A national study of the prevalence of autism among five-year-old children in Iran / Sayyed Ali SAMADI in Autism, 16-1 (January 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 16-1 (January 2012) . - p.5-14 Titre : A national study of the prevalence of autism among five-year-old children in Iran Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Sayyed Ali SAMADI, Auteur ; Ameneh MAHMOODIZADEH, Auteur ; Roy MCCONKEY, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.5-14 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder  Iran  prevalence  typical autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In Iran, more than 1.3 million five-year olds have been screened for autism over three academic years, with the Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ). The Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) is used to confirm a diagnosis of typical autism. The resulting prevalence of 6.26 per 10,000 for typical autism is in line with rates for certain countries but is lower than those reported recently for some Western nations. This may be due to the younger age range assessed but the suitability of the tools and aspects of Iranian culture could be other reasons for the lower prevalence. International comparisons of prevalence rates is fraught with difficulties, but it is a valuable endeavour as it can identify issues around cultural and societal perceptions of children’s development.

Buried by autism: older parents’ perceptions of autism / Monique HINES in Autism, 16-1 (January 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 16-1 (January 2012) . - p.15-26 Titre : Buried by autism: older parents’ perceptions of autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Monique HINES, Auteur ; Susan BALANDIN, Auteur ; Leanne TOGHER, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.15-26 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adult  autism  challenging behaviour  coping  parent Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this study, we explored older parents’ perceptions of their adult sons and daughters with autism in order to gain insights into how parents’ beliefs about autism may influence their coping. Narrative analysis of in-depth interviews held with 16 parents aged 60 years and older of adults with autism revealed that these parents perceived that their son’s or daughter’s intelligence, sense of humour and social personality are blocked by autism. Adherence to these beliefs appeared to comprise important coping strategies that supported these parents in their caregiving roles by assisting them to maintain positive perceptions of their son or daughter with autism. Yet such beliefs also held costs for the parents, including reinforcing the belief that they need to regulate their own behaviour in order to realize the true son or daughter buried by autism.

With increases in enrollment of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in school systems, establishing the effectiveness and feasibility of interventions implemented in school settings is important. In clinical settings, interventions targeting social-communication and play behaviors have increased these skills and impacted later language abilities. Results of this single-case design study indicated the ASAP intervention had a positive impact on social-communication and play skills for three preschoolers with ASD. All participants showed either increases in frequency or more stability in targeted behaviors. Social validity results provide additional support for the use of ASAP with preschoolers with ASD.

Creativity in savant artists with autism / Linda PRING in Autism, 16-1 (January 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 16-1 (January 2012) . - p.45-57 Titre : Creativity in savant artists with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Linda PRING, Auteur ; Nicola RYDER, Auteur ; Laura CRANE, Auteur ; Beate HERMELIN, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.45-57 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism  creativity  domain-specificity  savants  talent Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often display impairments in creativity, yet savant artists with ASD are reported to produce highly novel and original artistic outputs. To explore this paradox, we assessed nine savant artists with ASD, nine talented art students, nine non-artistically talented individuals with ASD, and nine individuals with mild/moderate learning difficulties (MLD) on tasks in and out of their domain of expertise. This was to ascertain whether the performance of the savant artists was related to their artistic ability, their diagnosis of ASD or their level of intellectual functioning. Results demonstrated that the responses of the art students were more creative (as assessed on measures of fluency, originality, elaboration, and flexibility) than the savant, ASD, and MLD groups on a drawing task. Although the savants did produce more elaborative responses than the ASD and MLD groups, no differences were observed on the other indices of creativity. On a non-drawing task, the savants produced more original outputs than the ASD and MLD groups (scoring similarly to the art students), but group differences were not observed on the other measures.

Attentional status of faces for people with autism spectrum disorder / Anna REMINGTON in Autism, 16-1 (January 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 16-1 (January 2012) . - p.59-73 Titre : Attentional status of faces for people with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Anna REMINGTON, Auteur ; Ruth CAMPBELL, Auteur ; John SWETTENHAM, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.59-73 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : face processing  selective attention  perception Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In recent years there has been a growing interest in the role of attention in the processing of social stimuli in individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Research has demonstrated that, for typical adults, faces have a special status in attention and are processed in an automatic and mandatory fashion even when participants attempt to ignore them. Under conditions of high load in a selective attention task, when irrelevant stimuli are usually not processed, typical adults continue to process distractor faces. Although there is evidence of a lack of attentional bias towards faces in ASD, there has been no direct test of whether faces are processed automatically using the distractor-face paradigm.In the present study 16 typical adults and 16 adults with ASD performed selective attention tasks with face and musical instrument distractors. The results indicated that even when the load of the central task was high, typical adults continued to be distracted by irrelevant face stimuli, whereas individuals with ASD were able to ignore them. In the equivalent non-social task, distractors had no effect at high load for either group. The results suggest that faces are processed in an automatic and mandatory fashion in typical adults but not in adults with ASD.

Hidden communicative competence: Case study evidence using eye-tracking and video analysis / Andrew GRAYSON in Autism, 16-1 (January 2012)

This FC user has virtually no independent means of expression, and is held to have no literacy skills. The resulting data were subjected to a variety of analyses aimed at describing the relationship between the FC user’s looking and pointing behaviours, in order to make inferences about the complex question of ‘authorship’. The eye-tracking data present a challenge to traditional ‘facilitator influence’ accounts of authorship, and are consistent with the proposition that this FC user does indeed author the sophisticated texts that are attributed to him; he looks for longer at to-be-typed letters before typing them, and looks ahead to subsequent letters of words before the next letter of the word is typed.

Do sheltered workshops enhance employment outcomes for adults with autism spectrum disorder? / Robert Evert CIMERA in Autism, 16-1 (January 2012)

Two groups of individuals were compared: (a) 215 supported employees who were in sheltered workshops prior to entering supported employment and (b) 215 supported employees who were not in sheltered workshops. Individuals from both groups were matched based on their primary diagnosis, secondary diagnosis (if present), and gender. Results showed that there were no differences in rates of employment between these two groups. However, individuals who participated in sheltered workshops earned significantly less (US$129.36 versus US$191.42 per week), and cost significantly more to serve (US$6,065.08 versus US$2,440.60), than their non-sheltered workshop peers. Results presented here suggest that individuals with ASD achieve better vocational outcomes if they do not participate in sheltered workshops prior to enrolling in supported employment.
