Anxiety and Worries of Individuals with Down Syndrome During the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Comparative Study in the UK / V. SIDEROPOULOS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-5 (May 2023)

SAMSON, Auteur ; Olympia PALIKARA, Auteur ; Jo VAN HERWEGEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2021-2036 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study explored the effects of the pandemic on individuals with Down Syndrome (DS; n=67) compared to other groups with Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND; n=48) and their Typically Developing Siblings (TDS; n=56). In total, 115 caregivers reported on their own anxiety and worries and of their children. Anxiety levels for individuals with DS appeared to be lower compared to other SEND populations and to TDS. In terms of worries, individuals with DS worried more about social-related worries but worried less about family-related aspects compared to the other groups. In sum, individuals with DS might show less anxiety but still worried more about specific aspects related to the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on their lives.

Health-related quality of life in children with autism spectrum disorders and children with developmental language disorders / Catherine COALES in Autism & Developmental Language Impairments, 4 (January-December 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism & Developmental Language Impairments > 4 (January-December 2019) Titre : Health-related quality of life in children with autism spectrum disorders and children with developmental language disorders Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Catherine COALES, Auteur ; Natalie HEANEY, Auteur ; Jessie RICKETTS, Auteur ; Julie E. DOCKRELL, Auteur ; Geoff LINDSAY, Auteur ; Olympia PALIKARA, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background and aimsThere is a paucity of literature investigating health-related quality of life in neurodevelopmental populations including children with developmental language disorders and children with autism spectrum disorder. Health-related quality of life in these two groups remains poorly understood. Furthermore, studies have typically relied on reports from caregivers and teachers rather than using self-report measures. The aim of the current study is to compare the levels and profiles of self-reported health-related quality of life of children with developmental language disorders and children with autism spectrum disorder.MethodsParticipants comprised 114 7-to-13-year-old children with developmental language disorders (n=63) and children with autism spectrum disorder (n=51) attending mainstream school. Self-reported health-related quality of life was measured using the KIDSCREEN-52. We also collected standardised measures of receptive language, autism spectrum disorder symptoms, nonverbal IQ and emotional and behavioural problems.ResultsChildren with developmental language disorders reported health-related quality of life commensurate with normative ranges, except for 2 of the 10 dimensions; the Moods and Emotions domain and the Social acceptance/bullying domain, which were below norms. Children with autism spectrum disorder reported significantly lower health-related quality of life compared to norms and the developmental language disorders group. However, when the effects of non-verbal ability and language ? on which the groups were not matched ? were covaried most group differences fell to non-significance or disappeared. Child characteristics showed few associations with dimensions of health-related quality of life across groups.ConclusionsChildren with autism spectrum disorder may be particularly vulnerable to poorer health-related quality of life and the relevant professionals need to be aware of this. Children with developmental language disorders exhibit a profile of health-related quality of life more in-line with average ranges. However, certain domains warrant monitoring and may benefit from intervention. Many of the between-group differences in self-reported health-related quality of life disappeared when non-verbal and language ability were covaried, though neither of the covariates was systematically related to scores. Other within-child factors such as emotional understanding and competence should be explored in future studies.ImplicationsFurther research into child and contextual factors may elucidate risk or protective factors for health-related quality of life in children with neurodevelopmental disorders.

Although both groups showed increased anxiety across the three time points, levels of anxiety in the SEND group, but not the TD siblings, were predicted by awareness about COVID-19. In addition, worries differed between the groups showing that COVID-19 impacts the wellbeing of those with SEND differently to that of their TD siblings.
