Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 32-3 (September 2017) . - p.163-175 Titre : Autism and Self-Determination: Factor Analysis of Two Measures of Self-Determination Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yu-Chi CHOU, Auteur ; Michael L. WEHMEYER, Auteur ; Karrie A. SHOGREN, Auteur ; Susan B. PALMER, Auteur ; Jaehoon LEE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.163-175 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined the reliability and validity and hypothesized factor structure of two assessments of self-determination, the Arc?s Self-Determination Scale (SDS) and the American Institutes for Research Self-Determination Scale (AIR) in students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Ninety-five middle and high school students (17% female and 83% male) aged 13 through 21 years participated. Item analysis and confirmatory factor analysis were conducted separately for the SDS and AIR data. Together, the findings of this study suggest that (a) the two measures in this study show reliability and validity in the measurement of global self-determination in students with ASD and (b) the parameter estimates and the model fit statistics support the hypothesized factor structure of both instruments (with light variation for the SDS). Suggestions for future research and implications for educators are discussed.

Comparisons of Self-Determination Among Students With Autism, Intellectual Disability, and Learning Disabilities: A Multivariate Analysis / Yu-Chi CHOU in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 32-2 (June 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 32-2 (June 2017) . - p.124-132 Titre : Comparisons of Self-Determination Among Students With Autism, Intellectual Disability, and Learning Disabilities: A Multivariate Analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yu-Chi CHOU, Auteur ; Michael L. WEHMEYER, Auteur ; Susan B. PALMER, Auteur ; Jaehoon LEE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.124-132 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : self-determination, autism, The Arc’s Self-Determination Scale, intellectual disability, learning disabilities Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined differences in self-determination among students with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), students with intellectual disability (ID), and students with learning disabilities (LD). A total of 222 participants with an equal size group for each of the three disability categories were selected to participate in the comparison of total self-determination and domain scores. A multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) was performed on four dependent variables (DVs)/factors, including autonomy, self-regulation, psychological empowerment, and self-realization. The results indicated that students with ASD had significantly lower levels of autonomy compared with students in either other group; that students with ID had significantly lower levels of self-regulation than students with LD, but not significantly different from students with ASD; that students with ASD and students with ID had significantly lower levels of psychological empowerment than students with LD; and that students with ID had significantly lower levels of self-realization than students with LD, but not significantly different from students with ASD. Suggestions for future research and implications for educators were also discussed.
