Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 87 (September 2021) . - 101830 Titre : Brief Report – Selective eating: Parental and day care professional perception of ASD symptom severity in toddlers and children over time Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ronit SABAN-BEZALEL, Auteur ; Esther BEN-ITZCHAK, Auteur ; Orit STOLAR, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101830 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ASD symptoms  Selective eating  Toddlers  Parents  Day care professionals Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Food selectivity is a frequent eating problem identified among children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Previous studies identified a positive association between parental reports of atypical eating habits and ASD symptom severity, and a simultaneous absence of this association among the professionals’ reports. However, the professionals in these studies had only short acquaintances with the children. Method We examined parental and day care professional (DCP) assessments of ASD symptom severity among children at school year start and end, in relation to selective eating. We included 62 children aged 19–45 months diagnosed with ASD attending government-funded Early Intervention Day Care Centers (EIDCCs). EIDCCs, designated for children diagnosed with ASD, provide standard comprehensive multidisciplinary ASD-specific treatments. Results Results showed parental reports of children’s ASD symptoms were positively associated with selective eating consistently over time. In contrast, DCP reports were not associated with selective eating, despite long acquaintance with the children. When comparing ASD symptoms of selective eaters vs. non-selective eaters, the gap between parental and DCP assessments was smaller among selective eaters. Generally, parents reported less severe ASD symptoms compared to DCPs, yet, over time, both parents and DCPs reported improvement. A decrease in food diversity was also found associated with age, originating as early as toddlerhood. Conclusion Differences between parents and day care professionals on assessments of ASD symptom severity, in relation to parent reports of selective eating behavior, were maintained over time. Our findings emphasize the importance of early interventions that address atypical eating habits at young ages.

Eating Challenges in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder: Development and Validation of the "Aut-Eat" Questionnaire (AEQ) / Eynat GAL in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-2 (February 2022)

To establish the internal consistency and discriminant validity of the AEQ, parents of children with ASD (n = 105, M(age) = 40.85, SD = 15.67 months) or typical development (TD; n = 98, M(age) = 50.33, SD = 16.50 months) completed the AEQ. Questionnaire construction, content validity, factor analysis, internal consistency and discriminant validity are reported. The AEQ was reliable with high internal consistency in most domains. Significant differences were found between groups in all domains. The AEQ is a reliable and valid tool and may help to characterize eating difficulties in this population.

Eating problems and patterns among toddlers and young boys with and without autism spectrum disorders / Roni Enten VISSOKER in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 59 (March 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 59 (March 2019) . - p.1-9 Titre : Eating problems and patterns among toddlers and young boys with and without autism spectrum disorders Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Roni Enten VISSOKER, Auteur ; Y. LATZER, Auteur ; Orit STOLAR, Auteur ; A. RABENBACH, Auteur ; Eynat GAL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1-9 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders  Eating problems  Eating patterns  Children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Eating and feeding problems are common comorbidities among children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) yet the reasons for this are unclear, and relatively few studies have compared the eating problems seen in ASD to a typically developing control group. Methods Differences in eating problems and patterns between children with ASD and typically developing children were assessed, as well as correlations with age as well as differences between eating problems and patterns between toddlers (aged 2–3 years) and young boys (aged 3–7) with ASD. A total of 105 children with ASD and 95 typically developing children were included in the study. Of the 91 toddlers, 65 had a diagnosis of ASD and of the 112 young boys, 40 had a diagnosis of ASD. Results Children with ASD displayed significantly more eating problems in every domain assessed than children with typical development. The overall effect of age was found only in ritualistic behavior during eating, which older children displayed more than younger children. In addition, typically developing children ate a significantly greater variety of all food groups than children with ASD, except drinks and snacks. An overall age effect was also found. Younger children ate a greater variety than older children in the majority of food groups, except for drinks, snacks and meats. Conclusion This study supports previous findings regarding the greater incidence of eating problems and patterns among children with ASD and provides new findings about the role of age in eating problems. More research is needed to shed light on underlying causes of eating problems and patterns in ASD.
