Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 54 (October 2018) . - p.76-82 Titre : Children with autism spectrum disorder from China and the Netherlands: Age of diagnosis, gender and comorbidities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ke WANG, Auteur ; Chongying WANG, Auteur ; Dehua GUO, Auteur ; Marlies VAN WIJNGAARDEN, Auteur ; Sander BEGEER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.76-82 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Age of diagnosis  Gender  Comorbidities Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background In recent years, an increasing number of studies have highlighted progress in ASD clinical practice and scientific research in China (Zheng & Zheng, 2015). However, little is known about the differences between clinical or scientific approaches to ASD between China and other countries. In our study we explored the impact of gender, comorbidity, parental educational and vocational status on the age of diagnosis in two samples of children with ASD from China and the Netherlands. Method 433 children with ASD aged between 6 to 14 from China and 492 age matched children with ASD from the Netherlands were investigated based on national databases on individuals with ASD. Results We found a lower diagnosis age in China compared to the Netherlands. The Chinese sample showed a higher male/female ratio and a higher proportion of co-morbid ADHD diagnoses, but lower age of first concern, diagnosis age and shorter delay from first concern to diagnosis. In the Dutch sample only, co-morbid ADHD resulted in lower age of first concern. The differential impact of comorbidity and gender across both countries may be related to cultural and clinical variations. Conclusions This study may help us understand ASD from a cross-cultural perspective.

Exploring Cultural Differences in Autistic Traits: A Factor Analytic Study of Children with Autism in China and the Netherlands / Fangyuan LIU in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-11 (November 2022)

To compare autism across cultures it is important to investigate whether the tools used are conceptually equivalent across cultures. This study evaluated the factor structure of the parent-reported Autism Spectrum Quotient Short Form in autistic children from China (n=327; 3 to 17 years) and the Netherlands (n=694; 6 to 16 years). Confirmatory factor analysis did not support the two-factor hierarchical model previously identified. Exploratory factor analysis indicated culturally variant factor structures between China and the Netherlands, which may hamper cross-cultural comparisons. Several items loaded onto different factors in the two samples, indicating substantial variation in parent-reported autistic traits between China and the Netherlands.
