Age Related Differences of Executive Functioning Problems in Everyday Life of Children and Adolescents in the Autism Spectrum / Sanne F. W. M. VAN DEN BERGH in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-8 (August 2014)

As laboratory task performances often differ from real life observations, the current study focused on EF in everyday life of 118 children and adolescents with ASD (6–18 years). We investigated age-related and individual differences in EF problems as reported by parents on the Behavioral Rating Inventory Executive Functions (BRIEF: Gioia et al. in Behavior rating inventory of executive function. Psychological Assessment Resources, Odesse 2000), and examined the association with autism severity. Inhibition problems were mostly found in the youngest group (6- to 8-year-olds), whereas problems with planning where more evident for 12- to 14-year-olds as compared to 9- to 11-year-olds. In a subsample of participants meeting the ADOS ASD cut-off criteria the age related differences in planning were absent, while problems with cognitive flexibility were less apparent in 15- to 18-year-olds, compared to 9- to 11-, and 12- to 14-year olds. EF problems surpassing the clinical cutoff were only observed in 20 % (planning) to 51 % (cognitive flexibility) of the children and adolescents, and no relation was found with ASD symptom severity. This underlines the heterogeneous nature of ASD.

Prepotent Response Inhibition and Interference Control in Autism Spectrum Disorders: Two Meta-Analyses / Hilde M. GEURTS in Autism Research, 7-4 (August 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 7-4 (August 2014) . - p.407-420 Titre : Prepotent Response Inhibition and Interference Control in Autism Spectrum Disorders: Two Meta-Analyses Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Hilde M. GEURTS, Auteur ; Sanne F. W. M. VAN DEN BERGH, Auteur ; Laura RUZZANO, Auteur Année de publication : 2014 Article en page(s) : p.407-420 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ASD  autism  inhibition  interference  cognitive control  meta-analysis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is a substantial amount of data providing evidence for, but also against the hypothesis that individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) encounter inhibitory control deficits. ASD is often associated with interference control deficits rather than prepotent response inhibition. Moreover, the developmental trajectory for these inhibitory control processes is hypothesized to differ in ASD as compared to typical development. In efforts to gain a more comprehensive perspective of inhibition in ASD, separate quantitative analysis for prepotent response inhibition studies and interference control studies were conducted. Together, these two meta-analyses included 41 studies with a combined sample size of 1,091 people with ASD (M age 14.8 years), and 1,306 typically developing (TD) controls (M age 13.8 years).The meta-analyses indicated that individuals with ASD show increased difficulties in prepotent response inhibition (effect size 0.55) and in interference control (effect size 0.31). In addition, age was a relevant moderator for prepotent response inhibition but not for interference control. Exploratory analyses revealed that when IQ was taken into account, heterogeneity considerably decreased among interference control studies but not among prepotent response inhibition. In contrast to the general belief, both prepotent response inhibition and interference control problems were observed in individuals with ASD. However, a large variation between studies was also found. Therefore, there remain factors beyond inhibition type, age, or IQ that significantly influence inhibitory control performance among individuals with ASD.
