Emotional stress, cortisol response, and cortisol rhythm in autism spectrum disorders: A systematic review / Kim VAN DER LINDEN in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 98 (October 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 98 (October 2022) . - 102039 Titre : Emotional stress, cortisol response, and cortisol rhythm in autism spectrum disorders: A systematic review Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kim VAN DER LINDEN, Auteur ; Claudia SIMONS, Auteur ; Thérèse VAN AMELSVOORT, Auteur ; Machteld MARCELIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : 102039 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Stress  Cortisol  Cortisol awakening response Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background This systematic review evaluated whether there is evidence for (i) increased emotional stress levels, and (ii) a different biological stress response or rhythm [i.e., cortisol stress response, diurnal rhythm, or cortisol awakening response (CAR)] in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) relative to controls. Thirdly, the evidence for an association between emotional and biological stress in ASD was reviewed. Method MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, and SAGE journals were searched until December 2020. In this review, there were no limitations regarding age, sex, or intelligence quotient. Studies were only reviewed if results were compared with controls without a developmental disorder. Only salivary cortisol was considered as biological stress measure. Results Thirty-one studies were reviewed. Significantly higher self- and parent-reported emotional stress levels were found in individuals with ASD compared to controls. Regarding biological stress, the few studies in adults reported comparable cortisol stress responses and rhythms between both groups. In children/adolescents with ASD relative to controls, an increased, blunted, or similar cortisol stress response was reported, whereas the CAR did not differ in most studies, and diurnal rhythm was described as blunted or similar. Most studies found no significant association between parent-reported emotional stress and biological stress in ASD. Conclusions Current findings suggest that heightened emotional stress is a clinically significant factor in ASD. To unravel the cortisol response and rhythm, research in specific subgroups within the ASD spectrum is warranted, aiming at a higher frequency of cortisol measurements, preferably combined with momentary emotional stress measurements.

Exploring the autism spectrum: Moderating effects of neuroticism on stress reactivity and on the association between social context and negative affect / Jeroen VAN OOSTERHOUT in Development and Psychopathology, 34-4 (October 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopment and Psychopathology > 34-4 (October 2022) . - p.1366-1375 Titre : Exploring the autism spectrum: Moderating effects of neuroticism on stress reactivity and on the association between social context and negative affect Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jeroen VAN OOSTERHOUT, Auteur ; Kim VAN DER LINDEN, Auteur ; Claudia J.

In autism spectrum disorders (ASD), emotional stress reactivity is increased and there is some evidence for an increased negative affect (NA) when with less familiar people. The aim of this study was to compare adults with ASD and controls on levels of neuroticism and on interactions between neuroticism and appraised stress or social context in models of NA. This is a cross-sectional observational study comprising a group of 50 adults with ASD and 51 controls. Experience sampling method (ESM) reports were collected for 10 days to measure daily life stress, mood, and social context. Multilevel regression analyses revealed significantly higher neuroticism levels in ASD than in controls. Adults with ASD who scored high on neuroticism showed a significantly stronger association between activity/social stress and NA (i.e., higher stress reactivity) than those with low scores. Furthermore, the association between neuroticism and NA was stronger when adults with ASD were with less familiar people compared with being alone or with familiar people. No consistent corresponding significant interactions were found in the control group. In conclusion, in ASD, neuroticism moderates the association between appraised stress and NA as well as the association between social context and NA.
