The current study examined child and caregiver correlates of primary caregiver participation in meaningful activities. One hundred and six primary caregivers of Autistic children (7-12?years) were recruited from three unique cohorts of Autistic children in this cross-sectional study. Primary caregivers completed online questionnaires measuring occupational gaps (i.e., desired activities caregivers are not participating in), QoL, parenting stress, perceived family outcomes, and social support. In addition to undertaking direct assessments of children's cognition and language, primary caregivers also reported on their child's adaptive behavior, social-emotional skills, and participation. Caregivers reporting fewer occupational gaps (i.e., ?2 desired activities) were more likely to have Autistic children with no co-occurring conditions, who were older, and with better adaptive behaviors, social-emotional skills, and more frequent home and school participation, compared to caregivers reporting many gaps (i.e., ?3 desired activities). Caregivers with fewer occupational gaps also reported improved QoL, parenting stress, social support, perceived community inclusiveness, and family outcomes. Logistic regression analysis identified child age, child adaptive behavior, social-emotional skills, home participation, and the caregivers' perceived family outcomes and QoL as important predictors of their occupational gaps. The findings demonstrate that caregiver participation in desired activities was associated with increased functional ability and independence of the child, as well as their perceived capacity to meet their child's needs. Supporting parents' sense of efficacy in meeting their children's needs and building their skills and knowledge will serve to improve both caregiver and child outcomes.

Leisure, community, workforce participation and quality of life in primary and secondary caregivers of autistic children / Gemma DAVY in Autism Research, 17-4 (April 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 17-4 (April 2024) . - p.799-811 Titre : Leisure, community, workforce participation and quality of life in primary and secondary caregivers of autistic children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Gemma DAVY, Auteur ; Josephine BARBARO, Auteur ; Katy UNWIN, Auteur ; Megan CLARK, Auteur ; Rachel JELLETT, Auteur ; Perrin DATE, Auteur ; Melanie MUNIANDY, Auteur ; Cheryl DISSANAYAKE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.799-811 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Parents of Autistic children often modify their participation in leisure, social, and employment activities to meet the caregiving needs of their child. However, few studies have examined the impact this has on caregiver quality of life (QoL). The aim in the current study was to examine the role of participation in a range of activities on QoL amongst primary and secondary caregivers of school-aged Autistic children. Eighty-eight primary (93% mothers) and 63 secondary (91% fathers) caregivers of Autistic children (aged 7- to 12-years) participated in this cross-sectional study, with time pressure, participation, social support, parenting stress, and QoL measured via an online questionnaire. Compared to secondary caregivers, primary caregivers reported fewer employment hours, increased time pressure, less participation in desired activities, and higher perceived responsibility of domestic and child-rearing tasks. Similar levels of leisure frequency, parenting stress, and QoL were identified by both caregivers. Hierarchical regression revealed caregiver participation as important for QoL in both primary and secondary caregivers. However, when measures of caregiver well-being were added to the model, the unique contribution of participation to QoL was reduced, particularly for secondary caregivers. Overall, the findings demonstrate that despite differences in caregiver roles and responsibilities, participation in meaningful activities was important for QoL in all caregivers.

Prediction of school-age outcomes for autistic children following receipt of group-early start denver model / Megan CLARK in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 104 (June 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 104 (June 2023) . - 102164 Titre : Prediction of school-age outcomes for autistic children following receipt of group-early start denver model Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Megan CLARK, Auteur ; Zoe VINEN, Auteur ; Giacomo VIVANTI, Auteur ; Cheryl DISSANAYAKE, Auteur Article en page(s) : 102164 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Early Intervention  ESDM  Trajectories  Adaptive Behaviour  Cognition  School-age Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Early predictors of developmental outcomes of school-age autistic children aged 6-9 years were examined in the current study. Method: Thirty-one autistic children that had received 12-months of Group-based Early Start Denver Model (G-ESDM) in a community childcare during their pre-school years were followed longitudinally. Cognition and autism behaviours were re-assessed at school-age. Results: Children?s non-verbal and verbal cognition at baseline predicted within the same developmental domains at school age, with early verbal and non-verbal cognition also predicting adaptive behaviour at school age. Conclusions: This is the first study to document the relationship between early baseline characteristics at intake into EI and later school age outcomes following G-ESDM cessation. Importantly, the current findings reveal that developmental gains following receipt of a naturalistic developmental behavioural intervention within a community setting extend beyond the EI years and into the school years.

Social and Behavioural Outcomes of School Aged Autistic Children Who Received Community-Based Early Interventions / Zoe VINEN in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-5 (May 2023)

Adaptive functioning, social, peer play skills, problem behaviours, and attitudes towards school of 31 autistic children who received community-based group early start Denver model (G-ESDM) were compared to 28 age matched autistic children who received other community interventions. Similar adaptive behaviours, social skills, problem behaviours and attitudes towards school were found. Play disruption was the only dimension of play to differ; children that received community interventions demonstrated higher levels of play disruption compared to the G-ESDM group. Children had pervasive challenges in adaptive behaviour, social and play behaviour at school, irrespective of EI type. Thus, ongoing provisions are needed to support development into the school years.
