Titre : Associations Between Parenting Stress and Quality Time in Families of Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rebecca S. BRADLEY, Auteur ; Grace L. STAPLES, Auteur ; Lauren B. QUETSCH, Auteur ; Lindsey S. ALOIA, Auteur ; Cynthia E. BROWN, Auteur ; Stephen M. KANNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.829-840 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Increased stress among parents of youth with ASD has been well-documented. However, research on aspects of the parent-child relationship and subsequent links to parenting stress is limited. We assessed parents (N = 511) of youth with ASD to examine relations between parenting stress and parent-child quality time (amount of quality time, shared enjoyment, synchronicity). Elevated parenting stress was associated with less time spent engaging with youth in shared activities and decreased parent and child enjoyment during shared interactions. Parents with elevated stress reported engaging in shared activities and experiencing synchronicity with their child less often than parents below the clinical threshold. Future research should emphasize longitudinal efforts examining the directionality of this relationship to better inform family-focused intervention.

Titre : More similar than different: Characterizing special interests in autistic boys and girls based on caregiver report Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Cynthia E. BROWN, Auteur ; Courtney J. BERNARDIN, Auteur ; Marshall T. BEAUCHAMP, Auteur ; Stephen M. KANNE, Auteur ; Kerri P. NOWELL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2333-2345 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : gender differences gender/female autism restrictive/repetitive behaviors Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Almost all autistic youths have special interests (SIs), which are focused, intense areas of passion and interest in a particular topic. Emerging research suggests that there are gender differences in SIs among autistic youth; however, commonly used measures that assess for the presence of SIs may not fully capture the granular nature of those differences between autistic boys and girls. Characterizing these differences is important for autism identification in girls, as SIs in autistic girls may often be overlooked by caregivers, teachers, and clinicians due to their more ?typical? and more socially oriented content areas compared to autistic boys. This study therefore aimed to more fully characterize gender differences in SIs using a newly developed caregiver-report measure of SIs (the Special Interests Survey; SIS). Caregivers of 1921 autistic youth completed the SIS. Analyses revealed many similarities between boys and girls; there were no gender differences in mean age SI onset, caregivers' perceptions of uniqueness or interferences of endorsed SIs, or duration of previous SIs. There were gender differences in endorsement of less than half (39%) of the SI categories measured, and there were minor differences in the number of endorsed current and past SIs. Categories with significant gender differences fell along typical gender lines (e.g., more boys interested in math and construction, more girls interested in animals and arts/crafts). This study extends the growing literature on SIs and gender differences in autism and has important implications for supporting autistic youth and their families.

Titre : Predictors of Aggression, Disruptive Behavior, and Anger Dysregulation in Youths with Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Cynthia E. BROWN, Auteur ; Lauren B. QUETSCH, Auteur ; Lindsey S. ALOIA, Auteur ; Stephen M. KANNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1264-1280 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience difficulties related to aggression, disruptive behavior, and regulation of emotions that precipitate these behaviors (i.e., anger). The extent to which aggression, disruptive behaviors, and anger dysregulation are correlated with distinct or overlapping factors has not yet been explored. The present study examined whether aspects of participant demographics, individual youth functioning, caregiver stress, and family warmth contributed to youth aggression, disruptive behavior, and anger dysregulation. Participants were caregivers of 511 youths with ASD. Analyses revealed that significant proportions of variance in aggression, disruptive behaviors, and anger dysregulation were accounted for by shared variables pertaining to demographics, the individual youth, and caregiver stress. Implications of treatment and future research are discussed.

KANNE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3998-4008 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Nearly all autistic youth have special interests (SIs), which are associated with many benefits and challenges. Most research on SIs has focused on the subject matter of SIs, with less focus on understanding how youth engage in their SIs. We conducted a qualitative study using inductive content analysis (ICA) to examine: (1) The modalities youth use to engage in their SIs, (2) the degree to which such modalities are described by caregivers as adaptive or maladaptive, and (3) the extent to which the SIs themselves are described by caregivers positively or negatively. We coded responses from 1922 caregivers of autistic youths who completed an online version of the Special Interests Survey, a caregiver-report measure of SIs. Responses to open-ended questions on the SIS, wherein caregivers describe the specific interest within the endorsed SI category, were used as data for the ICA. Frequencies of the codes were derived from cross-tabulation data. The ICA yielded eight modalities: perseverating, creating, information-seeking, memorizing, collecting, attachment, sensory-seeking, and self-soothing. Perseverating, collecting, and attachment were described as maladaptive and negatively by caregivers, whereas creating and information-seeking were described as adaptive. SIs with the greatest proportion of positive and negative descriptions were Plants and Objects, respectively. These findings suggest that SIs - and the degree to which they are described as beneficial or problematic - may be associated with modality and the subject matter. Considering how autistic individuals engage in SIs has implications for clinical work and future research in this area.
