Research suggests that early gesture use has important downstream impacts on developmental processes, such as language learning. However, autistic children are more likely to have challenges in their gestural development. The current study expands upon previous literature on the differences in gesture use between young autistic and non-autistic toddlers by collecting data using a parent-report questionnaire called the MCDI-Words and Gestures at three time points, 12, 18, and 24?months of age. Results (N = 467) showed that high-likelihood infants who later met diagnostic criteria for ASD (n = 73 HL-ASD) have attenuated gesture growth from 12 to 24?months for both deictic gestures and symbolic gestures when compared to high-likelihood infants who later did not meet criteria for ASD (n = 249 HL-Neg) and low-likelihood infants who did not meet criteria for ASD (n = 145 LL-Neg). Other social communicative skills, like play behaviors and imitation, were also found to be impacted in young autistic children when compared to their non-autistic peers. Understanding early differences in social communication growth before a formal autism diagnosis can provide important insights for early intervention.

Predicting self-injurious behavior at age three among infant siblings of children with autism / Adele F. DIMIAN in Autism Research, 16-9 (September 2023)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 16-9 (September 2023) . - p.1670-1680 Titre : Predicting self-injurious behavior at age three among infant siblings of children with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Adele F. DIMIAN, Auteur ; Annette M. ESTES, Auteur ; Stephen DAGER, Auteur ; Joseph PIVEN, Auteur ; Jason J. WOLFF, Auteur ; for the IBIS NETWORK, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1670-1680 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Existing research suggests that self-injurious behavior (SIB) is a relatively common interfering behavior that can occur across the lifespan of individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). We previously reported that SIB or proto-injurious SIB at 12?months was related to increased risk of SIB at 24?months among a preschool sample of children with a high familial likelihood for ASD (Dimian et al., 2017). In the present study, we extend these findings, examine SIB occurrence, and associated potential risk factors at 36?months. The present sample included 149 infants with an older sibling with ASD (65.8% male) who completed assessments at ages 12, 24, and 36?months. Descriptive analyses and binary logistic regression models were utilized. SIB was more prevalent among those children who received a diagnosis of ASD. Logistic regression indicated that presence of SIB, stereotypy, hyper- and hypo- sensory responsivity, and lower intellectual functioning at age 12?months significantly predicted the occurrence of SIB at 36?months. These findings have implications for understanding developmental processes culminating in persistent SIB and may inform prevention programming.
