WODKA, Auteur ; Tiffany G. WOYNAROSKI, Auteur Article en page(s) : 31 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Differences in responding to sensory stimuli, including sensory hyperreactivity (HYPER), hyporeactivity (HYPO), and sensory seeking (SEEK) have been observed in autistic individuals across sensory modalities, but few studies have examined the structure of these "supra-modal" traits in the autistic population. METHODS: Leveraging a combined sample of 3868 autistic youth drawn from 12 distinct data sources (ages 3-18 years and representing the full range of cognitive ability), the current study used modern psychometric and meta-analytic techniques to interrogate the latent structure and correlates of caregiver-reported HYPER, HYPO, and SEEK within and across sensory modalities. Bifactor statistical indices were used to both evaluate the strength of a "general response pattern" factor for each supra-modal construct and determine the added value of "modality-specific response pattern" scores (e.g., Visual HYPER). Bayesian random-effects integrative data analysis models were used to examine the clinical and demographic correlates of all interpretable HYPER, HYPO, and SEEK (sub)constructs. RESULTS: All modality-specific HYPER subconstructs could be reliably and validly measured, whereas certain modality-specific HYPO and SEEK subconstructs were psychometrically inadequate when measured using existing items. Bifactor analyses supported the validity of a supra-modal HYPER construct (?(H)=.800) but not a supra-modal HYPO construct (?(H)=.653), and supra-modal SEEK models suggested a more limited version of the construct that excluded some sensory modalities (?(H)=.800; 4/7 modalities). Modality-specific subscales demonstrated significant added value for all response patterns. Meta-analytic correlations varied by construct, although sensory features tended to correlate most with other domains of core autism features and co-occurring psychiatric symptoms (with general HYPER and speech HYPO demonstrating the largest numbers of practically significant correlations). LIMITATIONS: Conclusions may not be generalizable beyond the specific pool of items used in the current study, which was limited to caregiver report of observable behaviors and excluded multisensory items that reflect many "real-world" sensory experiences. CONCLUSION: Of the three sensory response patterns, only HYPER demonstrated sufficient evidence for valid interpretation at the supra-modal level, whereas supra-modal HYPO/SEEK constructs demonstrated substantial psychometric limitations. For clinicians and researchers seeking to characterize sensory reactivity in autism, modality-specific response pattern scores may represent viable alternatives that overcome many of these limitations.

This study characterized sensory integration differences in a cohort of children (n=93) with a confirmed diagnosis of autism (5-9 years) using a standardized, norm-referenced battery. Mean z scores, autism diagnostic scores, and IQ are reported. Participants showed substantial deficits in tactile perception, praxis, balance, visual perception, and visual-motor skills. Relationship with autism diagnostic test scores were weak or absent. Findings suggest additional sensory difficulties that are not typically assessed or considered when characterizing sensory features in autism. These data have implications for a greater understanding of the sensory features in the autism phenotype and the development of personalized treatments.

Sensory adaptive environments (SAEs) are being increasingly used to reduce distress, increase enjoyment, and support opportunities for interaction. However, despite the increased prevalence of SAEs, there is little guidance in the literature indicating how to effectively create and use these spaces, including the components, equipment, and activities that are to be performed. Method A scoping review was conducted to address the following research question: What are the sensory experiences, equipment, and outcomes related to the use of sensory adaptive environments for autistic children? Thirteen studies met inclusion criteria and were categorized in terms of their study design, setting, sensory equipment, and outcome measures. Results A wide range of countries and study designs were represented. Sensory equipment spanned visual, auditory, tactile/deep pressure, olfactory, and vestibular domains. Six out of thirteen studies included safety and/or training protocols for using the SAE. The most represented environments were schools and healthcare settings. SAEs also varied in terms of their design purpose and level of technology. Conclusion As SAEs are becoming increasingly prevalent, there is a need to understand the evidence for their design. Current evidence is mixed, with the need for more research and more robust study designs.
