In order to generate knowledge that is representative of all affected youth, it is essential to include participants who are culturally and linguistically diverse. However, these families often face barriers to participation in neuroimaging research, including distrust and limited knowledge about research, above and beyond any challenges associated with ASD (e.g., behaviors, sensory hypersensitivities). Method This study included a diverse group of Spanish- and English-speaking parents of children with ASD (N?=?79) to examine the impact of a social story on (a) their understanding of EEG study procedures and (b) their likelihood to enroll in a neuroimaging study. Results Both English- and Spanish-speaking parents who viewed a social story demonstrated better understanding of EEG procedures than parents who read a written explanation, with Spanish-speaking parents also perceiving their understanding to be better in the social story condition. Although parents who viewed a social story were not more likely to participate in neuroimaging research than parents who read a written description, they were less likely to indicate needing more information and more likely to cite their child’s specific behavior problems as the rationale for unlikelihood to participate. Conclusion These results suggest that social stories may be effective tools in the informed consent process for promoting parent understanding of neuroimaging procedures, and useful during recruitment to aid parents in determining whether their child with ASD will be successful in a neuroimaging study.

Working memory moderates the association between early institutional care and separation anxiety symptoms in late childhood and adolescence / Laura Alicia ALBA in Development and Psychopathology, 31-3 (August 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 31-3 (August 2019) . - p.989-997 Titre : Working memory moderates the association between early institutional care and separation anxiety symptoms in late childhood and adolescence Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura Alicia ALBA, Auteur ; Jessica FLANNERY, Auteur ; Mor SHAPIRO, Auteur ; Nim TOTTENHAM, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.989-997 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : cortisol  early caregiving adversity  emotion dysregulation  separation anxiety  working memory Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adverse caregiving, for example, previous institutionalization (PI), is often associated with emotion dysregulation that increases anxiety risk. However, the concept of developmental multifinality predicts heterogeneity in anxiety outcomes. Despite this well-known heterogeneity, more work is needed to identify sources of this heterogeneity and how these sources interact with environmental risk to influence mental health. Here, working memory (WM) was examined during late childhood/adolescence as an intra-individual factor to mitigate the risk for separation anxiety, which is particularly susceptible to caregiving adversities. A modified “object-in-place” task was administered to 110 youths (10–17 years old), with or without a history of PI. The PI youths had elevated separation anxiety scores, which were anticorrelated with morning cortisol levels, yet there were no group differences in WM. PI youths showed significant heterogeneity in separation anxiety symptoms and morning cortisol levels, and WM moderated the link between caregiving and separation anxiety and mediated the association between separation anxiety and morning cortisol in PI youth. Findings suggest that (a) institutional care exerts divergent developmental consequences on separation anxiety versus WM, (b) WM interacts with adversity-related emotion dysregulation, and (c) WM may be a therapeutic target for separation anxiety following early caregiving adversity.
