HOFFMAN, Auteur ; Betsy H. BOTTS, Auteur ; Dwight P. SWEENEY, Auteur ; Muriel C. LOPEZ-WAGNER, Auteur ; Danelle HODGE, Auteur ; Cindy Y. NAM, Auteur Année de publication : 2008 Article en page(s) : p.155-165 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism sleep-problems maternal-stress Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Parenting a child with autism has been associated with maternal stress. The present investigation examined children's sleep difficulties and severity of autism along with mothers' sleep problems in relation to stress levels reported by mothers ( N = 72). Mothers' reports of their children's sleep problems were related to mothers' reports of their own sleep difficulties and to the severity of children's autistic symptoms. Severity of autism was predictive of mothers' stress. After controlling for child age and gender, mothers' sleep, and severity of autism, children's sleep was a significant predictor (p < .001) of maternal stress. Findings suggest including children's sleep problems along with their symptomatic behavior when examining factors that contribute to stress in mothers of children with autism.

Children With Autism: Sleep Problems and Symptom Severity / Megan E. TUDOR in Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 27-4 (December 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inFocus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities > 27-4 (December 2012) . - p.254-262 Titre : Children With Autism: Sleep Problems and Symptom Severity Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Megan E. TUDOR, Auteur ; Charles D. HOFFMAN, Auteur ; Dwight P. SWEENEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.254-262 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism  sleep problems  stereotyped behaviors  communication  social interaction Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Relationships between the specific sleep problems and specific behavioral problems of children with autism were evaluated. Mothers’ reports of sleep habits and autism symptoms were collected for 109 children with autism. Unlike previous research in this area, only children diagnosed with autism without any commonly comorbid diagnoses (e.g., intellectual disability, epilepsy) were included in the analysis. Consistent with prior work, a positive correlation between the severity of sleep problems and the severity of autism symptoms was obtained. Sleep onset delay and sleep duration were positively correlated with autism symptoms and autism severity. Sleep onset delay was the strongest predictor of communication deficit, stereotyped behavior, and autism severity. These results provide support for specific sleep problem and symptom relationships that are unique to autism and suggest the importance of including the treatment of sleep problems as part of a comprehensive behavioral intervention for children with autism.

Methods for assessing sleep in children with autism spectrum disorders: A review / Danelle HODGE in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-4 (October-December 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 6-4 (October-December 2012) . - p.1337-1344 Titre : Methods for assessing sleep in children with autism spectrum disorders: A review Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Danelle HODGE, Auteur ; Andrea M. N. PARNELL, Auteur ; Charles D. HOFFMAN, Auteur ; Dwight P. SWEENEY, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.1337-1344 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Sleep  Polysomnography  Actigraphy  Videosomnography Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A literature review completed by Bauer and Blunden (2008) determined that compared to objective measures, subjective assessments of sleep for typically developing children (e.g., parental reports) were of limited utility. No comparable literature review has been undertaken to determine whether subjective measures are appropriate for assessing sleep in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Such a review is necessary as children with ASD have more sleep problems than typically developing children and children's sleep difficulties can negatively affect the child and other family members. It is, therefore, important to have measures of sleep for children with ASD that can reliably detect sleep problems and track improvements in sleep. This literature review described frequently used measures of children's sleep and evaluated their utility for assessing sleep in children with ASD. It was determined that, with the exception of sleep latency, parents’ reports of children's sleep are not consistently associated with objective measures of children's sleep. This was true for single-item parent-reports and for a widely used multi-item parent-report measure of children's sleep. Limitations of objective sleep measures (e.g., polysomnography, actigraphy), including the inability of children with ASD to tolerate such methods, are described.

The only scores that did not differ were from the Attachment subscale, which indicates lack of emotional closeness and rather cold patterns of parent-child interaction. Mean Child Domain subscale scores for mothers in the autism group were at the 99th percentile; mean scores on the Attachment subscale were at about the 50th percentile for both groups. Despite substantial stress, mothers of children with autism report close relationships with their children. Results substantiate the need to develop interventions to help these mothers reduce their stress.

Relationship Between Children’s Sleep and Mental Health in Mothers of Children with and Without Autism / Danelle HODGE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 43-4 (April 2013)

Using structural equation modeling, maternal sleep and maternal stress mediated the relationship between children’s sleep and mothers’ mental health for mothers of children with and without ASDs. Mothers of children with ASDs reported more problems related to children’s sleep, their own sleep, greater stress, and poorer mental health; however, children’s sleep and maternal sleep were more closely related to maternal stress for mothers of typically developing children. Implications of these findings and future directions for research are discussed.
