BHAT, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101860 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Yoga  Verbal communication  Joint attention  Affect  Children Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Yoga is gaining popularity as a multisystem intervention due to its impact on both the physical and mental well-being of children with typical development. However, there is limited empirical evidence to support the use of this approach in school-aged children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The current pilot study evaluated the impact of a creative yoga intervention on the joint attention and social communication skills, as well as affective states of children with ASD. Methods 24 school-aged children with ASD received eight weeks of yoga (e.g., breathing, poses, relaxation) or tabletop play/academic intervention (e.g., reading, arts-crafts, building activities). Children were tested before and after the intervention using a standardized measure of responsive joint attention. Additionally, changes in socially directed verbal communication and affective states of children were assessed three times during the intervention period, i.e. during early, mid, and late intervention sessions. Results Children with ASD showed improvements in responsive joint attention in both groups in the posttest vs. the pretest. Furthermore, children in the yoga group showed improvements in socially directed verbal communication skills across the intervention sessions, i.e. greater spontaneous and responsive communication from early/mid to late intervention sessions compared to the academic group. There were no changes in affective states with the intervention, however, the yoga group showed greater interested and less negative affect compared to the academic group. Conclusions Creative yoga intervention is a promising tool as it led to improvements in intervention-related social communication skills and generalized joint attention skills of children with ASD.

Increased Prevalence of Unusual Sensory Behaviors in Infants at Risk for, and Teens with, Autism Spectrum Disorder / Hannah M. VAN ETTEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 47-11 (November 2017)

From two different sites (UCSD and UConn), caregivers of infants at high (n = 32) and low risk (n = 33) for ASD, and teenagers with (n = 12) and without ASD (n = 11), completed age-appropriate Sensory Profile questionnaires (Infant/Toddler Sensory Profile; Dunn 2002; Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile; Brown and Dunn 2002). The results show that high-risk infants and teenagers with ASD exhibit higher-than-typical prevalence of USBs. Results of our distribution analyses investigating the direction of sensory atypicalities (greater-than-typical vs. less-than-typical) revealed a fair degree of consistency amongst teens, however, USB patterns were more varied in high-risk infants.

Predictors of daily physical activity, screen time, and sleep duration in children with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) / Maninderjit KAUR in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 115 (July 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 115 (July 2024) . - p.102398 Titre : Predictors of daily physical activity, screen time, and sleep duration in children with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Maninderjit KAUR, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.102398 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Physical activity  Sleep  Screen time Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background There is evidence for reduced physical activity, increased screen time, and poor sleep quality in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). However, a comprehensive investigation of the factors predicting these daily behaviors in children and adolescents with ASD is relatively unexplored. Methods The current study conducted a secondary analysis of a 2021 national survey completed by parents with or without a child with ASD. Factors specific to the child (e.g., age, sex, race), family (e.g., parent education, employment), and neighborhood (e.g., geographic location, neighborhood amenities) predicting daily health behaviors of children were analyzed. Results Specifically for the ASD population, several child-specific variables predicted one or more of the daily health behaviors in children with ASD such as age, sex, participation, and ASD severity. In contrast, none of the family and neighborhood variables (except geographic location) predicted the health behaviors of children with ASD. Conclusions Recommendations for planning and implementation of health wellness and promotion programs targeted towards promoting physical activity and reducing screen time in children with ASD are discussed.

The Effects of Rhythm and Robotic Interventions on the Imitation/Praxis, Interpersonal Synchrony, and Motor Performance of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial / Sudha M. SRINIVASAN in Autism Research and Treatment, 2015 (2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research and Treatment > 2015 (2015) Titre : The Effects of Rhythm and Robotic Interventions on the Imitation/Praxis, Interpersonal Synchrony, and Motor Performance of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD): A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Sudha M. SRINIVASAN, Auteur ; Maninderjit KAUR, Auteur ; Isabel K. PARK, Auteur ; T.D. GIFFORD, Auteur ; Kerry L. MARSH, Auteur ; Anjana N. BHAT, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : We assessed the effects of three interventions, rhythm, robotic, and standard-of-care, on the imitation/praxis, interpersonal synchrony, and overall motor performance of 36 children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) between 5 and 12 years of age. Children were matched on age, level of functioning, and services received, prior to random assignment to one of the three groups. Training was provided for 8 weeks with 4 sessions provided each week. We assessed generalized changes in motor skills from the pretest to the posttest using a standardized test of motor performance, the Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency, 2nd edition (BOT-2). We also assessed training-specific changes in imitation/praxis and interpersonal synchrony during an early and a late session. Consistent with the training activities practiced, the rhythm and robot groups improved on the body coordination composite of the BOT-2, whereas the comparison group improved on the fine manual control composite of the BOT-2. All three groups demonstrated improvements in imitation/praxis. The rhythm and robot groups also showed improved interpersonal synchrony performance from the early to the late session. Overall, socially embedded movement-based contexts are valuable in promoting imitation/praxis, interpersonal synchrony, and motor performance and should be included within the standard-of-care treatment for children with ASD.
