Establishing a sexual identity: Case studies of learners with autism and learning difficulties / Catherine TISSOT in Autism, 13-6 (November 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 13-6 (November 2009) . - p.551-566 Titre : Establishing a sexual identity: Case studies of learners with autism and learning difficulties Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Catherine TISSOT, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.551-566 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism severe-learning-difficulty sexual-identity sexuality Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The physical and emotional changes that occur in adolescence are part of the process of sexual maturity. These changes occur irrespective of ability and are often aligned with psychological and social factors. When the nature of a disability has an inherent limitation in social awareness, as is the case for individuals with autism, the achievement of personal sexual identity can become much more complex. Challenges in supporting individuals in this respect can be caused by the sensitive aspects of inappropriate behaviour, the abstract nature of teaching the topic, and the general reluctance on the part of parents and staff to discuss sexuality in individuals with disabilities. This article explores how a residential school addressed this gap. It provides details of how this need was met for seven students and the process undertaken to involve staff, parents and other stakeholders to establish ongoing support.

Autistic disorder symptoms in Rett syndrome / Josette WULFFAERT in Autism, 13-6 (November 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 13-6 (November 2009) . - p.567-581 Titre : Autistic disorder symptoms in Rett syndrome Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Josette WULFFAERT, Auteur ; Evert M. SCHOLTE, Auteur ; Ina A. VAN BERCKELAER-ONNES, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.567-581 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism autistic-disorder classification PDD Rett-syndrome Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : According to the major classification systems it is not possible to diagnose a comorbid autistic disorder in persons with Rett syndrome. However, this is a controversial issue, and given the level of functioning of persons with Rett syndrome, the autistic disorder is expected to be present in a comparable proportion as in people with the same level of functioning. To investigate, parents of 52 females with classical and atypical Rett syndrome (2.4—49.3 years) completed the Developmental Behavior Checklist (DBC), the Diagnostic Interview for Social and Communication Disorders (DISCO) and the Dutch Vineland Screener 0—6 (VS 0—6). All participants had a severe to profound intellectual disability (ID) according to the VS 0—6. Behavior indicated an autistic disorder in 42 (DBC) to 58 percent (DISCO) of the Rett cases. Autistic behavior had decreased in 19 percent such that they no longer met the criteria for autistic disorder. Some participants were suspected of having a comorbid autistic disorder, though not more often than can be expected at their level of functioning. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of a comorbid autistic disorder as much as they should be in other people with this level of functioning.

Multi-informant reports of psychiatric symptoms among high-functioning adolescents with Asperger syndrome or autism / Tuula HURTIG in Autism, 13-6 (November 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 13-6 (November 2009) . - p.583-598 Titre : Multi-informant reports of psychiatric symptoms among high-functioning adolescents with Asperger syndrome or autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Tuula HURTIG, Auteur ; Sanna KUUSIKKO, Auteur ; Katja JUSSILA, Auteur ; Marja-Leena MATTILA, Auteur ; Hanna EBELING, Auteur ; Irma MOILANEN, Auteur ; David L.

Forty-three 11- to 17-year-old adolescents with Asperger syndrome (AS) or high-functioning autism (HFA) and 217 typically developed adolescents completed the Youth Self-Report (YSR), while their parents completed the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL). Teachers of adolescents with AS/HFA completed the Teacher Report Form (TRF). The informants reported significantly more psychiatric symptoms, especially withdrawn, anxious/depressed, social and attention problems, in adolescents with AS/HFA than in controls. In contrast to findings in the general population, the psychiatric problems of adolescents with AS/HFA are well acknowledged by multiple informants, including self-reports. However, anxiety and depressive symptoms were more commonly reported by adolescents with AS/HFA and their teachers than their parents, indicating that some emotional distress may be hidden from their parents.

Imitation in fragile X syndrome: Implications for autism / Marta MACEDONI-LUKSIC in Autism, 13-6 (November 2009)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 13-6 (November 2009) . - p.599-611 Titre : Imitation in fragile X syndrome: Implications for autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Marta MACEDONI-LUKSIC, Auteur ; Randi J. HAGERMAN, Auteur ; Laura GREISS-HESS, Auteur ; David GOSAR, Auteur ; Kerrie LEMONS-CHITWOOD, Auteur ; Sally J ROGERS, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.599-611 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism fragile-X-syndrome imitation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : To address the specific impairment of imitation in autism, the imitation abilities of 22 children with fragile X syndrome (FXS) with and without autism were compared. Based on previous research, we predicted that children with FXS and autism would have significantly more difficulty with non-meaningful imitation tasks. After controlling for full-scale IQ and age, the groups did not differ in their overall imitation accuracy scores, but analysis of error patterns revealed that children with FXS and autism made more groping errors and additional movements than the comparison group. These error patterns are consistent with the hypothesis that an action production system deficit plays an important role in the overall imitation deficit in autism, at least in children with FXS.

Assessing progress during treatment for young children with autism receiving intensive behavioural interventions / Diane HAYWARD in Autism, 13-6 (November 2009)

Two types of service provision were compared: an intensive clinic based treatment model with all treatment personnel (N = 23), and an intensive parent managed treatment model with intensive supervision only (N = 21). A non-concurrent multiple baseline design across participants (N = 13) examined whether progress was associated with ABA treatment or confounders. Between intake and follow-up, children in both groups improved significantly on IQ, visual-spatial IQ, language comprehension, expressive language, social skills, motor skills and adaptive behaviour. There were no significant differences between the two groups on any of the measures at follow-up. Mean IQ for participants in both groups increased by 16 points between intake and follow-up. These findings are consistent with previous studies demonstrating the benefits of ABA treatment.
