Titre : Brief report: A confirmatory factor analysis of the Child Behavior Checklist in a large sample of autistic youth Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Laura DE LA ROCHE, Auteur ; Brianne DERBY, Auteur ; Molly PASCOE, Auteur ; Melissa SUSKO, Auteur ; Sabrina LUTCHMEAH, Auteur ; Jessica JONES, Auteur ; Stelios GEORGIADES, Auteur ; Rob NICOLSON, Auteur ; Evdokia ANAGNOSTOU, Auteur ; Elizabeth KELLEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : 102487 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Child Behavior Checklist Factor structure Co-occurring conditions Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Autistic youth often experience co-occurring psychiatric conditions. Checklist measures such as the Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) can assist clinicians and researchers in assessing the symptom profiles of such conditions. Symptom profiles often overlap between autism and cooccurring psychiatric conditions (e.g., depression) in which the same symptoms occur in both. Previous research investigating the validity of the CBCL in autistic populations using factor structure has been mixed. Method Seven-hundred-and-fourteen autistic youth (293 females) aged 6-18 years (M = 11.25, SD = 3.29) participated. A confirmatory factor analysis of the 8-factor CBCL-6-18 was completed. Results Results suggest a poor model fit in autistic samples of the widely used eight-scale factor structure. Conclusions This model may not fit this sample due to the overlap of symptomatology autism has with other psychiatric condition profiles (e.g., communication and behaviors). Future research and implications, including an exploratory factor analysis on the CBCL/6-18 for autistic populations, are discussed.

Titre : Experiences of Affiliate Stigma and Depressive Symptoms in Caregivers of Autistic Children: The Moderating Effect of Social Support Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kayla GORDON, Auteur ; Melissa SUSKO, Auteur ; Laura DE LA ROCHE, Auteur ; Elizabeth KELLEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1398-1407 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Caregivers with an autistic child often experience stigma, which can lead to detrimental mental health consequences. Affiliate stigma is the internalization of, and psychological responses to, stigma experienced due to an individual’s association with a person who is stigmatized. Social support has been shown to mediate the relationship between affiliate stigma and depression in caregivers of special needs children. However, research on social support as a moderator of this relationship in autistic children has not been completed. We examined the associations between affiliate stigma, social support, and depression as well as the moderating role of social support. Using online questionnaires, 110 caregivers of autistic children reported their child’s autistic traits, affiliate stigma, perceived social support and depressive symptoms. A moderated regression was run to determine if social support significantly impacted the association between affiliate stigma and depression. Affiliate stigma was positively associated with depressive symptoms and social support was negatively associated with depressive symptoms. The moderating effect of social support on the relationship between affiliate stigma and depressive symptoms was not significant. Upon separating the social support variable into family, significant other, and friend subgroups, no additional significant moderators were found. This is one of the first studies to investigate affiliate stigma in North America and demonstrates that affiliate stigma is not only experienced by parents of autistic children but is significantly associated with depression. Clinicians working with these parents might focus on overcoming affiliate stigma to potentially ameliorate their client’s depression.

Titre : Investigating the general psychopathology factor in autistic youth Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Hannah Muriel Robb BURROWS, Auteur ; Brianne DERBY, Auteur ; Laura DE LA ROCHE, Auteur ; Melissa SUSKO, Auteur ; Rob NICOLSON, Auteur ; Stelios GEORGIADES, Auteur ; Jessica JONES, Auteur ; Evdokia ANAGNOSTOU, Auteur ; Elizabeth KELLEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.102519 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : General psychopathology factor Autism Internalizing Externalizing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Autistic youth are at higher risk of presenting with co-occurring internalizing (I) (i.e., anxiety and depression) and externalizing (E) (i.e., aggression and impulsivity) disorders (Bauminger et al., 2010). The Child Behavior Checklist for ages 6-18 (CBCL/6-18; Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001) is a measure of I-E disorders and symptoms in autistic and neurotypical youth, providing norm-referenced subscales as factors for each form of psychopathology. The general psychopathology or "p" factor may provide a better measure of co-occurring disorders in autism as it has not been evaluated in this population contextually to date. The p factor proposes that psychopathological disorders come from the same etiological factor, implying that we can measure all I-E disorders as indicators of p. Method Using archival data from the Province of Ontario Neurodevelopmental Disorders (POND) Network, (N = 782) autistic youths' raw scores from the CBCL/6-18 were analyzed using two confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs): an I-E CFA and a p factor CFA. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) was also conducted to determine the best-fitting factor structure. Results A chi-square difference test compared each CFA to find the best model fit. Results reported each model as individually significant, however, based on recommendations from Hoyle and Panter (1995), neither model had an acceptable fit. Conclusions Given that neither the p factor nor the internalizing/externalizing factor models had appropriate fit, it is recommended that future research investigate whether the CBCL/6-18 is the most appropriate measure for assessing co-occurring symptoms in autistic youth. The results of the EFA also suggest that the CBCL may not be the most appropriate measure for autistic youth.
