Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 25-3 (April 2021) . - p.695-704 Titre : Physical health needs and self-reported health status among adults with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Paul TURCOTTE, Auteur ; Lindsay SHEA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.695-704 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adults  autism spectrum disorders  health services  quality of life Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Self-reported health can be a powerful measure of how adults with autism spectrum disorder view their overall health. The goal of this study was to determine how health statuses of adults with autism spectrum disorder change, when they are currently receiving or need more physical health services. The Pennsylvania autism needs assessment included a survey of individuals with autism aged 18?years or older responding for themselves. They indicated whether their health status changed over the previous year as improved, decreased, or remained stable. We found that most adults with autism spectrum disorder had their health remain the same (68%). We also found that adults who said their health got worse needed more physical health services, compared to those whose health remained stable, or got better. Supporting the health of adults with autism can be complex and finding out more about how physical health services play a role in that care is important.

Service Needs Across the Lifespan for Individuals with Autism / Paul TURCOTTE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-7 (July 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-7 (July 2016) . - p.2480-2489 Titre : Service Needs Across the Lifespan for Individuals with Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Paul TURCOTTE, Auteur ; Mary MATHEW, Auteur ; Lindsay L. SHEA, Auteur ; Eugene BRUSILOVSKIY, Auteur ; Stacy L. NONNEMACHER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2480-2489 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Services  Policy  Adult  Needs Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The goal of this research was to examine reported service needs among individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) of all ages. Data were generated from a state survey that queried the needs of children, adolescents and adults with ASD. Logistic regression was used to compare service use and need among these age groups. Adults with ASD were less likely to be receiving multiple types of services, and more likely to have a need for services. These findings demonstrate that adults with ASD have more and different needs for services. These results can inform policy and program planning to put in place the services adults with ASD need.
