow for testing of heritability per se, the familial transmission patterns were generally consistent with research in typical populations. While larger follow-up studies are needed, this research has implications for prevention and intervention efforts.

Titre : Associations between child characteristics and parent response to emotion differ in young children with and without an autism diagnosis Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jessie B. NORTHRUP, Auteur ; Soo Youn KIM, Auteur ; Carla A. MAZEFSKY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.525-537 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders emotional development emotion socialization parent response to emotion pre-school children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined how parents of children with and without an autism diagnosis respond to their children’s negative emotions. Specifically, we (1) compared levels of supportive, non-supportive, and distress reactions; (2) tested whether child characteristics (autism traits and emotion dysregulation) predicted parent responses; and (3) explored whether autism diagnosis moderated these associations. Participants were 1780 parents of 2- to 5-year-old children from the United States (812 with an autism diagnosis). Parents completed the Coping with Children’s Negative Emotions Scale and reported on children’s autism traits and emotion dysregulation. Results indicated that parents of autistic children reported slightly more supportive and less non-supportive and distress responses than parents of children without a diagnosis. Associations between child characteristics and parent responses differed by diagnostic group: parents of children without a diagnosis who had more autism traits reported more non-supportive and distress responses, while these associations were weaker or non-existent for parents of children with a diagnosis. Emotion dysregulation was also associated with parent responding, with subtle differences between groups. Findings suggest an autism diagnosis may shape how parents interpret and respond to children’s emotions.Lay Abstract This study looked at how parents of 2- to 5-year-old children with and without an autism diagnosis respond when their children are upset. A total of 1780 parents completed a questionnaire about how likely they were to respond to their child’s negative emotions in ways that were supportive (e.g. comforting the child) and non-supportive (e.g. saying the child is over-reacting, punishing the child). The goal was to see if parents of children with autism respond differently compared to parents of children without autism, and to understand if certain traits of the child, like social-communication and emotional challenges, affect how parents respond. Parents of autistic children generally reported more supportive responding and less non-supportive responding compared to parents of children with a diagnosis, though these differences were very small. For parents of children without an autism diagnosis, having a child with more social or emotional challenges was linked to more non-supportive responses. In contrast, for parents of children with an autism diagnosis, their responses were less strongly associated with these child characteristics. Importantly, some of the young children in this study who did not have an autism diagnosis had significant social-communication challenges consistent with autism and may in fact be autistic children who haven’t been diagnosed yet. These results suggest that how parents of children with an autism diagnosis respond to their child’s emotions may not be as impacted by their child’s challenges as parents of children without a diagnosis, perhaps because the autism diagnosis provides parents with understanding and support around these challenges. This highlights the importance of early identification of autism and providing support to all parents, particularly those with children who have social-communication and emotional difficulties.

Titre : Associations Between Conceptual Reasoning, Problem Solving, and Adaptive Ability in High-functioning Autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Diane L. WILLIAMS, Auteur ; Carla A. MAZEFSKY, Auteur ; Jon D. WALKER, Auteur ; Nancy J. MINSHEW, Auteur ; Gerald GOLDSTEIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2908-2920 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Conceptual reasoning Problem solving Adaptive behavior Cognitive Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract thinking is generally highly correlated with problem-solving ability which is predictive of better adaptive functioning. Measures of conceptual reasoning, an ecologically-valid laboratory measure of problem-solving, and a report measure of adaptive functioning in the natural environment, were administered to children and adults with and without autism. The individuals with autism had weaker conceptual reasoning ability than individuals with typical development of similar age and cognitive ability. For the autism group, their flexible thinking scores were significantly correlated with laboratory measures of strategy formation and rule shifting and with reported overall adaptive behavior but not socialization scores. Therefore, in autism, flexibility of thought is potentially more important for adaptive functioning in the natural environment than conceptual reasoning or problem-solving.
