SCAHILL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3670-3682 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This research evaluated the feasibility of actigraphy to measure sleep and physical activity in children (ages 2-8 years) with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We also explored associations between sleep and physical activity. Validated screening measures established eligibility. Questionnaires, diaries, and 5 days and 5 nights of actigraphy monitoring were used to collect data. Of the 32 children enrolled, 27 (84.4%) completed actigraphy monitoring. Based on the median steps per day, children with high physical activity had lower total sleep time and more disruptive behaviors than children with low physical activity. Findings support the feasibility of using actigraphy to measure sleep and physical activity in children with ASD. Larger studies are needed to evaluate interactions of physical activity on sleep in this population.

Modification of the Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / T. KATZ in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 48-8 (August 2018)

Although no questionnaires have been developed to assess sleep in children with ASD, the 33-item Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) is widely used in this population. We examined the factor structure of the CSHQ in 2872 children (age 4-10 years) enrolled in the Autism Treatment Network. A four-factor solution (Sleep Initiation and Duration, Sleep Anxiety/Co-Sleeping, Night Waking/Parasomnias, and Daytime Alertness) with 5-6 items per factor explained 75% of the total variation. Ten items failed to load on any factor. This abbreviated 23-item four-factor version of this measure may be useful when assessing sleep in children with ASD.

Predictors of Caregiver Strain for Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Jessica BRADSHAW in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-9 (September 2021)

This study examined child clinical features that predict high levels of caregiver strain for 374 parents of children with ASD. Caregiver strain was measured using the Caregiver Strain Questionnaire (CGSQ) objective, subjective internalized, and subjective externalized subscales. Confirmatory factor analysis indicated an acceptable fit for the original CGSQ three-factor solution. The strongest child predictors across CGSQ subscales were: disruptive behavior for objective strain, autism severity and disruptive behavior for subjective internalized strain, and oppositional behavior and hyperactivity for subjective externalized strain. Individualized interventions that attend to specific elements of parental strain may reduce strain and improve family wellbeing.

Qualitative Exploration Toward the Development of a Parent-Rated Scale for Insomnia in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder / C. SINHA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-5 (May 2024)

SCAHILL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1792-1803 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Toward the development of a new parent-rating for insomnia, this multi-site qualitative study explored sleep problems and related impacts in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and their families. To ensure content validity of the measure, we conducted six focus groups with caregivers (N = 25) of 24 children (age 3 to 18 years) with ASD. Based on parent report, all children had a history of mild or greater insomnia. The focus group transcripts were systematically coded to identify major themes. Verbatim comments from caretakers were used to generate 134 candidate items. Further review by the research team and an expert panel followed by individual cognitive interviews with 12 parents reduced the item bank to 40. The thematic analysis of focus group transcripts identified 7 categories: (1) Trouble falling asleep; (2) trouble staying asleep; (3) early morning waking; (4) bedtime routines; (5) parental strategies for bedtime management; (6) impact of sleep problems on the child; and (7) impact of sleep problems on the family. The Flesch Kincaid Grade Level of the 40-item version was 7.2 (seventh grade reading level). Insomnia in children with ASD shares features in common with insomnia in the general pediatric population. However, perhaps owing to autistic features such as insistence on sameness, sensory sensitivities, communication impairments, insomnia in children with ASD appears to have unique behavioral manifestations. Content validity and item clarity of the 40-item bank were supported by expert panel review and cognitive interviews with caregivers of children with ASD.
