Autism spectrum symptoms in children with cerebral palsy: Prevalence and co-occurring conditions / H. M. BJORGAAS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 8-5 (May 2014)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 8-5 (May 2014) . - p.581-588 Titre : Autism spectrum symptoms in children with cerebral palsy: Prevalence and co-occurring conditions Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : H.

RYLAND, Auteur ; Mari HYSING, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.581-588 Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Cerebral palsy  Mental health  Psychiatric disorders  Peer problems Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Purpose: To explore autism spectrum symptoms in children with cerebral palsy (CP), and the association between autism spectrum symptoms and medical and psychiatric co-morbidity. Methodology: Parents of children with CP in a Norwegian population were interviewed with a child psychiatric diagnostic instrument, and completed the Autism Spectrum Screening Questionnaire (ASSQ). Medical and socio-demographic data were obtained. ASSQ mean scores were compared to the Bergen Child Study (BCS), both to healthy controls and to subgroups of children with chronic illness in general, and neurological disorders specifically. Results: Interviews and data collection were completed for 47 children, of whom 30 were boys, most had spastic CP, and were less severely affected by CP. Large effect sizes were found when comparing ASSQ mean scores in children with CP to children with chronic illnesses and normal controls. One in five children was ASSQ high scorers defined as a score above the 98th percentile of normal controls. A high rate of co-occurring psychiatric disorders, mainly AD/HD, was found in ASSQ high scorers. Conclusions: More attention should be given to autism spectrum symptoms in the regular follow-up of children with CP in an attempt to enhance social functioning.

Chronic physical illness and mental health in children. Results from a large-scale population study / Mari HYSING in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 48-8 (August 2007)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 48-8 (August 2007) . - p.785–792 Titre : Chronic physical illness and mental health in children. Results from a large-scale population study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mari HYSING, Auteur ; Christopher GILLBERG, Auteur ; Astri J. LUNDERVOLD, Auteur ; Stein Atle LIE, Auteur ; Irene ELGEN, Auteur Année de publication : 2007 Article en page(s) : p.785–792 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Chronic-illness SDQ DAWBA population-study Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) in detecting emotional and behavioural problems among children with chronic illness (CI). Methods: Parents and teachers of a population of primary school children in Norway (n = 9430) completed a questionnaire including the SDQ, and a question about chronic illness. A total of 74% (n = 7007) of the parents participated. A sub-sample (n = 1040) was given a psychiatric diagnostic evaluation according to the Development and Well-Being Assessment (DAWBA). Results: According to parent reports, 537 (8%) children had a CI. The SDQ revealed an increased risk of emotional and behavioural problems in children with CI as compared with non-CI peers, both among boys (OR = 2.10 CI 95% 1.56–2.83) and girls (OR = 2.11 CI 95% 1.49–2.99). Children with CI also showed an increased risk of psychiatric disorder as assessed by the DAWBA (OR = 1.70 CI 95% 1.04–2.85). Both the sensitivity and specificity of the SDQ in predicting a psychiatric diagnosis were high, even when only information from parents was included. Conclusion: Children with CI in the general population are at increased risk of behavioural and emotional problems and psychiatric disorders. Given its high sensitivity and specificity the SDQ might work well as a screening instrument for behaviour/emotional problems and psychiatric disorder in children with CI.
