Titre : A 5-Year Update of Conflicts of Interest in Autism Intervention Research in Applied Behavior Analysis Journals Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kristen BOTTEMA-BEUTEL, Auteur ; Jessica HINSON-WILLIAMS, Auteur ; Yueyang SHEN, Auteur ; Ruoxi GUO, Auteur ; Samantha BRAYTON, Auteur ; Jacqueline ALICEA, Auteur ; Shannon LAPOINT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1887-1894 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : applied behavior analysis autism conflicts of interest research ethics Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Researchers’ false, incomplete, or missing disclosures of conflicts of interest (COIs) can introduce bias into research, can erode public trust in research findings, and represent ethical violations of most academic journal policies. A 2020 study discovered that publications in applied behavior analysis (ABA) journals are particularly problematic in adherence to COI disclosure ethics. The current study is a 5-year update of this previously conducted study. We examined autism intervention research articles published over a 1-year period in eight ABA journals. Two coders extracted author names and COI disclosure statements from each study and conducted web searches to determine if authors were affiliated with organizations providing ABA services or consulting. One hundred and nineteen studies met our inclusion criteria, from which we compiled a database of 450 authors. Seventy-eight percent of authors held clinical and/or consultancy COIs. At the study level, 93% of studies were written by at least one author with a clinical and/or consultancy COI. Only 8% of studies disclosed any author COIs, and only 2% disclosed clinical and/or consultancy COIs. Ninety-three percent of statements claiming no COIs were false. COIs are increasingly pervasive in ABA autism intervention research, and the vast majority remain undisclosed.Lay Abstract This study looked at how often researchers who publish about autism interventions in journals focused on one type of intervention called Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) tell readers about their conflicts of interest (COIs). COIs happen when researchers benefit from showing something specific in their research, such as an intervention making things better for autistic people. The COIs we looked at are when researchers also receive money to provide ABA to autistic people or help other researchers provide ABA to autistic people (i.e., they worked as a consultant). COIs can negatively affect how research is designed, interpreted, and presented. We wanted to see if researchers tell readers about their COIs, or if they say they do not have COIs when they do. We reviewed autism-related intervention papers published over 1 year in eight ABA journals. For every paper, we copied the COI statement. Then, we searched online to see if authors were working as or consulting with ABA service providers. We looked at 119 papers with a total of 450 authors. This study is a five-year update of a 2020 study that found widespread but rarely reported financial COIs among ABA researchers. In our updated study, we found that 78% of authors had a COI. Some worked in ABA clinics, some offered paid consulting to other ABA providers, and some did both. Almost all papers (93%) had at least one author with these kinds of connections. But very few (8%) mentioned any COIs, and only 2% of papers stated that the authors worked as ABA providers or consultants. Most papers said the authors had no conflicts at all, but this was often not true. In fact, 93% of “no COI” statements were false. Although more ABA journals now require disclosure than in the past, many statements are still inaccurate, showing that the problem has not improved. The people in charge of publishing research, and the people who write research papers, need to do much better to let readers know about researchers’ COIs.

Titre : Adolescent Judgments and Reasoning About the Failure to Include Peers with Social Disabilities Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kristen BOTTEMA-BEUTEL, Auteur ; Zhushan LI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1873-1886 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Inclusion Moral reasoning Domain theory Adolescents Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adolescents with autism spectrum disorder often do not have access to crucial peer social activities. This study examines how typically developing adolescents evaluate decisions not to include a peer based on disability status, and the justifications they apply to these decisions. A clinical interview methodology was used to elicit judgments and justifications across four contexts. We found adolescents are more likely to judge the failure to include as acceptable in personal as compared to public contexts. Using logistic regression, we found that adolescents are more likely to provide moral justifications as to why failure to include is acceptable in a classroom as compared to home, lab group, and soccer practice contexts. Implications for intervention are also discussed. En ligne : http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s10803-014-2348-7 Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=259

Titre : Adverse event reporting in intervention research for young autistic children Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kristen BOTTEMA-BEUTEL, Auteur ; Shannon CROWLEY, Auteur ; Micheal SANDBANK, Auteur ; Tiffany G. WOYNAROSKI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.322-335 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adverse effects adverse events autism harms intervention young children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this study, we looked at published research on interventions for young autistic children that did not involve administering medication. We were interested in determining how often studies reported on whether adverse events (i.e. physical or psychological distress to the participants) or adverse effects (i.e. adverse events that are thought to be caused by the intervention) had occurred. We found that of the 150 reports we examined, only 11 mentioned adverse events. One of these studies reported adverse events occurred, and three reported that adverse effects occurred. We also reviewed the studies to examine the reasons that were given to explain why any participants dropped out of the intervention (termed "withdrawal"), to determine if any of these reasons could be considered adverse events or adverse effects. Fifty-four studies described reasons for withdrawal, and 10 of these studies had reasons that could be categorized as an adverse event, 8 studies had reasons that could be categorized as an adverse effect, and an additional 12 studies had reasons that were too vaguely described to determine whether they were adverse events or not. We recommend that autism intervention researchers develop more systematic methods of looking for and reporting adverse events and effects, so that professionals and families can be better informed when choosing to enroll their autistic children in interventions.

Titre : An evaluation of intervention research for transition-age autistic youth Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kristen BOTTEMA-BEUTEL, Auteur ; Shannon Crowley LAPOINT, Auteur ; So Yoon KIM, Auteur ; Sarah MOHIUDDIN, Auteur ; Qun YU, Auteur ; Rachael MCKINNON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.890-904 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adverse events,autism,intervention,risks of bias,systematic review,transition Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this systematic evaluation of intervention research for transition-age autistic youth, we examined quality indicators in 193 group and single-case design intervention studies, which tested effects on 1258 outcomes. Behaviorally based interventions were the most common intervention type. We found significant threats to internal validity for the majority of studies, including inadequate randomization, unmasked assessors, and too few data points to infer functional relations. The majority of outcomes were measured in contexts similar to the intervention and were conceptualized as behaviors directly addressed by intervention procedures. As such, they are of unclear long-term utility for autistic people entering adulthood. Adverse events were rarely reported. We suggest several avenues for improving intervention research for this age group.Lay abstractIn this study, we assess the quality of intervention research that focuses on autistic youth who are 14-22 years old. We found 193 different studies on this topic, and carefully reviewed them. Most of these studies tested strategies that were behavioral. This means that they used procedures like prompting and rewards to change participants' behavior. We found that the majority of studies had problems that make it hard to determine whether or not the intervention worked. The problems related to how researchers designed their studies, and how they measured the study outcomes. We also found that researchers rarely tried to find out if the strategies they studied had unintended negative effects for participants. Because of these issues, we make suggestions for how researchers might design better studies that will let people know how well the strategies worked.
