Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-8 (August 2020) . - p.3018-3031 Titre : Family Sexuality Communication: Parent Report for Autistic Young Adults Versus a Comparison Group Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura GRAHAM HOLMES, Auteur ; Donald S STRASSBERG, Auteur ; Michael B HIMLE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3018-3031 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adults with autism  Autistic adults  Family sexuality communication  Parent–child sexuality communication  Sexual and reproductive health Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Families are a critical context for healthy sexuality development. This study characterized family sexuality communication for autistic adults (age 18-30) without intellectual disability (n?=?117) versus a neurotypical comparison group (n?=?319). Parent-reported number of sexuality topics covered did not significantly differ by gender or autism/comparison group. Parents of autistic adults who covered few or no topics (31%) reported higher religiosity, lower comfort and self-efficacy, and were less likely to say that the adult expressed attraction or desire for relationships. Parents of autistic adults were more likely than comparison parents to perceive their young person as being uninterested or not ready to learn about sexuality topics. These results suggest that families of autistic people require support to convey sexuality-related knowledge and values.

Parental romantic expectations and parent–child sexuality communication in autism spectrum disorders / Laura G HOLMES in Autism, 20-6 (August 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 20-6 (August 2016) . - p.687-699 Titre : Parental romantic expectations and parent–child sexuality communication in autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura G HOLMES, Auteur ; Michael B HIMLE, Auteur ; Donald S STRASSBERG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.687-699 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adolescence  parent–child sexuality communication  puberty  quality of life  relationships  sexual development  sexual health  sexuality  sexuality education Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined the relationship between core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder, parental romantic expectations, and parental provision of sexuality and relationship education in an online sample of 190 parents of youth 12–18?years of age with a parent-reported diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder. Regression analyses were conducted separately for youth with autism spectrum disorder?+?parent-reported average or above IQ and youth with autism spectrum disorder?+?parent-reported below average IQ. For youth with autism spectrum disorder?+?parent-reported average or above IQ, autism spectrum disorder severity predicted parental romantic expectations, but not parental provision of sexuality and relationship education. For youth with autism spectrum disorder?+?parent-reported below average IQ, parental romantic expectations mediated the relationship between autism spectrum disorder severity and parent provision of sexuality and relationship education. This supports the importance of carefully considering intellectual functioning in autism spectrum disorder sexuality research and suggests that acknowledging and addressing parent expectations may be important for parent-focused sexuality and relationship education interventions.
