Brief Report: Discrimination of Foreign Speech Pitch and Autistic Traits in Non-Clinical Population / Lai-Sang IAO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-1 (January 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 48-1 (January 2018) . - p.284-289 Titre : Brief Report: Discrimination of Foreign Speech Pitch and Autistic Traits in Non-Clinical Population Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lai-Sang IAO, Auteur ; Anna WIPPICH, Auteur ; Yu Hin LAM, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.284-289 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Quotient  Individual differences  Language experience  Musical experience  Pitch discrimination Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Individuals with Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC) are widely suggested to show enhanced perceptual discrimination but inconsistent findings have been reported for pitch discrimination. Given the high variability in ASC, this study investigated whether ASC traits were correlated with pitch discrimination in an undergraduate sample when musical and language experiences were taken into consideration. Results indicated that the social skills subscale of the Autism Spectrum Quotient was associated with foreign speech pitch discrimination, suggesting that individuals who were less sociable and socially skillful were less able to discriminate foreign speech pitch. Current findings have an implication in investigating individual differences in ASC and further investigation is needed for spelling out the relationship between the non-social and social aspects of ASC.

Comparison of the Factor Structure of the Child Behavior Checklist 1.5–5 between Children with ASD and Children with DD / Yi-Ling CHENG in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 89 (November 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 89 (November 2021) . - 101867 Titre : Comparison of the Factor Structure of the Child Behavior Checklist 1.5–5 between Children with ASD and Children with DD Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yi-Ling CHENG, Auteur ; Lai-Sang IAO, Auteur ; Chin-Chin WU, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101867 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  developmental delay  CBCL1.5–5  measurement invariance Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background The Child Behavior Checklist 1.5–5 (CBCL 1.5–5) has been applied to identify emotional and behavioral problems on children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, few studies explored whether the established factor model may be suitable for children with ASD and those with developmental delay (DD). Method To locate the potential sources of variations between these two groups, we tested measurement invariance multiple groups factor analysis. Results All subscales achieved the basic level of invariance (configural invariance). The findings suggested similar factor structures across these two groups. However, Withdrawn, Aggressive Behavior, and Sleep Problems did not achieve metric invariance. The findings suggested the relations between items and latent constructs are not similar across groups in these three scales. Conclusions Overall, there are different levels of invariances across subscales of the CBCL1.5–5. The attempt of using the CBCL1.5–5 to separate the profile of children with ASD and children with DD might be helpful, but only on particular aspects.

Development of the Childhood Autism Rating Scale-Brief Form for early detection of autism spectrum disorder in toddlers under three / Yuh-Ming HOU ; Lai-Sang IAO ; Chin-Chin WU in Research in Autism, 126 (August 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 126 (August 2025) . - p.202645 Titre : Development of the Childhood Autism Rating Scale-Brief Form for early detection of autism spectrum disorder in toddlers under three Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yuh-Ming HOU, Auteur ; Lai-Sang IAO, Auteur ; Chin-Chin WU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.202645 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Childhood Autism Rating Scale  Brief Form  Developmental delays  Sensitivity  Specificity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Early diagnosis and intervention could improve the prognosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study aimed to investigate the validity of the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS) in toddlers with ASD under 3 years and develop an efficient abbreviated version for early diagnosis of ASD. Methods Two studies were conducted to evaluate the validity of the CARS for detecting ASD. Study 1 examined the differences between 30 toddlers with ASD and 30 toddlers with developmental delays (DD) and analyzed the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Critical items were selected as the CARS-Brief Form (CARS-BF) and cutoff scores were determined. Study 2 involved 206 toddlers, including 115 with ASD, 34 with mild-ASD, and 57 with DD, to validate the utility of the CARS-BF. Results Study 1 identified 7 items for the CARS-BF and found the optimal cutoff scores to be 12.5 and 13. Study 2 confirmed the optimal cutoff score of 12.5 and 13 for the CARS-BF and demonstrated good accuracy. Besides, the cutoff score of 13 exhibited high sensitivity (88.7 %) and specificity (84.2 %). Conclusion The CARS-BF demonstrated a high level of accuracy. It can be utilized as an effective tool for identifying toddlers with ASD in clinical settings.

Early screening for autism spectrum disorder in young children with developmental problems using the Chinese version of the child behavior checklist / Lai-Sang IAO in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 70 (February 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 70 (February 2020) . - p.101477 Titre : Early screening for autism spectrum disorder in young children with developmental problems using the Chinese version of the child behavior checklist Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lai-Sang IAO, Auteur ; Wen-Han YU, Auteur ; Chin-Chin WU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.101477 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Child behavior checklist/1.5–5 (CBCL/1.5–5)  Emotional and behavioral problems  Sensitivity  Specificity Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by impairments in social interaction and communication, as well as repetitive patterns of behaviors and restricted interests. Current evidence suggested that children with ASD exhibited high level of co-occurring behavioral and emotional problems. Thus, this study was aimed to investigate the utility of the Chinese version of the Child Behavior Checklist for Ages 1.5–5 (CBCL/1.5–5) for assessing and screening ASD at an early age in Taiwan. Methods The CBCL/1.5–5 was completed by the caregivers of 134 clinically referred young children aged 18–47 months, including 66 children with ASD and 68 children with developmental delay (DD). Results The findings of this study showed that young children with ASD scored significantly higher than young children with DD for the following scales: Internalizing, Anxious/Depressed, Withdrawn, Attention Problems and Pervasive Developmental Problems (PDP). The results also showed that the Withdrawn scale yielded the best discrimination between the two groups using a T-score of 66 as cutoff. The area under the curve, sensitivity and specificity were .83, .74, and .77 respectively. Conclusion The findings of this study supported that the CBCL/1.5–5, especially the Withdrawn scale of the syndrome scale, could be used to differentiate young children with ASD from those with DD in Taiwan. Replication with a larger sample size is needed to validate the findings.

Participants included 75 young children with ASD (Time 1; mean age = 25.68 months) and their parents. Parenting stress that was related to parent's perceptions on child characteristics was found to predict externalizing behavioral problems in young children with ASD across two time points. However, behavioral problems in young children with ASD did not predict parenting stress. These findings provide implications for early intervention and family services for young children with ASD and their families.
