Titre : Age of Initial Identification of Autism Spectrum Disorder in a Diverse Urban Sample Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jennifer HALL-LANDE, Auteur ; Amy N. ESLER, Auteur ; Amy HEWITT, Auteur ; Amy L. GUNTY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.798-803 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Age of initial identification Autism prevalence Autism spectrum disorder Developmental delays Diverse communities Early diagnosis Somali Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This paper examines age of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) identification and related factors in a diverse urban sample, focusing on ASD identification in the East African Somali community. The overall average age of initial ASD identification was 4.8 years. Somali children received an initial clinical diagnosis of Autistic Disorder later than White children, and Somali children diagnosed with ASD born outside of Minnesota (MN) received their first comprehensive evaluation later than Somali children diagnosed with ASD born in MN. Most children had noted developmental concerns before age 3, with no significant racial or ethnic differences in those concerns. The current study contributes to a limited number of studies on early ASD identification in culturally and linguistically diverse populations.

Titre : Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Prevalence in Somali and Non-Somali Children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Amy HEWITT, Auteur ; Jennifer HALL-LANDE, Auteur ; Kristin HAMRE, Auteur ; Amy N. ESLER, Auteur ; Judy PUNYKO, Auteur ; Joe REICHLE, Auteur ; Anab A. GULAID, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2599-2608 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Intellectual disability Autism prevalence Somali Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current study presents results from an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) public health surveillance project conducted in Minneapolis. The study was designed to compare ASD prevalence in Somali children (ages 7–9) to that of non-Somali children. The study adapted methodology used by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring Network. Results indicated that Somali (1 in 32) and White (1 in 36) children were about equally likely to be identified with ASD, but more likely to be identified with ASD than Black and Hispanic children. Somali children with ASD were significantly more likely to have an intellectual disability than children with ASD in all other racial and ethnic groups.

Titre : Involvement of Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the Child Protection System Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jennifer HALL-LANDE, Auteur ; Amy HEWITT, Auteur ; Shweta MISHRA, Auteur ; Kristine PIESCHER, Auteur ; Traci LALIBERTE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.237-248 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders child maltreatment disabilities Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study provides information about children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who are involved in the child protection system in a large, Midwestern state. Findings revealed that children with ASD (and children with other disabilities) were more likely to receive services from the child protection system (CPS) than children without disabilities. Children with ASD in CPS were more likely to be elementary school-age (6–10 years) and Caucasian than other children involved in CPS. Children diagnosed with ASD and other disabilities were significantly overrepresented for physical abuse as the primary reason for involvement in CPS. Parental mental health issues were more evident than was expected for families of children with ASD (17%) as compared with children diagnosed with other disabilities (10%) and children not diagnosed with any disability (10%). The implications of these findings as they relate to interventions for children with ASD in CPS are discussed.

Titre : Phenotypic Characteristics of Autism Spectrum Disorder in a Diverse Sample of Somali and Other Children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Amy N. ESLER, Auteur ; Jennifer HALL-LANDE, Auteur ; Amy HEWITT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3150-3165 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder Intellectual disability Phenotype Racial-ethnic Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The potential for culture to impact diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is high, yet remains largely unstudied. This study examined differences across racial/ethnic groups in ASD symptoms, cognitive and adaptive skills, and related behaviors in children with ASD that included a unique subgroup, children from the Somali diaspora. Somali children were more likely to have ASD with intellectual disability than children from all other racial/ethnic groups. Few differences were found in the presence of specific symptoms and behaviors across groups once IQ was controlled. Results lend support to previous studies that found higher rates of ASD intellectual disability in children of immigrants from low human resource index countries compared to other groups. Implications for future research are discussed. En ligne : https://doi.org/10.1007/s10803-017-3232-z Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=319
