Gist perception in adolescents with and without ASD: Ultra-rapid categorization of meaningful real-life scenes / Steven VANMARCKE in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 29-30 (September–October 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 29-30 (September–October 2016) . - p.30-47 Titre : Gist perception in adolescents with and without ASD: Ultra-rapid categorization of meaningful real-life scenes Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Steven VANMARCKE, Auteur ; Lotte VAN ESCH, Auteur ; Ruth VAN DER HALLEN, Auteur ; Kris EVERS, Auteur ; Ilse NOENS, Auteur ; Jean STEYAERT, Auteur ; Johan WAGEMANS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.30-47 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Vision research  Ultra-rapid categorization  Theory of mind  Reverse hierarchy theory  Developmental effects Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Previous research has suggested the presence of a reduced preference to report and spontaneously interpret the global properties of a scene picture in adults with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Contrary to what is seen in typically developing (TD) participants, gist perception in ASD seems to occur mostly in a more explicit manner with focused attention. The current study used a set of non-social and social ultra-rapid categorization tasks to investigate gist perception in adolescents with and without ASD. When we instructed the participants to rapidly identify briefly presented object or scene information, we found that adolescents with ASD performed worse than TD participants. These findings complemented our previous study on ultra-rapid categorization in adults with or without ASD, in which no group-level differences in gist perception were observed. When categorization specifically entailed the fast processing of socially salient information, both adolescents and adults with ASD performed worse than TD participants. The combination of these results suggests an age-dependent improvement in general categorization ability but more long-lasting difficulties in rapid social categorization in individuals with ASD. We suggest that the poorer general performance of adolescents with ASD results from a less efficient rapid processing of global semantic structure.

The current study examined differences in parenting behaviors between mothers of school-aged children with ASD (n = 30) and mothers of typically developing children (n = 39), using both an observational measure and a self-report questionnaire. Results indicated that mothers of children with ASD obtained significantly lower scores on Sensitivity and Provision of structure as measured during the observation. They reported significantly higher scores on Material rewarding and Adapting the environment on the questionnaire. When controlling for parenting stress, the group differences on Sensitivity and Material rewarding did not remain significant.

Parenting adolescents with ASD: A multimethod study / Lotte VAN ESCH in Autism Research, 11-7 (July 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 11-7 (July 2018) . - p.1000-1010 Titre : Parenting adolescents with ASD: A multimethod study Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lotte VAN ESCH, Auteur ; Steven VANMARCKE, Auteur ; Eva CEULEMANS, Auteur ; Karla VAN LEEUWEN, Auteur ; Ilse NOENS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1000-1010 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  adolescence  observation  parenting behavior  parenting stress  questionnaire Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A number of studies have concluded that parents of children with ASD experience high levels of parenting stress. However, little is known about their parenting behaviors. Especially few studies investigated parenting in adolescence, although this period is associated with additional challenges for both adolescents and their parents. In the present study, a multi-method approach was used, combining data from a self-report questionnaire and observation of mother-child interactions during different semi-structured (e.g., inventing and building a vehicle of the future with construction toys) and structured tasks (e.g., solving marble maze). Linear mixed models (LMM) were used to compare the means of parenting behaviors among mothers of adolescents with (n = 44) and without ASD (n = 38), aged 12 to 16 years old. During the observations, mothers of adolescents with ASD showed more sensitivity and creativity, compared to the general population control group. In addition, mothers in the ASD group reported on the self-report questionnaire to adapt the environment more, for example, by establishing routines. Furthermore, this study investigated the role of maternal characteristics, that is, ASD characteristics and parenting stress. Parenting stress was associated with less self-reported positive parenting. Higher levels of ASD characteristics of the mother were related to more negativity and less sensitivity during the observation, and more self-reported harsh punishment and adapting the environment. This study additionally examined whether the impact of these maternal characteristics was the same across the two groups. Whereas group by parenting stress interaction effects were not significant for any of the observed and self-reported parenting behaviors, significant group by ASD characteristics interaction effects were noticed for self-reported harsh punishment and adapting the environment.

LAY SUMMARY: A number of studies have concluded that parents of children with ASD experience high levels of parenting stress. However, little is known about their parenting behaviors. Especially parenting in adolescence remains under investigated, although this period is associated with additional challenges for both adolescents and their parents. In this study, 44 adolescents with ASD and a control group of 38 adolescents without ASD, aged 12-16 years old, participated together with their mother. We compared parenting behaviors between the two groups, based on observations of mother-child interactions and a questionnaire that was filled out by the mother. During the observation, mothers of adolescents with ASD showed more sensitivity and creativity, compared to the control group. In addition, the questionnaire responses indicated that mothers in the ASD group adapted the environment more by for example, establishing routines. Furthermore, this study investigated the role of parenting stress and ASD characteristics of the mother on parenting behavior. Parenting stress was associated with less self-reported positive parenting. Higher levels of ASD characteristics of the mother were related to more negativity and less sensitivity during the observation in both groups, and more self-reported harsh punishment and adapting the environment in the control group only.

Parenting Behavior in Mothers of Preschool Children with ASD: Development of a Self-Report Questionnaire / G. LAMBRECHTS in Autism Research and Treatment, 2015 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research and Treatment > 2015 (2015) Titre : Parenting Behavior in Mothers of Preschool Children with ASD: Development of a Self-Report Questionnaire Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : G. LAMBRECHTS, Auteur ; Jarymke MALJAARS, Auteur ; Hannah BOONEN, Auteur ; Lotte VAN ESCH, Auteur ; Karla VAN LEEUWEN, Auteur ; Ilse NOENS, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Parents of young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) encounter many daily challenges and often experience much stress. However, little research exists about parenting behavior among these parents. With this study, we aim to address this gap. We examined the structure and internal consistency of a questionnaire intended to measure parenting behavior among mothers of young children with ASD. Furthermore, we compared parenting behavior among mothers of young children with and without ASD between two and six years old. Factor analyses resulted in a factor solution with seven subscales of parenting behavior. Two additional subscales especially relevant for parenting preschoolers with ASD were also considered. Analyses of covariance, controlling for gender and age, showed significantly higher scores for Discipline and Stimulating the Development in the control group in comparison with the ASD group. These findings suggest that mothers of preschoolers with ASD are still trying to find strategies to guide and stimulate their child's behavior and development effectively.

Parenting behaviours among mothers of pre-schoolers on the autism spectrum: Associations with parenting stress and children’s externalising behaviour problems / Melinda MADAREVIC in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 90 (February 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 90 (February 2022) . - 101901 Titre : Parenting behaviours among mothers of pre-schoolers on the autism spectrum: Associations with parenting stress and children’s externalising behaviour problems Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Melinda MADAREVIC, Auteur ; Lotte VAN ESCH, Auteur ; Greet LAMBRECHTS, Auteur ; Eva CEULEMANS, Auteur ; Karla VAN LEEUWEN, Auteur ; Ilse NOENS, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101901 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Parenting behaviours  Parenting stress  Externalising behaviour problems  Autism  Pre-schoolers Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Parents of pre-schoolers diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) report increased parenting stress (i.e., stress related to the parent role) and more behaviour problems of the child compared with parents of non-autistic pre-schoolers. Parenting stress and children’s behaviour problems are both associated with parenting behaviours, but have not yet been investigated together. Method 42 mothers of autistic and non-autistic pre-schoolers were observed during mother-child interaction and they reported on parenting behaviours, parenting stress, and children’s externalising behaviour problems. Spearman correlations between all variables were calculated for the ASD group and the non-ASD group separately, and Linear Mixed Models were built to investigate whether parenting stress and externalising behaviour problems were similarly associated to parenting behaviours in both groups. Results Mothers in the ASD group reported more parenting stress and more externalising behaviour problems than mothers in the non-ASD group. In the ASD group only, parenting stress was related to externalising behaviour problems but not to the level of autism characteristics. In both groups, more externalising behaviour problems were associated with more observed negative parenting behaviours (i.e., criticising and ignoring the child), and more parenting stress was associated with less reported autonomy support. Conclusions Our findings indicate that in the case of possibly problematic parenting behaviours, such as negativity and lack of autonomy support, it is important to investigate associated factors like parenting stress and children’s behaviour problems. An individualised strengths and needs assessment could then offer a tailored intervention to families with an autistic pre-schooler.
