An online training for college sexual assault counselors who serve autistic students: User feasibility and satisfaction / Martine CHASE ; Regina SCARAMELLA ; Brandy HABERER ; Reid CAPLAN ; Melody CHIANG ; Joseph STORCH ; Val M. ERWIN ; Laura G. HOLMES in Research in Autism, 123 (May 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 123 (May 2025) . - 202549 Titre : An online training for college sexual assault counselors who serve autistic students: User feasibility and satisfaction Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Martine CHASE, Auteur ; Regina SCARAMELLA, Auteur ; Brandy HABERER, Auteur ; Reid CAPLAN, Auteur ; Melody CHIANG, Auteur ; Joseph STORCH, Auteur ; Val M. ERWIN, Auteur ; Laura G. HOLMES, Auteur Article en page(s) : 202549 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Sexual assault  Counseling  College students  Violence Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Approximately 9.3 % of US autistic college students report experiencing unwanted sexual contact each year, and of these, 80 % report it interferes with their academic achievement. However, college-based sexual assault counselors and advocates often lack training and the expertise necessary to provide high-quality services to autistic students. This article describes a project that resulted in a free, online training resource for college sexual assault program counselors, advocates and other staff to expand their capacity to provide accessible support and counseling services to autistic college students who have experienced sexual assault. Method The training was designed in line with the Theory of Planned Behavior, using an intervention development framework (i.e., ADAPT-ITT), by experts in sexual assault, autism, and online training, and with input from six autistic individuals with relevant lived experience. We collected data from 27 beta-testers who provided written, qualitative feedback about the training. We used a content-based analysis approach. Results Participants felt that the training was helpful and provided an overview of basic information on autism in a clear, concise way. They appreciated that the training centered survivor voices, used a neurodivergent-embracing perspective, and included practical tips for practitioners. Participants also suggested changes, such as reducing the amount of text that users need to read to themselves, making the training more friendly for participants who use text-readers, and attending to particular autism-specific topics, like masking, more deeply. Conclusion Beta-testers were generally positive about this training, in part because it uses a neurodiversity-embracing and anti-ableist perspective. This is a free, online, self-paced training about autism, created with autistic individuals' input, and thus may be a good template for autism training of other professional groups.

Brief Report: Parent–Child Sexuality Communication and Autism Spectrum Disorders / Laura G. HOLMES in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-11 (November 2014)

Experts recommend that parents be the primary source of sex education for adolescents with ASD, and that sex education be tailored to a child’s developmental level. Prior studies show that parents of youth with ASD are uncertain about how to best communicate about sex and which topics to discuss with their children. In the current study we administered an online survey to 190 parents of adolescents with ASD in order to better understand sexuality communication patterns between parents and adolescents with both low and high functioning ASD.

Correlates of age at first alcohol use among a US-based sample of autistic underage youth / Calliope HOLINGUE in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 119 (January 2025)

ROTHMAN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.102520 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Alcohol  Substance use  Youth Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Recent research has identified risk factors for hazardous alcohol use among autistic individuals, but correlates of age at first alcohol use are unclear. Methods This study analyzed 49 U.S.-based autistic youth (ages 16-20) who had ever consumed alcohol. Participants were categorized as being less than 16 years old (n=28) or 16 years or older (n=21) at first alcohol use. The analysis aimed to descriptively compare youth with younger versus older age at first alcohol use. Results Younger age at first alcohol use was associated with hazardous alcohol use, higher levels of anxiety, and lower masking of autistic traits Conclusions These findings demonstrate that autistic youth are at risk for underage alcohol use. More research is needed on alcohol and substance use in this population to develop tailored prevention and intervention programs.

Family Sexuality Communication for Adolescent Girls on the Autism Spectrum / Laura G. HOLMES in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49-6 (June 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 49-6 (June 2019) . - p.2403-2416 Titre : Family Sexuality Communication for Adolescent Girls on the Autism Spectrum Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Laura G. HOLMES, Auteur ; D. S. STRASSBERG, Auteur ; Michael B. HIMLE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2403-2416 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Females  Gender  Puberty  Relationships  Sexuality and sexual health  Transition Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Families are critical for supporting healthy sexuality and relationship development for youth with autism. The objective of this study was to describe family sexuality communication for adolescent girls with autism. Participants were 141 parents of autistic daughters who completed an online survey about sexuality development. Most parents relied on discussion alone rather than visual supports or skills-based teaching techniques. Intellectual functioning, child age, race/ethnicity, and whether youth expressed sexual interest in others affected family sexuality communication. We discuss how most parents covered important basics, but many did not cover more nuanced relationship or sexual health topics during family sexuality communication. Few used enhanced instructional techniques (e.g., visual supports, social stories), suggesting potential utilization barriers such as a lack of affordable and available resources. There is a need for research accounting for diverse racial/ethnic backgrounds, sexual orientations including asexuality/demisexuality, and for transgender and gender diverse youth.
