Experiences of physical and sexual violence as reported by autistic adults without intellectual disability: Rate, gender patterns and clinical correlates / Vicki GIBBS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 89 (November 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 89 (November 2021) . - 101866 Titre : Experiences of physical and sexual violence as reported by autistic adults without intellectual disability: Rate, gender patterns and clinical correlates Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Vicki GIBBS, Auteur ; Jennie HUDSON, Auteur ; Ye In HWANG, Auteur ; Sam ARNOLD, Auteur ; Julian TROLLOR, Auteur ; Elizabeth PELLICANO, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101866 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic  Sexual violence  Physical violence  Victimisation  Autistic traits  Emotion regulation Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Research has repeatedly demonstrated that people with disabilities, particularly intellectual disabilities, experience violence at higher rates compared to people without disabilities. There have been fewer studies of violence amongst Autistic people with most focused on abuse and peer victimisation during childhood. Many of these studies include large numbers of children with intellectual disability making it difficult to infer whether autistic traits confer any increased risk for violence. Method A cross-sectional survey design was employed to compare rates of reported childhood and recent physical and sexual violence, degree of traumatic impact, and tendency to confide in others amongst 245 Autistic adults without intellectual disability and 49 non-Autistic adults. We also examined whether autistic traits and emotion regulation were associated with experiences of reported violence. Results A higher proportion of Autistic adults reported experiencing sexual and physical violence during childhood. There was no difference in recent violence or traumatic impact, however Autistic adults were more likely to report they had never confided in anyone about their experience/s. Autistic traits (but not emotion regulation difficulties) were a significant predictor of experiencing violence. Conclusions The findings provide further evidence that Autistic people experience higher rates of physical and sexual violence and this cannot be attributed solely to the risk that is conferred by co-occurring intellectual disability. This information is important for policy makers and service providers so that steps can be taken to protect Autistic people from exposure to violence however further research is needed to better understand the extent and nature of violence experienced by Autistic people.

Practitioner Review: Anxiety disorders in children and young people - assessment and treatment / Cathy CRESWELL in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 61-6 (June 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 61-6 (June 2020) . - p.628-643 Titre : Practitioner Review: Anxiety disorders in children and young people - assessment and treatment Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Cathy CRESWELL, Auteur ; Polly WAITE, Auteur ; Jennie HUDSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.628-643 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Anxiety disorders  adolescents  assessment  children  intervention  treatment Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Despite significant advancements in our knowledge of anxiety disorders in children and adolescents, they continue to be underrecognised and undertreated. It is critical that these disorders are taken seriously in children and young people as they are highly prevalent, have a negative impact on educational, social and health functioning, create a risk of ongoing anxiety and other mental health disorders across the life span and are associated with substantial economic burden. Yet very few children with anxiety disorders access evidence-based treatments, and there is an urgent need for widespread implementation of effective interventions. This review aimed to provide an overview of recent research developments that will be relevant to clinicians and policymakers, particularly focusing on the development and maintenance of child anxiety disorders and considerations for assessment and treatment. Given the critical need to increase access to effective support, we hope this review will contribute to driving forward a step change in treatment delivery for children and young people with anxiety disorders and their families.

The Extent and Nature of Autistic People?s Violence Experiences During Adulthood: A Cross-sectional Study of Victimisation / Vicki GIBBS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-9 (September 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 53-9 (September 2023) . - p.3509-3524 Titre : The Extent and Nature of Autistic People?s Violence Experiences During Adulthood: A Cross-sectional Study of Victimisation Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Vicki GIBBS, Auteur ; Jennie HUDSON, Auteur ; Elizabeth PELLICANO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3509-3524 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study investigated the extent and nature of violence experiences reported by autistic adults. Autistic (n=118) and non-autistic (n=110) adults completed a questionnaire about their experiences of sexual harassment, stalking and harassment, sexual violence and physical violence since the age of 15. Autistic adults reported higher rates of all violence types, multiple forms of violence and repeated instances of the same type of violence. Typical gender differences in the patterns of violence (more physical violence reported by men and more sexual violence reported by women) were apparent in the non-autistic but not the autistic group. Findings add to the limited research in this area and highlight the need to identify risk and protective factors. Policy and practice implications are also discussed.
