Although advocacy programs are becoming more common in the United States, none of these programs target Latino families. This is a pilot study to examine the feasibility and effectiveness of an advocacy program for Latino families of children with ASD. Using a quasi-experimental design, 40 Latino family members of children with ASD participated in this study. Results demonstrated consistent attendance, low attrition, and high participant satisfaction. Intervention (versus control) group participants demonstrated significantly increased empowerment and special education knowledge, and stronger family–school partnerships. Findings provide preliminary support for advocacy programs for Latino families of children with ASD.

Clinical Validity of the ADI-R in a US-Based Latino Population / Sandra B. VANEGAS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-5 (May 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-5 (May 2016) . - p.1623-1635 Titre : Clinical Validity of the ADI-R in a US-Based Latino Population Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sandra B. VANEGAS, Auteur ; Sandra MAGAÑA, Auteur ; Miguel MORALES, Auteur ; Ellyn MCNAMARA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1623-1635 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ADI-R  Latino  Spanish version  Autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) has been validated as a tool to aid in the diagnosis of Autism; however, given the growing diversity in the United States, the ADI-R must be validated for different languages and cultures. This study evaluates the validity of the ADI-R in a US-based Latino, Spanish-speaking population of 50 children and adolescents with ASD and developmental disability. Sensitivity and specificity of the ADI-R as a diagnostic tool were moderate, but lower than previously reported values. Validity of the social reciprocity and restrictive and repetitive behaviors domains was high, but low in the communication domain. Findings suggest that language discordance between caregiver and child may influence reporting of communication symptoms and contribute to lower sensitivity and specificity.

Implementing a Parent Education Intervention in Colombia: Assessing Parent Outcomes and Perceptions Across Delivery Modes / Sandra MAGAÑA in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 36-3 (September 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 36-3 (September 2021) . - p.165-175 Titre : Implementing a Parent Education Intervention in Colombia: Assessing Parent Outcomes and Perceptions Across Delivery Modes Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sandra MAGAÑA, Auteur ; Marie TEJERO HUGHES, Auteur ; Kristen SALKAS, Auteur ; Wendy GONZALES, Auteur ; Giselle NÚÑEZ, Auteur ; Miguel MORALES, Auteur ; Mariana GARCIA TORRES, Auteur ; Marisol MORENO-ANGARITA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.165-175 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders  parent training  multicultural issues Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Knowledge and identification of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are increasing in Latin America, yet there are limited resources available to help families of children with ASD. For this study, researchers adapted and tested a parent educational program created for Latino immigrant parents of children with ASD in the United States to the needs of parents of children with ASD in Colombia. Parents were randomized into two intervention delivery modes, one led by parents and the other by students. All measures were self-reported by parents (n = 20). Parents improved in understanding their child’s strengths and needs and frequency of using evidence-based strategies. Parents in the student-led group reported significantly lower depressive symptoms between baseline and follow-up. In focus groups, parents expressed satisfaction with the intervention and described ways they were using the information. This study demonstrated promising results to improve the experience of parents of children with ASD in Colombia.
