Titre : Executive function predicts the development of play skills for verbal preschoolers with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Susan FAJA, Auteur ; Geraldine DAWSON, Auteur ; Katherine SULLIVAN, Auteur ; Andrew N. MELTZOFF, Auteur ; Annette ESTES, Auteur ; Raphael BERNIER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1274-1284 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism executive function inhibition spatial working memory play language Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Executive function and play skills develop in early childhood and are linked to cognitive and language ability. The present study examined these abilities longitudinally in two groups with autism spectrum disorder—a group with higher initial language (n?=?30) and a group with lower initial language ability (n?=?36). Among the lower language group, concurrent nonverbal cognitive ability contributed most to individual differences in executive function and play skills. For the higher language group, executive function during preschool significantly predicted play ability at age 6 over and above intelligence, but early play did not predict later executive function. These results suggested that factors related to the development of play and executive function differ for subgroups of children with different language abilities and that early executive function skills may be critical in order for verbal children with autism to develop play.

Titre : Measuring social communication behaviors as a treatment endpoint in individuals with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Evdokia ANAGNOSTOU, Auteur ; Nancy JONES, Auteur ; Marisela HUERTA, Auteur ; Alycia K. HALLADAY, Auteur ; Paul WANG, Auteur ; Lawrence SCAHILL, Auteur ; Joseph P. HORRIGAN, Auteur ; Connie KASARI, Auteur ; Cathy LORD, Auteur ; Dennis W. CHOI, Auteur ; Katherine SULLIVAN, Auteur ; Geraldine DAWSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.622-636 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders behavioral measurement outcome measures social cognition and social behavior Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Social communication impairments are a core deficit in autism spectrum disorder. Social communication deficit is also an early indicator of autism spectrum disorder and a factor in long-term outcomes. Thus, this symptom domain represents a critical treatment target. Identifying reliable and valid outcome measures for social communication across a range of treatment approaches is essential. Autism Speaks engaged a panel of experts to evaluate the readiness of available measures of social communication for use as outcome measures in clinical trials. The panel held monthly conference calls and two face-to-face meetings over 14?months. Key criteria used to evaluate measures included the relevance to the clinical target, coverage of the symptom domain, and psychometric properties (validity and reliability, as well as evidence of sensitivity to change). In all, 38 measures were evaluated and 6 measures were considered appropriate for use, with some limitations. This report discusses the relative strengths and weaknesses of existing social communication measures for use in clinical trials and identifies specific areas in need of further development.
