Discrepantly high VIQ and NVIQ were associated with autism social symptoms but not communication symptoms or repetitive behaviors. Higher VIQ and NVIQ were associated with better adaptive communication but not socialization or Daily Living Skills. IQ discrepancy may be an important phenotypic marker in autism. Although better verbal abilities are associated with better functional outcomes in autism, discrepantly high VIQ in high-functioning children may also be associated with social difficulties.

Early language milestones predict later language, but not autism symptoms in higher functioning children with autism spectrum disorders / Lauren E. KENWORTHY in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-3 (July-September 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 6-3 (July-September 2012) . - p.1194-1202 Titre : Early language milestones predict later language, but not autism symptoms in higher functioning children with autism spectrum disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lauren E. KENWORTHY, Auteur ; Gregory L. WALLACE, Auteur ; Kelly POWELL, Auteur ; Cheryl ANSELMO, Auteur ; Alex MARTIN, Auteur ; David O. BLACK, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1194-1202 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic disorder  Outcome studies  Language  Communication  Milestones Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Language ability is a known predictor of outcome in children with autism but plays a more controversial role for higher functioning children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). We studied the relationship between early language milestones and later structural language, adaptive functioning and autism symptoms in a sample of 76 children (mean age = 9.1 years) with an ASD, using two different language milestones: first phrase by 24 or 36 months. After controlling for age and nonverbal abilities, retrospectively reported early language milestones were predictive of later structural language abilities, measured by a sentence repetition task, and adaptive communication skills, but not autism symptoms or adaptive social skills. Acquisition of phrase speech by 24 months was sensitive to language and communication impairments in our ASD group, the majority (84%) of which had already acquired phrase speech by 36 months of age. Early available and easily collectable milestone data may be a useful marker of later language performance even in higher functioning, verbal children on the autism spectrum. When a detailed assessment of language is not possible, data on early milestones may be useful for identifying children at-risk in clinical settings and for language phenotyping in the laboratory.

Sex Differences in Toddlers with Autism Spectrum Disorders / Alice S. CARTER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 37-1 (January 2007)

Participants in this study of sex differences in developmental profiles and clinical symptoms were 22 girls and 68 boys with ASD (mean age = 28 months). All children achieved strongest performance in visual reception and fine motor followed by gross motor and language functioning. Sex differences emerged in developmental profiles. Controlling for language, girls achieved higher visual reception scores than boys; boys attained higher language and motor scores and higher social-competence ratings than girls, particularly when controlling for visual reception. Longitudinal, representative studies are needed to elucidate the developmental and etiological significance of the observed sex differences.

The ADOS Calibrated Severity Score: Relationship to Phenotypic Variables and Stability over Time / Stacy SHUMWAY in Autism Research, 5-4 (August 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 5-4 (August 2012) . - p.267-76 Titre : The ADOS Calibrated Severity Score: Relationship to Phenotypic Variables and Stability over Time Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Stacy SHUMWAY, Auteur ; Cristan A. FARMER, Auteur ; Audrey THURM, Auteur ; Lisa JOSEPH, Auteur ; David O. BLACK, Auteur ; Christine GOLDEN, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.267-76 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism diagnostic observation schedule (ADOS)  autism spectrum disorders  severity  diagnosis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Measurement of the severity of autism at a single time point, and over time, is a widespread challenge for researchers. Recently, Gotham, Pickles, and Lord published a severity metric (calibrated severity scores; CSS) that takes into account age and language level and is based on raw total scores of the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS), a standardized measure commonly used in autism diagnosis. The present study examined psychometric characteristics of the CSS compared to raw scores in an independent sample of 368 children aged 2 to 12 years with autism, pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS), non-spectrum delay, or typical development. Reflecting the intended calibration, the CSS were more uniformly distributed within clinical diagnostic category and across ADOS modules than were raw scores. Cross-sectional analyses examining raw and severity scores and their relationships to participant characteristics revealed that verbal developmental level was a significant predictor of raw score but accounted for significantly less variance in the CSS. Longitudinal analyses indicated overall stability of the CSS over 12 to 24 months in children with autism. Findings from this study support the use of the CSS as a more valid indicator of autism severity than the ADOS raw total score, and extend the literature by examining the stability over 12 to 24 months of the CSS in children with ASD.
