Discrepancy in perceived social support among typically developing siblings of youth with autism spectrum disorder / Theodore S. TOMENY in Autism, 23-3 (April 2019)

This study included 112 parents and typically developing siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder. Relations between self-reported typically developing sibling emotional and behavioral problems and discrepancy between social support frequency and importance were examined via polynomial regression with response surface analysis. Typically developing siblings who described social support as frequent and important reported relatively few problems. Typically developing siblings who reported social support as highly important but infrequent exhibited the highest emotional and behavioral difficulties. Thus, typically developing siblings with little support who view support as highly important may be particularly responsive to social support improvement efforts.

Emotional and behavioral functioning of typically-developing sisters of children with autism spectrum disorder: The roles of ASD severity, parental stress, and marital status / Theodore S. TOMENY in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 32 (December 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 32 (December 2016) . - p.130-142 Titre : Emotional and behavioral functioning of typically-developing sisters of children with autism spectrum disorder: The roles of ASD severity, parental stress, and marital status Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Theodore S.

In addition to characteristics of the children with ASD, family contextual factors may also predict sibling adjustment. Method This study examined parent marital status and parental stress as moderators of the relation between ASD siblings’ symptom severity and emotional and behavioral adjustment in 56 TD sisters via self- and parent-report. Results At moderate and high levels of parental stress, TD sisters with siblings with relatively severe ASD symptomatology and with unmarried parents reported the highest levels of emotional and behavioral difficulties. Yet, TD sisters with siblings with relatively less severe ASD symptomatology and with unmarried parents reported the lowest levels of challenging behaviors and emotional symptoms. Conclusions These findings indicate that clinicians treating families of children with relatively severe ASD and unmarried parents should be particularly cognizant of the functioning of TD sisters.

A Model of Family and Child Functioning in Siblings of Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Megan E. TUDOR in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-4 (April 2018)

A total of 239 mothers of youth aged 6-17, including one youth with ASD (M = 11.14 years; simplex families) and at least one other youth (M = 11.74 years) completed online standardized measures of various familial factors and TD youth outcomes. Overall, only 6-23% of siblings were identified within the clinical range of emotional, behavioral, or social functioning. Both maternal depression and sibling relationship were identified as key pathways in predicting siblings' functioning within a good-fitting path analysis model. The current model is presented as a novel base for the development of future research and services for this unique population of children.

Non-autistic college students' responses to the social behavior of autistic peers / Olivia F. WARD ; Rachel L. HARMON ; Amaya B. MCCLAIN ; James A. RANKIN ; Theodore S. TOMENY in Research in Autism, 126 (August 2025)

This is often attributed to autistic social differences. Yet, how non-autistic peers receive and respond to autistic individuals is also predictive of social interaction outcomes. This study investigated how non-autistic college students' (n = 469, Mage = 18.62; 79.3 % female) previous experiences with autistic people and perceptions of autistic behavior related to their willingness to socially engage with a hypothetical autistic peer. We hypothesized that the relations between predictor variables: non-autistic peers' quality of previous contact, perceptions of autistic individuals' controllability and responsibility over their behavior, and criterion variables: attitudes about autism and willingness to engage with autistic individuals, would be mediated by the peers' affective responses to a hypothetical autistic individual. Positive affect mediated the relations between quality of previous contact and positive attitudes and willingness to engage, whereas there were no associations between perceived controllability or perceived responsibility and positive affect, positive attitudes, or willingness to engage. These findings highlight potential intervention points (e.g., fostering positive interactions with autistic people) that may reduce social interaction difficulties and associated negative mental health outcomes for autistic people.

Parent- and Self-Reported Social Skills Importance in Autism Spectrum Disorder / James A. RANKIN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-1 (January 2016)

Seventy-four parents and their children with ASD rated social skills importance and severity, as well as ASD-specific deficit severity. Parents and youth rated social skills as important overall; however, parents reported assertion and self-control to be more important than their children did. Severity and importance did not correlate overall. However, parent-report of responsibility deficits and importance were positively correlated, while youth-report of assertiveness deficits and importance were negatively correlated. Finally, ASD-specific social deficits were positively correlated with parent reported importance, but negatively correlated with child reported importance. Social skills importance ratings merit consideration in ASD assessment.
