Do Adults with High Functioning Autism or Asperger Syndrome Differ in Empathy and Emotion Recognition? / Charlotte B. MONTGOMERY in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-6 (June 2016)

The Empathy Quotient (EQ) and ‘Reading the Mind in the Eyes’ Test (Eyes Test) were compared in 43 adults with AS and 43 adults with HFA. No significant difference was observed on EQ score between groups, while adults with AS performed significantly better on the Eyes Test than those with HFA. This suggests that adults with HFA may need more support, particularly in mentalizing and complex emotion recognition, and raises questions about the existence of subgroups within autism spectrum conditions.

Increasing Face Mask Wearing in Autistic Individuals Using Behavior Analytic Interventions: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis / Rebekah COWELL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-11 (November)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 54-11 (November) . - p.4061-4080 Titre : Increasing Face Mask Wearing in Autistic Individuals Using Behavior Analytic Interventions: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rebekah COWELL, Auteur ; Athanasios VOSTANIS, Auteur ; Peter E. LANGDON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4061-4080 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of behavior-analytic procedures in increasing face mask-wearing in autistic individuals. This comes following recommended guidance during the COVID-19 pandemic. A systematic review and meta-analysis were completed of peer-reviewed and grey literature. Six databases were searched and seven studies using single-case experimental designs met the eligibility criteria which were then quality appraised. Data were extracted on participant characteristics, study design, independent and dependent variables, fidelity, generalization, maintenance, and social validity outcomes. Both the non-overlap of all pairs and Baseline Corrected TAU were used to estimate effect size. Two studies were rated strong and borderline strong quality and five were rated as adequate or below. All studies showed positive outcomes for mask-wearing, with an average of 0.92 for non-overlap of all pairs and 0.47 for Baseline Corrected Tau effect sizes. The most common and effective procedures for increasing mask-wearing were graded exposure and differential and positive reinforcement. Factors such as mode of delivery, implementer, and setting did not appear to influence study outcomes. Procedures were found to be rated as acceptable by parents and professionals in five of the studies. The existing literature on increasing face mask-wearing in autistic individuals provides promising findings to add to existing literature around increasing tolerance to medical equipment and hygiene practices in autistic populations. However, these findings are based on a small sample size, with six of the studies taking place in the United States with varying study quality.

“It fostered a greater appreciation for my little corner of the world”: A feasibility study of a therapeutic photography intervention for the well-being of autistic youth / Marina CHARALAMPOPOULOU in Autism, 29-11 (November 2025)

This has resulted in a shortage of interventions addressing the promotion of positive emotional (hedonic) and psychological (eudaimonic) states. Therapeutic photography, which refers to self-initiated photo-taking paired with mindful reflections of the photographs, has the potential to provide an accessible and scalable approach to promote positive mental health for autistic people. This study employed a mixed-methods design to investigate the development and feasibility of a novel therapeutic photography intervention intended to promote hedonic and eudaimonic well-being among autistic youth. Forty-one autistic youth between 16 and 25 years of age were recruited. Findings indicated that therapeutic photography was a feasible intervention in terms of demand, implementation, acceptability, and practicality. There was also preliminary evidence suggesting that therapeutic photography may be a promising intervention for the promotion of different aspects of hedonic and eudaimonic well-being. Suggestions for future intervention adaptations to better address the needs of autistic youth are also featured.Lay Abstract Using Photography to Increase the Well-Being in Autistic YouthPast research has mostly focused on the challenges and negative mental health experiences of autistic young people, leading to a lack of strategies aimed at increasing positive emotions and experiences. To address this gap in the literature, we developed a therapeutic photography intervention that aimed to increase positive aspects of well-being for autistic youth. With the help of two autistic advisors, we recruited 41 autistic people, between the ages of 16 and 25 years, and asked them to take photos of positive experiences and write short reflections about their photos, for the duration of 4 weeks. We then asked participants about the benefits and challenges of the intervention. We also asked participants about any challenges they had in engaging with therapeutic photography and any changes and additional supports they would recommend for the intervention. Our results showed that autistic young people found the intervention to be interesting, doable, acceptable, and practical. We also found some evidence for the potential benefits of the intervention for the well-being of autistic youth. Participants had different ideas for adapting the design of the intervention to better meet the needs of autistic youth in the future.

Social Media and Cyber-Bullying in Autistic Adults / Paraskevi TRIANTAFYLLOPOULOU in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-11 (November 2022)

To investigate this, 78 autistic adults completed self-report measures of social media use, cyber-bullying victimisation, cyber-aggression, and self-esteem. High levels of social media use were found to be associated with an increased risk of cyber-victimisation; whereas self-esteem was positively correlated with feelings of belonging to an online community and negatively correlated with feelings of being ignored on social network sites and chat rooms. Future studies are needed to further investigate the experience of cyber-bullying victimisation of autistic adults.

The Factor Structure and Validity of the Psychopathy Checklist-Short Version When Used With Autistic Psychiatric Inpatients / Kate MAGUIRE in Autism Research, 18-3 (March 2025)

This study aimed to assess the reliability and validity of the PCL:SV with autistic adults detained in inpatient psychiatric care. Data were collected from 282 autistic adults at two time points separated by 12-months. Reliability and validity were investigated using omega, regression, receiver operating characteristic curves, and correlational analysis. PCL:SV Total, Factor 1, and Factor 2 had satisfactory to high reliability and construct validity. Higher PCL:SV scores were associated with poorer treatment progress, a longer length of stay, and previous criminal offending. Factor 1 was associated with a forensic history, detention under Part III of the Mental Health Act, and a personality disorder diagnosis, while Factor 2 was also associated with the absence of a forensic history, detention under Part II of the Mental Health Act, but not a personality disorder diagnosis. It was thought that Factor 2 most likely captured data associated with autism and/or intellectual disabilities (e.g., behaviors that challenge). Those with intellectual disabilities were less likely to have convictions, a history of violent offending, or a forensic history. They were also more likely to be detained under Part II of the Mental Health Act, and were more likely to have had a positive transfer 12-months later to a ward with lesser security. The PCL-SV correlated as expected with the HCR-20 and the START. This study provides preliminary evidence to support the use of the PCL:SV with autistic adults, including those with intellectual disabilities, within inpatient psychiatric hospitals.
