Chinese College Students' Knowledge of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Social Distance from Individuals with ASD: The Mediating Role of Negative Stereotypes / Minghui LU in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-8 (August 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 52-8 (August 2022) . - p.3676-3685 Titre : Chinese College Students' Knowledge of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Social Distance from Individuals with ASD: The Mediating Role of Negative Stereotypes Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Minghui LU, Auteur ; Rong WANG, Auteur ; Yuqing ZOU, Auteur ; Feifan PANG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3676-3685 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  China  Cross-Sectional Studies  Humans  Students  Surveys and Questionnaires  ASD knowledge  Autism spectrum disorder  Chinese college students  Negative stereotypes  Social distance Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study investigated whether negative stereotypes are responsible for the effect of ASD knowledge on social distance from individuals with ASD among college students. A sample of 869 neurotypical Chinese college students completed a cross-sectional survey to assess social distance, ASD knowledge, and negative stereotypes. Pearson correlation analysis yielded significant correlations between social distance, ASD knowledge, and negative stereotypes. Multiple mediation analysis showed that negative stereotypes mediated the link between social distance and ASD knowledge. Specifically, greater ASD knowledge predicted reduced social distance through decreased stereotyping related to dangerousness, personal responsibility for the disorder, and discontinuity, but also predicted greater social distance through increased stereotyping related to social inappropriateness. The findings deepen our understanding of the association between ASD knowledge and social distance by revealing the mediating role of negative stereotypes, and provide information that can help improve anti-stigma initiatives in college settings.

Chinese Validation of the Multidimensional Attitude Scale toward Persons with Disabilities (MAS): Attitudes toward Autism Spectrum Disorders / Ming-Hui LU in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-10 (October 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-10 (October 2020) . - p.3777-3789 Titre : Chinese Validation of the Multidimensional Attitude Scale toward Persons with Disabilities (MAS): Attitudes toward Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ming-Hui LU, Auteur ; Feifan PANG, Auteur ; Jie LUO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3777-3789 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asd  China  College students  Confirmatory factor analysis  Mas Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The literature on tools of attitudes towards ASD was limited. This study is the first to examine the factor structure and psychometric properties of the multidimensional attitudes scale toward persons with disabilities (MAS) in a sample of Chinese college students (N?=?1002, 32.10% males). Confirmatory factor analysis supported the G-MAS-R model's 4-factor structure: calm, negative affect, positive cognitions and behavioral avoidance. The results suggest that the Chinese version of the MAS has satisfactory internal consistency. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the MAS scores were significantly correlated with the Social Distance Scale and Autism Stigma and Knowledge Questionnaire scores. Overall, the findings indicate that the MAS is appropriate for assessing attitudes toward people with ASD in a Chinese context.

Method Four hundred and ten mainstream primary school teachers were assessed using the Autism Stigma and Knowledge Questionnaire, the Autism Attitudes Scale for Teachers and a professional self-efficacy scale. Results The results showed that the teachers’ knowledge of ASD was significantly correlated with their attitude and professional self-efficacy regarding children with ASD. Attitude both mediated and moderated the correlation between knowledge and professional self-efficacy. Conclusions The study demonstrated that knowledge and attitude are important indicators of professional self-efficacy. As such, teachers’ professional self-efficacy regarding children with ASD can be improved by improving their knowledge of ASD and attitude toward these children.

Perceived social support and life satisfaction of Chinese parents of children with autism spectrum disorder: Loneliness as a mediator and moderator / Minghui LU in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 87 (September 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 87 (September 2021) . - 101829 Titre : Perceived social support and life satisfaction of Chinese parents of children with autism spectrum disorder: Loneliness as a mediator and moderator Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Minghui LU, Auteur ; Rong WANG, Auteur ; Huan LIN, Auteur ; Feifan PANG, Auteur ; Xiaomeng CHEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101829 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Perceived social support  Loneliness  Life satisfaction  Emotional and behavioral problems  Chinese parents of children with ASD Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background This study investigates the relationships and mechanism between perceived social support, loneliness, and life satisfaction among Chinese parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Method Cross-sectional data were collected from 306 parents of children with ASD, including fathers and mothers, in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, mainland China. A survey comprising the parent-rated Strength and Difficulties Questionnaire, the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support, the UCLA Loneliness Scale, and the Satisfaction with Life Scale was administered. Results Perceived social support was significantly associated with loneliness and life satisfaction. Loneliness both mediated and moderated the relationship between perceived social support and life satisfaction. Conclusions Theoretically, the findings highlight the role of loneliness in explaining the mechanism through which perceived social support is linked to life satisfaction. Practically, this study suggests that high levels of perceived social support and low levels of loneliness are socio-psychological resources that can be targeted to enhance the life satisfaction of Chinese parents of children with ASD.

Stumbling Block in Providing Physical Activity Support Among Parents of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Moderated Mediation Analysis / Mingqing LIU ; Feifan PANG ; Tianyu PENG ; Yong LIU ; Jiajie WEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 54-7 (July 2024)

Evidence suggests that some barriers impede parents from providing PA support for their children with ASD. Parental perceived stigma is one of these barriers. However, few studies have explored how parental perceived stigma influences parental PA support. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between parental perceived stigma and parental PA support, the mediating role of parental self-efficacy, and the moderating effect of having other typically developing children or not. A total of 274 participants were recruited to participate in the study. The results showed that parental self-efficacy mediated the association between parental perceived stigma and parental PA support and the moderating effect of having other typically developing children or not.
