Clinician factors related to the delivery of psychotherapy for autistic youth and youth with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder / Flora ROUDBARANI in Autism, 27-2 (February 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 27-2 (February 2023) . - p.415-427 Titre : Clinician factors related to the delivery of psychotherapy for autistic youth and youth with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Flora ROUDBARANI, Auteur ; Paula TABLON-MODICA, Auteur ; Brenna B.

Recent research indicates that clinician factors, such as knowledge, attitudes, confidence and beliefs, can impact their decisions to provide care, though this work has primarily focused on adults or within the context of one kind of treatment (cognitive behaviour therapy). The current study examined psychological predictors (e.g. attitudes and confidence) of clinicians’ intention to deliver psychotherapy to autistic youth and those with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Participants included 611 clinicians across publicly funded agencies in Ontario, Canada. Multiple mediation analyses revealed that clinician knowledge on mental health-related topics (e.g. core symptoms, developing treatment plans and identifying progress towards treatment goals) was associated with intention to treat autistic clients or clients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, and normative pressures and attitudes partially mediated this association. Clinicians felt less likely to treat autistic clients than clients with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, partly because of differences in attitudes, normative pressures and knowledge. This research suggests that targeted training around autism and mental health care may be a useful initiative for agency staff.

Parenting Stress as a Correlate of Cognitive Behavior Therapy Responsiveness in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders and Anxiety / Jonathan A. WEISS in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 30-3 (September 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 30-3 (September 2015) . - p.154-164 Titre : Parenting Stress as a Correlate of Cognitive Behavior Therapy Responsiveness in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorders and Anxiety Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jonathan A.

Eighteen children (8–12 years of age, M = 9.5, SD = 1.34; male: n = 15) with ASD and significant anxiety problems participated in a 12-session group “Coping Cat” intervention together with their parents. Statistically significant reductions were noted across measures of parent-reported child anxiety, with 50% of children demonstrating clinically meaningful improvements using the conservative Reliable Change Index. Significant correlations were found between change in parenting stress and change in child anxiety from pre- to post-treatment. These results are applicable to the community service sector, where the Coping Cat program is commonly utilized. Due to the high prevalence of anxiety disorders in children with ASD, further research is needed to advance capacity building to help meet the significant needs of youth with ASD and anxiety.

Treatment Engagement as a Predictor of Therapy Outcome Following Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Autistic Children / Carly S. ALBAUM in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-10 (October 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 54-10 (October 2024) . - p.3575-3586 Titre : Treatment Engagement as a Predictor of Therapy Outcome Following Cognitive Behaviour Therapy for Autistic Children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Carly S. ALBAUM, Auteur ; Teresa SELLITTO, Auteur ; Nisha VASHI, Auteur ; Yvonne BOHR, Auteur ; Jonathan A. WEISS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3575-3586 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Active engagement in one?s therapy is a key contributor to successful outcomes. Research on child engagement in cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) has largely focused on youth without autism. This longitudinal study examined multiple indicators of child engagement in relation to outcomes for autistic children who took part in CBT for emotion regulation. Method: Data were collected from 60 autistic children who were between 8 and 13 years of age (86.7% male; Mage = 9.58 years, SD = 1.44 years; 75% White). Indicators of child engagement included independent observer ratings of in-session involvement, as measured by the Child Involvement Rating Scale, and therapist ratings of the therapeutic relationship and homework completion using single-item measures. Indicators of engagement were measured at early (i.e., first third), middle (i.e., mid third), and late (i.e., final third) stages of treatment. Parent-reported emotion regulation was the primary treatment outcome, as measured by the Emotion Regulation Checklist. Results: After controlling for pre-treatment scores, in-session involvement significantly predicted some aspects of post-treatment emotion regulation, whereas therapeutic relationship and homework completion did not. Conclusions: Child in-session involvement throughout therapy may be particularly relevant for treatment change. Addressing issues related to in-session involvement early in treatment may help to promote therapeutic success for autistic children.
