YON-HERNÁNDEZ, Auteur ; Steve RUDER, Auteur ; Surina BOTHRA, Auteur ; Catherine GONZALES, Auteur ; Kali KECSKEMETI, Auteur ; Yukari TAKARAE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2054-2060 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Current United States statistics suggest that autistic individuals will experience high unemployment and underemployment rates throughout their lives. Furthermore, despite the passage of federal legislation to employ young autistic adults in competitive integrated settings, where they work alongside non-disabled workers and earn at least minimum wage, most individuals receiving state services still are placed in day programs or sheltered workshops. Since meaningful employment is the most important determinant of life satisfaction, this failure is a critical societal problem, exerting increasing pressure for systems change. But the news is not all bad. Private sector companies have increased their hiring of disabled workers, producing a growing base of expertise in the recruitment, on-boarding, training, and management of autistic employees. This has led to a growing recognition that autistic individuals can be ideal workers. Autism researchers have advanced the field by investigating these private industry programs as well as conducting efficacy trials of interventions and services that help autistic individuals in the workplace. However, gaps in knowledge persist stemming from the heterogeneity of autistic workers, limited knowledge about those not receiving state services, and a system of federal services that is fragmented, poorly coordinated, difficult to navigate, and over-taxed. Autism researchers can continue to improve outcomes of autistic workers through investigations of the fit between autistic workers, their preferences, and the characteristics of available jobs, and through effectiveness trails of promising employment interventions and services that promote systems change that help break down the barriers to better integration of existing state services and resources in the United States.

Differences in daily life executive functioning between people with autism and people with schizophrenia / Jo A. YON-HERNÁNDEZ in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-7 (July 2023)

Also we assessed the relationship between EF and adaptive behavior as measured by the Vineland Adaptive Behavioral Scale-II. Common areas of everyday executive functions were established as problematic in individuals with ASD and SSD related to Disinhibition and Apathy, while Disorganization and Impulsivity was gravely affected in ASD group only. The degree of Dysexecutive Syndrome was predictive of adaptive behavior in ASD group only. These suggest that DEX-Sp could be a useful tool in differentiating areas of strength and weaknesses in clinical groups such as ASD and SDD.

Episodic future thinking-induced forgetting: Exploring memory inhibitory mechanism in adults with autism / Dominika Z. WOJCIK in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 79 (November 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 79 (November 2020) . - 101667 Titre : Episodic future thinking-induced forgetting: Exploring memory inhibitory mechanism in adults with autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Dominika Z. WOJCIK, Auteur ; Emiliano DÍEZ, Auteur ; Ricardo CANAL-BEDIA, Auteur ; Antonio M. DÍEZ-ÁLAMO, Auteur ; Jo A. YON-HERNÁNDEZ, Auteur ; Angel FERNANDEZ, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101667 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Adults  Inhibition  Episodic future thinking-induced forgetting  Autobiographical memory Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background This study examined memory inhibitory control in adults with autism. Our interest stemmed from the idea that malfunctioning cognitive inhibition may contribute to symptoms such as thought perseverance and inflexibility of social interactions in this disorder. Method We drew from work in retrieval-induced forgetting which shows that retrieving items from memory causes forgetting of other competing information. We tested individuals with ASD (n = 19) and without ASD (n = 20) using a task whereby engaging in episodic future thinking (EFT) reduces the subsequent retrievability of related autobiographical memories (AMs). We also looked at a sample of AM and EFT narratives using an overall-richness measure expressed by a quantitative experiential index. Results Although adults with autism showed overall lower levels of richness in their AM and EFT productions, and contrary to our prediction, they demonstrated levels of memory inhibition that were comparable to controls. Conclusions The results suggest that memory inhibition, as measured by EFT-induced forgetting, is relatively intact in ASD and are discussed in terms of how automatic and effortful inhibitory processes in autism might be differentially affected.
