One characteristic common to many autistic people is a special interest in a particular topic-something spoken about with such frequency and intensity that it may be stigmatized by non-autistic peers. We investigated college students' interest in interacting with peers described as behaving in ways characteristic of autism (or not), and additionally described as having a special interest (or not). As expected, autistic characters were more stigmatized, but autistic characters with a special interest were not more stigmatized than those without. Only among non-autistic characters was having a special interest associated with greater stigmatization. Findings give further insight into factors influencing the stigmatization of autistic college students.

Intensive services for behavior reduction: Comparison of autistic individuals with and without moderate-to-profound intellectual disabilities / Summer BOTTINI in Research in Autism, 130 (February 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 130 (February 2026) . - p.202775 Titre : Intensive services for behavior reduction: Comparison of autistic individuals with and without moderate-to-profound intellectual disabilities Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Summer BOTTINI, Auteur ; Meara MCMAHON, Auteur ; Sarah K. SLOCUM, Auteur ; Taylor COOK, Auteur ; Mindy SCHEITHAUER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.202775 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Profound autism  Behavioral intervention  ABA  Intellectual disability Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The intersection of autism, low cognitive ability, and low adaptive skills increases risk for behavioral concerns that impact safety, limit independence, and lead to decrements in quality of life for a child and their family. Despite known differences in service needs between autistic youth with moderate to profound intellectual disability (AS + mID) and those without (AS), it is not yet known whether there are differences in the effectiveness of interventions to address behavioral concerns between these groups. The present study is an exploratory analysis of whether differences exist with respect to behavioral presentation at treatment onset, behavioral procedures needed for a therapeutic reduction, and intervention outcomes. This secondary analysis of a chart review examined 40 clients (22 AS + mID, 18 AS Group) who received intensive outpatient services for severe behavioral concerns between 2020 and 2023. Although no differences in intervention outcome emerged, individuals categorized with AS + mID had a significantly higher likelihood of intrusive procedures within their final treatment package compared to the AS group. There were also nuanced differences in behavioral presentation at the outset of treatment. Specifically, several individuals categorized with AS + mID displayed alarmingly high baseline rates of targeted behavior to a degree not observed in the AS group. These findings suggest that although behavioral intervention may achieve comparable outcomes between groups, additional research is needed in this subpopulation to decrease the need for intrusive procedures.

Preferences for Edible and Electronic Leisure Items: A Systematic Replication / Mindy C. SCHEITHAUER in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 37-3 (September 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 37-3 (September 2022) . - p.135-145 Titre : Preferences for Edible and Electronic Leisure Items: A Systematic Replication Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mindy C.

Recent studies suggest more variability in the percentage of participants with this preference. The rationale for this variability could be sampling, setting, availability of items outside of the study, or the items included. As a systematic replication, we conducted preference assessments of leisure, edible, and leisure/edible items combined of 13 children with developmental disabilities. As an inclusion criterion, all participants had an electronic item as the top-preferred leisure item. An edible item ranked first in the combined assessment for 46.2% of participants. This replicates recent findings while accounting for access to edibles outside of the study. These outcomes are important to guide use of preference assessments across reinforcer classes in clinical and school settings.

Social reward processing in individuals with autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review of the social motivation hypothesis / Summer BOTTINI in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 45 (January 2018)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 45 (January 2018) . - p.9-26 Titre : Social reward processing in individuals with autism spectrum disorder: A systematic review of the social motivation hypothesis Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Summer BOTTINI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.9-26 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Social reward processing  Autism spectrum disorder  Social motivation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : AbstractBackground There is increasing empirical research examining the social motivation hypothesis, which posits that social deficits in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are caused by underlying neural abnormalities in processing the reward value of social stimuli. Method The present systematic review examines social reward processing in individuals with ASD. This review focuses on the experimental procedures employed across studies and their potential impact on findings regarding the social motivation hypothesis. Twenty-seven studies met the specified inclusion criteria. Results Fifteen studies found evidence supporting the social motivation hypothesis; whereas, 12 studies found contradictory evidence. Most studies used pictures of faces as social stimuli and money as comparison nonsocial stimuli. Studies examining certain reward subtypes (e.g., reward learning) consistently supported the hypothesis; whereas, studies examining other reward subtypes (e.g., effort valuation) consistently did not support the hypothesis. Otherwise, methodological approaches varied considerably across studies. Conclusion The current empirical literature on the social motivation hypothesis is mixed, but findings suggest that examining specific sub-dimensions of reward processing may be important to clarify deficits in ASD. It is unclear whether inconsistency in findings is due to methodological limitations. As the literature stands, findings across studies support deficits in reward processing for both social and nonsocial rewards or individual differences in social reward processing. Interestingly, included articles cite few previously published studies on this topic, likely contributing to inconsistency in experimental designs and findings. Comparison across methodological approaches is warranted to help account for contrasting findings and determine the utility of the social motivation hypothesis given mixed evidence.
