Executive Functioning in Children with ASD: An Analysis of the BRIEF / E. M. A. BLIJD-HOOGEWYS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 44-12 (December 2014)

VAN GEERT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3089-3100 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Executive function  Cognitive flexibility  BRIEF  IQ Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Functions (BRIEF) screens for executive function deficits in 5- to 18-year-olds. Data of three autism subgroups, according to DSM-IV-TR criteria (N = 35 Autistic Disorder, N = 27 Asperger’s Disorder and N = 65 PDD-NOS), were analyzed. The total group has elevated scores on almost all BRIEF scales. The Shift scale is clinically elevated, reflecting a deficit in cognitive flexibility. The BRIEF scales are not found to discriminate among the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) subgroups. The relation between BRIEF and IQ is complex. Possible influencing factors are discussed. Finally, it is recommended to omit the Negativity scale as a validity index in children with ASD and to consider a high score on this index as a unique characteristic of their BRIEF profile, reflecting rigidity problems.

The Predictive Value of the AQ and the SRS-A in the Diagnosis of ASD in Adults in Clinical Practice / M. L. BEZEMER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-7 (July 2021)

However, their psychometric properties are generally not evaluated in clinical practice, and the comparability and applicability of such research is limited because questionnaires are often not simultaneously evaluated. This certainly pertains to predictive values which are highly population and setting specific. This study evaluated the power of AQ and SRS-A in predicting an ASD diagnosis within the same clinical population. The patient records of 92 adults, referred for autism assessment, were analyzed. The AQ proved somewhat better than the SRS-A at discriminating and predicting autism. The predictive values of both questionnaires were lower than reported in general population studies. Psychometric results in core publications appear less representative for clinical practice.
