Method Participants were 258 mother-father dyads and their child. Parents provided demographic information and completed measures on their parenting stress and their child’s autism symptom severity. Results Partial correlations revealed that, at the time of diagnosis, after controlling for children’s age and autism symptom severity, mothers’ and fathers’ stress was positively and significantly associated with each other, suggesting a bidirectional relation between partners’ psychological adjustment. Cross-lagged panel analyses demonstrated different longitudinal and transactional links, depending on the dimension of stress examined. Conclusions Findings are discussed in terms of supports that could assist mothers and fathers of children with ASD.

Symptom Severity, Internalized and Externalized Behavioral and Emotional Problems: Links with Parenting Stress in Mothers of Children Recently Diagnosed with Autism / Catherine MELLO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-6 (June 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 52-6 (June 2022) . - p.2400-2413 Titre : Symptom Severity, Internalized and Externalized Behavioral and Emotional Problems: Links with Parenting Stress in Mothers of Children Recently Diagnosed with Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Catherine MELLO, Auteur ; Mélina RIVARD, Auteur ; Diane MORIN, Auteur ; Shaneha PATEL, Auteur ; Marjorie MORIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2400-2413 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Challenging behavior  Intellectual disability  Mothers  Parenting stress Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The present study examined which aspects of the child's behavior and clinical profile accounted for three dimensions of parenting stress: related to parenting roles, to interactions with the child, and to the child. Measures of adaptive behavior, intellectual functioning, autism symptom severity, and challenging behavior and emotional difficulties were examined as predictors of parenting stress in 157 mothers of children recently diagnosed with autism. Children's emotional problems and aggressive behavior were most predictive of parenting distress, whereas autism symptoms along with emotional problems and aggressive behavior, respectively, were linked to stress pertaining to interactions and to the child. These findings underscore the need for comprehensive and complementary interventions that focus on children's behavior and symptoms but also on parent adjustment.

A Window into the Use of Post-diagnostic Services for Autism and Parents? Perspective on the Quality of Early Childhood Services Trajectory in a Canadian Province / Mélina RIVARD in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-3 (March 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 55-3 (March 2025) . - p.955-968 Titre : A Window into the Use of Post-diagnostic Services for Autism and Parents? Perspective on the Quality of Early Childhood Services Trajectory in a Canadian Province Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mélina RIVARD, Auteur ; Catherine MELLO, Auteur ; Shaneha PATEL, Auteur ; Marjorie MORIN, Auteur ; Diane MORIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.955-968 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The pathway for post-diagnostic services for autism tends to be complex, heterogeneous, and fraught with delays. This situation has repercussions for families? experience with care systems, the quality of early interventions, and family adjustment. To date, studies of parents? point of view on autism services have predominantly focused on the diagnostic phase of the services trajectory. The goal of the present study was to investigate the perspective of parents on autism early childhood services within a public healthcare and social services system in a Canadian province (Québec). Participants were 91 parents who completed a structured framework for the evaluation of the quality of services trajectories, the Evaluation of the services Trajectory in Autism by Parents (ETAP; Mello et al., in Research in Developmental Disabilities 133, 2023). Approximately three-quarters of families received interim services (e.g., punctual speech therapy interventions) for which they had overall neutral-to-positive appraisals but viewed as having comparably low validity and continuity. Although all children diagnosed with autism are entitled to receive early behavioral intervention (EBI) dispensed by the public health and social services system, approximately a quarter of families did not receive this service. Families who received EBI evaluated this service positively on all ETAP dimensions. The empathy (i.e., parent-provider relationships) dimension was rated highest for both interim and EBI services. Some systemic, family, and child-related factors were associated with the perceived quality of services for both interim and early childhood services. Our results emphasize the need for services for children and families as soon as possible, both during assessment and after diagnosis.
