Autistic youth and their caregivers both experienced significantly higher rates of ACEs than the non-autistic dyads. Intergenerational continuity, the association between caregiver and child ACEs, was significantly stronger for autistic youth. ACEs showed differential patterns of associations with parent depressive symptoms and child autistic traits across groups.

Frequency and correlates of augmentative and alternative communication use in an autistic inpatient sample / Elizabeth A. DELUCIA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-5 (May 2024)

This study evaluated how demographic and clinical factors (e.g., language level, IQ) related to AAC use in a well-characterized sample of 527 autistic youth (78.7% male, mean age 12.94) who participated in the Autism Inpatient Collection. AAC use was common, with 42.5% of caregivers reporting at least one form of AAC. White children were more likely to use AAC than non-white children at the bivariate level. In regression analyses, young children were more likely to use AAC than older children. These results suggest the importance of provider training and improved equitable access to AAC.

Intergenerational trauma: Parental PTSD and parent-reported child abuse subtypes differentially relate to admission characteristics in the autism inpatient collection / Christina G. MCDONNELL in Autism Research, 15-4 (April 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 15-4 (April 2022) . - p.665-676 Titre : Intergenerational trauma: Parental PTSD and parent-reported child abuse subtypes differentially relate to admission characteristics in the autism inpatient collection Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Christina G. MCDONNELL, Auteur ; Theresa M. ANDRZEJEWSKI, Auteur ; Janey DIKE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.665-676 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adolescent  Autism Spectrum Disorder  Autistic Disorder  Child  Child Abuse/psychology  Female  Historical Trauma  Hospitalization  Humans  Inpatients  Male  Parents  Stress Disorders, Post-Traumatic/epidemiology  autism  child abuse  intergenerational trauma  traumatic stress Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autistic youth experience high rates of maltreatment. Little research has considered how distinct abuse dimensions differentially relate to meaningful outcomes, nor taken an intergenerational approach to consider how caregiver trauma and child maltreatment are related. This study sought to identify how parent-reported child abuse subtypes and parent posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) relate to each other and to admission characteristics upon inpatient service entry. Autistic youth (N = 527; 79% White, 21.3% girls, mean age = 12.94?years) participated in the autism inpatient collection. Parents reported on child abuse subtypes (physical, sexual, emotional) and their own PTSD, child behavior and emergency services, and parenting stress. Youth of parents with PTSD were nearly three times more likely to have parent-reported physical and emotional abuse. Autistic girls were more likely to experience parent-reported sexual abuse and a higher number of subtypes. Lower income related to higher rates of parent-reported child emotional abuse and parent PTSD. Emotional abuse associated with child behavior whereas both child physical and emotional abuse related to emergency services. Reported parent PTSD associated with child behavior and parental distress. When considered jointly, parent PTSD and number of parent-reported child abuse subtypes differentially related to child behavior and interacted to predict psychiatric hospitalizations. Intergenerational continuity of trauma is important to consider among autistic youth, and both parent-reported child abuse and parent PTSD relate to admission characteristics. Critical limitations include reliance on binary parent reports of child abuse and parent PTSD and the low representation of youth of minoritized identities. Implications for trauma-informed care are discussed. LAY SUMMARY: Autistic youth whose parents had reported posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were nearly three times more likely to have experienced parent-reported physical and emotional abuse. Parent-reported child emotional abuse uniquely related to child behavioral concerns whereas both physical and emotional abuse related to higher emergency services. Parent PTSD also related to admission characteristics, showing that intergenerational continuity of trauma is critical to consider for understanding child maltreatment among autistic youth.

Maternal elaborative reminiscing mediates the effect of child maltreatment on behavioral and physiological functioning / Kristin VALENTINO in Development and Psychopathology, 27-4 (Part 2) (November 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 27-4 (Part 2) (November 2015) . - p.1515-1526 Titre : Maternal elaborative reminiscing mediates the effect of child maltreatment on behavioral and physiological functioning Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kristin VALENTINO, Auteur ; Leah C.

MCDONNELL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1515-1526 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Theoretical and empirical evidence suggest that the way in which parents discuss everyday emotional experiences with their young children (i.e., elaborative reminiscing) has significant implications for child cognitive and socioemotional functioning, and that maltreating parents have a particularly difficult time in engaging in this type of dialogue. This dyadic interactional exchange, therefore, has the potential to be an important process variable linking child maltreatment to developmental outcomes at multiple levels of analysis. The current investigation evaluated the role of maternal elaborative reminiscing in associations between maltreatment and child cognitive, emotional, and physiological functioning. Participants included 43 maltreated and 49 nonmaltreated children (aged 3–6) and their mothers. Dyads participated in a joint reminiscing task about four past emotional events, and children participated in assessments of receptive language and emotion knowledge. Child salivary cortisol was also collected from children three times a day (waking, midday, and bedtime) on 2 consecutive days to assess daily levels and diurnal decline. Results indicated that maltreating mothers engaged in significantly less elaborative reminiscing than did nonmaltreating mothers. Maternal elaborative reminiscing mediated associations between child maltreatment and child receptive language and child emotion knowledge. In addition, there was support for an indirect pathway between child maltreatment and child cortisol diurnal decline through maternal elaborative reminiscing. Directions for future research are discussed, and potential clinical implications are addressed.

Measurement invariance of Child Behavior Checklist internalizing and externalizing factors between non-speaking/partially verbal and speaking autistic children / Megan FOK in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 108 (October 2023)

Method The current study conducted a multi-group confirmatory factor analysis to examine the factorial invariance of the broadband internalizing and externalizing factor structure between 311 speaking and 1778 non-speaking/partially verbal (NSPV) autistic children using the Simons Simplex Collection (N = 2089), which represents a specific phenotypic presentation of autism. Results The two-factor structure achieved configural and metric but not scalar invariance, suggesting that, while the CBCL appears useful as a measure of EBC in autistic youth within language groups in our sample, the Internalizing and Externalizing domain scores might not be comparable between language groups due to measurement bias. Conclusions While EBC in autistic children can be measured using the CBCL, comparisons between NSPV and speaking children should be approached with caution. Measures that demonstrate invariance across language groups are a critical research priority in understanding how EBC manifest across ability levels, particularly in the development of appropriate mental health interventions. Considerations for practical implications of scalar non-invariance are discussed.
