Birthday and Non-birthday Videotapes: The Importance of Context for the Behavior of Young Children with Autism / Kara L. THORSEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 38-6 (July 2008)

THORSEN, Auteur ; Wendy A.

Behavior in birthday and non-birthday contexts was examined at 12 and 24 months of age for 56 children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The results of this study indicate that context does matter for young children’s behavior and leads to a different picture of behavioral functioning. For children with ASD, behaviors from non-birthday videotapes are more predictive of functioning later in childhood. The findings suggest that close attention must be paid to contextual factors that may influence young children’s behavior.

College Students’ Perceptions of Peers with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Nicole L. MATTHEWS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-1 (January 2015)

Affective, behavioral, and cognitive attitudes toward vignette characters displaying behaviors characteristic of ASD were examined among 224 four-year university students who were randomly assigned to one of three labeling conditions for the primary vignette characters: high functioning autism (HFA), typical college student, or no label. Students in the HFA label condition reported more positive behavioral and cognitive attitudes toward the vignette characters than students in the no label condition. Male students and students with lower scores on the Broad Autism Phenotype Questionnaire reported more positive attitudes across study conditions. These experimental results suggest that knowledge of a diagnosis might improve attitudes toward college students with ASD.

Heavy Metal in Children’s Tooth Enamel: Related to Autism and Disruptive Behaviors? / Maryam M. ABDULLAH in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 42-6 (June 2012)

Using laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, we found no significant differences in levels of these neurotoxicants for children with ASDs compared with TD children, but there was marginal significance indicating that children with ASDs have lower manganese levels. No significant differences emerged between children with HDB and TD children. The current findings challenge the notion that perinatal heavy metal exposure is a major contributor to the development of ASDs and HDB.

Mixed martial arts training improves social skills and lessens problem behaviors in boys with Autism Spectrum Disorder / Janice N. PHUNG in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 83 (May 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 83 (May 2021) . - 101758 Titre : Mixed martial arts training improves social skills and lessens problem behaviors in boys with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Janice N. PHUNG, Auteur ; Wendy A. GOLDBERG, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101758 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ASD  Physical exercise  Martial arts  Social skills  Problem behaviors Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Difficulties with social functioning are a defining core characteristic among children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Fortunately, adaptive social skills can be acquired. Physical exercise has gained interest among researchers as a practical way to improve social functioning in children with ASD. The present study evaluated the effectiveness of a Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) intervention for improving social skills and lessening problematic social behaviors in school-aged boys with ASD. Method Thirty-four boys and girls (n = 28 boys, 6 girls) with ASD were randomly assigned to either a community-based MMA intervention or a Waitlist Control (WLC) condition. Randomization resulted in an intervention group of all boys. Assessments of child functioning were conducted pre- and post-intervention. The 26-session MMA intervention consisted of learning and practicing increasingly challenging motor movements in a structured class with ASD and typically-developing peers. The WLC group did not participate in any intervention between pre- and post-test. Measures of implementation fidelity were included. Results Results indicated significant interactions between group and predicted social functioning over time. Compared to the control group, parents of boys with ASD in the martial arts group reported significantly higher positive social behaviors and significantly lower negative social behaviors between pre- and post-test. Conclusions The results of this study increase our understanding of the benefits of martial arts training for boys with ASD within a community setting. Practical implications highlight the importance of providing a social component with physical exercise, helping to address the physical needs of children with ASD and perhaps conferring social benefits as well.

Poor Sleep Quality Among Adolescents With ASD Is Associated With Depressive Symptoms, Problem Behaviors, and Conflicted Family Relationships / Janice N. PHUNG in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 34-3 (September 2019)

In Study 1, 28 adolescents with ASD, 27 typically developing (TD) adolescents, and their mothers, participated. Mothers and adolescents independently completed questionnaires about sleep and adolescent functioning. In Study 2, 20 adolescents with ASD and their mothers participated, and actigraphy was used to measure sleep quality. Regression results from Study 1 indicated more daytime sleepiness was associated with more depressive symptoms and more discordant mother–adolescent relationships in the ASD sample. More sleep–wake problems were associated with more depressive symptoms in TD adolescents. In Study 2, more time asleep and poorer sleep efficiency were associated with more depressive symptoms and discordant sibling relationships. These findings suggest that helping adolescents with ASD with their sleep issues may confer benefits in other parts of their lives.
