Clarifying the Associations Between Language and Social Development in Autism: A Study of Non-native Phoneme Recognition / John N. CONSTANTINO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 37-7 (August 2007)

This study explored a fundamental aspect of auditory information processing (AIP) that is dependent on social experience and critical to early language development: the ability to compartmentalize close-sounding speech sounds into singular phonemes. We examined this ability by assessing whether close-sounding non-native language phonemes were more likely to be perceived as disparate sounds by school-aged children with high-functioning ASD (n = 27), than by unaffected control subjects (n = 35). No significant group differences were observed. Although earlier in autistic development there may exist qualitative deficits in this specific aspect of AIP, they are not an enduring characteristic of verbal school-aged children with ASD.

Developmental course of autistic social impairment in males / John N. CONSTANTINO in Development and Psychopathology, 21-1 (January 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 21-1 (January 2009) . - p.127-138 Titre : Developmental course of autistic social impairment in males Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : John N. CONSTANTINO, Auteur ; Richard D. TODD, Auteur ; Lily CHIANG, Auteur ; Leah GIVENS, Auteur ; Hannah REED, Auteur ; Maggie M. GROSS, Auteur ; Teddi L. GRAY, Auteur ; Patricia LAVESSER, Auteur ; Anna ABBACCHI, Auteur ; Yi ZHANG, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.127-138 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Recent research has suggested that autistic social impairment (ASI) is continuously distributed in nature and that subtle autistic-like social impairments aggregate in the family members of children with pervasive developmental disorders (PDDs). This study examined the longitudinal course of quantitatively characterized ASI in 3- to 18-year-old boys with and without PDD. We obtained assessments of 95 epidemiologically ascertained male–male twin pairs and a clinical sample of 95 affected children using the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), at two time points, spaced 1–5 years apart. Longitudinal course was examined as a function of age, familial loading for PDD, and autistic severity at baseline. Interindividual variation in SRS scores was highly preserved over time, with test–retest correlation of 0.90 for the entire sample. SRS scores exhibited modest general improvement over the study period; individual trajectories varied as a function of severity at baseline and were highly familial. Quantitative measurements of ASI reflect heritable traitlike characteristics. Such measurements can serve as reliable indices of phenotypic severity for genetic and neurobiologic studies, and have potential utility for ascertaining incremental response to intervention.
