Participants were 149 toddlers with ASD and their mothers, assessed at 2 annual time points. A cross-lag analysis showed that anxiety symptoms increased over time while SOR remained relatively stable. SOR positively predicted changes in anxiety over and above child age, autism symptom severity, NVDQ, and maternal anxiety, but anxiety did not predict changes in SOR. Results suggest that SOR emerges earlier than anxiety, and predicts later development of anxiety.

Anxiety Disorders and Sensory Over-Responsivity in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders: Is There a Causal Relationship? / Shulamite A. GREEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 40-12 (December 2010)

Currently, it is unclear what causal mechanisms may exist between SOR and anxiety. We propose three possible theories to explain the association between anxiety and SOR: (a) SOR is caused by anxiety; (b) Anxiety is caused by SOR; or (c) SOR and anxiety are causally unrelated but are associated through a common risk factor or diagnostic overlap. In this paper, we examine support for each theory in the existing anxiety, autism, and neuroscience literature, and discuss how each theory informs choice of interventions and implications for future studies.

Breastfeeding and autism: An electronic health records study of baby wellness visit records / Ayelet BEN-SASSON in Autism, 30-3 (March 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism > 30-3 (March 2026) . - p.723-735 Titre : Breastfeeding and autism: An electronic health records study of baby wellness visit records Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ayelet BEN-SASSON, Auteur ; Aviva MIMOUNI-BLOCH, Auteur ; Sukaina SAMHAT-DARAWSHI, Auteur ; Keren ILANN, Auteur ; Lidia V. GABIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.723-735 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism  baby wellness visits  breastfeeding  electronic health records  socioeconomic Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Evidence supporting the association between breastfeeding patterns and autism is inconsistent. This study examined sociodemographic and birth factors related to breastfeeding duration and subsequent autism spectrum disorder (autism) diagnosis according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th Edition, compared to a neurotypically developing cohort, based on electronic health records. Demographics, feeding preferences, and breastfeeding duration as reported by parents during routine baby wellness visits were analyzed for a cohort of 11,766 (1.9%) children with autism spectrum disorder diagnosis and a random subsample of 12,000 (2.03%) neurotypically developing children. Autism spectrum disorder diagnosis was based on a national autism registry and assigned after electronic health records were completed. Preterm, very low birth weight, multiple births, and complex medical comorbidities were excluded. Infants subsequently diagnosed with autism were breastfed for an average of 5.0 months, 1.5 months shorter than neurotypically developing. Fewer autism spectrum disorder infants were exclusively breastfed in the first year of life. Two-way analysis of variance indicated a significant effect of socioeconomic status and autism spectrum disorder on breastfeeding duration, and a significant interaction of socioeconomic status with autism spectrum disorder. Shorter breastfeeding duration among infants with subsequent autism spectrum disorder was confirmed, calling for closer monitoring for autism traits in infants with breastfeeding difficulties. These challenges were independent of birth parameters; however, they were influenced by socioeconomic factors.Lay Abstract This study found that infants later diagnosed with autism were breastfed for a shorter duration than their typically developing peers, with differences influenced by socioeconomic status. These findings highlight the importance of monitoring breastfeeding challenges as a potential early indicator of autism, particularly in families of mid-range socioeconomic status.

Early sensory over-responsivity in toddlers with autism spectrum disorders as a predictor of family impairment and parenting stress / Ayelet BEN-SASSON in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 54-8 (August 2013)

CARTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.846-853 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : ASD  toddlers  sensory over-responsivity  family impairment  parenting stress Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background: Sensory over-responsivity (SOR) affects many individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), often leading to stressful encounters during daily routines. Methods: This study describes the associations between early SOR symptoms and the longitudinal course of restrictions in family life activities and parenting stress across three time-points in families raising a child with ASD (n = 174). Covariates were child diagnostic severity, emotional problems, and maternal affective symptoms. At time 1 mean chronological age was 28.5 months. Children were administered the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) and Mullen Scales of Early Learning (MSEL). Parents completed the Infant Toddler Sensory Profile (ITSP), Infant-Toddler Social Emotional Assessment (ITSEA), Beck Anxiety Index (BAI), and the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Inventory (CES-D) at time 1; and the Parenting Stress Index (PSI) and Family Life Impairment Scale (FLIS) at the three annual time-points. Results: Latent Growth Curve Models indicated that higher SOR scores on the ITSP at time 1 were associated with higher initial levels of family life impairment and parenting stress and with a smaller magnitude of change over time. These associations were independent of severity of ADOS social-communication symptoms, MSEL composite score, ITSEA externalizing and anxiety symptoms, and maternal affective symptoms as measured by the BAI and CES-D. On average FLIS and PSI did not change over time, however, there was significant individual variability. Concurrently, SOR at time 1 explained 39–45% of the variance in family stress and impairment variables. Conclusions: An evaluation of SOR should be integrated into the assessment of toddlers with ASD considering their role in family life impairment and stress.

A Meta-Analysis of Sensory Modulation Symptoms in Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders / Ayelet BEN-SASSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 39-1 (January 2009)

Results from 14 studies indicated a significant high difference between ASD and typical groups in the presence/frequency of sensory symptoms, with the greatest difference in under-responsivity, followed by over-responsivity and sensation seeking. Three moderators that reduced the variability in findings among studies were: chronological age, severity of autism, and type of control group. Sensory differences were highest for studies of children ages 6–9 years, samples with more than 80% with an autism diagnosis, and compared to a CA matched versus a MA or DD matched group. It is important to consider these moderators in the design of studies and interventions addressing sensory symptoms.
