Adding to the Conversation: Language Delays and Parent-Child Interactions in the Younger Siblings of Children With Autism / Jana M. IVERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-5 (May 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 55-5 (May 2025) . - p.1565-1579 Titre : Adding to the Conversation: Language Delays and Parent-Child Interactions in the Younger Siblings of Children With Autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jana M. IVERSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1565-1579 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In their first three years, children begin to maintain topics and add new information in conversation. In turn, caregivers create opportunities for language learning. Compared to children with no family history of autism (typical likelihood, TL), the younger siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at elevated likelihood (EL) for both ASD and language delays. This study asked: (1) Do profiles of spoken language and conversational skills differ across groups? (2) Does spoken language relate to conversational skills? and (3) How does parent speech relate to child spoken language and conversational skills? Child spoken language, conversational skills, and parent speech were examined during toy play at home with three-year-old TL (n = 16) and EL children with ASD (EL-ASD, n = 10), non-ASD language delay (EL-LD, n = 21), and no delays or diagnoses (EL-ND, n = 37). EL-ASD children produced fewer intelligible utterances, and EL-LD and EL-ASD children produced shorter utterances than TL and EL-ND children. When utterances were intelligible, all groups were highly contingent to the topic. EL-ASD children were less likely than all other groups to add new information, and adding new information was positively associated with utterance length. Parents of EL-ASD children had fewer opportunities to respond contingently. However, all parents were highly topic-contingent when child speech was intelligible, and parent speech complexity varied with child language and conversational skills. Findings highlight strengths in conversational skills for EL-ASD children during toy play with parents and show that children and caregivers together shape opportunities for developing language and conversation.

Annual Research Review: Developmental language disorder – a hidden condition with lifelong impact / Jana M. IVERSON in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 67-4 (April 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 67-4 (April 2026) . - p.546-565 Titre : Annual Research Review: Developmental language disorder – a hidden condition with lifelong impact Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jana M. IVERSON, Auteur ; Diane L. WILLIAMS, Auteur Année de publication : 2026 Article en page(s) : p.546-565 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Language disorder  child development Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Developmental language disorder (DLD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders. Yet, it is a hidden disorder: it can go undetected for years and may not be uncovered until academic, behavioral, and/or mental health challenges begin to surface. In this review, we survey what is currently known about DLD across the lifespan, with a particular focus on its collateral effects in childhood and adulthood. We begin with a brief discussion of terminological issues that have contributed to the confusion about and lack of awareness of DLD. We then describe the development of DLD from infancy through adulthood, the ways in which its presentation shifts over time and with transitions to new developmental tasks and contexts, and some of the significant associated challenges outside of the language domain that are often faced by people with DLD. Next, we review current scientific knowledge about the neurobiological and genetic bases of DLD. In the final section, we provide an overview of some of the current best practices for screening and assessment and approaches to intervention for children, adolescents, and adults. We conclude by reflecting on challenges and opportunities for future research and offering some recommendations for clinical practice, particularly for mental health practitioners.

Atypical Cry Acoustics in 6-Month-Old Infants at Risk for Autism Spectrum Disorder / Stephen J. SHEINKOPF in Autism Research, 5-5 (October 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 5-5 (October 2012) . - p.331-339 Titre : Atypical Cry Acoustics in 6-Month-Old Infants at Risk for Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Stephen J.

LESTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.331-339 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism  infancy  cry  vocalizations  acoustic analysis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study examined differences in acoustic characteristics of infant cries in a sample of babies at risk for autism and a low-risk comparison group. Cry samples derived from vocal recordings of 6-month-old infants at risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD; n=21) and low-risk infants (n=18) were subjected to acoustic analyses using analysis software designed for this purpose. Cries were categorized as either pain-related or non-pain-related based on videotape coding. At-risk infants produced pain-related cries with higher and more variable fundamental frequency (F 0) than low-risk infants. At-risk infants later classified with ASD at 36 months had among the highest F 0 values for both types of cries and produced cries that were more poorly phonated than those of nonautistic infants, reflecting cries that were less likely to be produced in a voiced mode. These results provide preliminary evidence that disruptions in cry acoustics may be part of an atypical vocal signature of autism in early life.

Bidding on the go: Links between walking, social actions, and caregiver responses in infant siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder / Bianca T. CALABRETTA in Autism Research, 15-12 (December 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 15-12 (December 2022) . - p.2324-2335 Titre : Bidding on the go: Links between walking, social actions, and caregiver responses in infant siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Bianca T. CALABRETTA, Auteur ; Joshua L. SCHNEIDER, Auteur ; Jana M. IVERSON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2324-2335 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Infant  Child  Humans  Autism Spectrum Disorder/diagnosis  Siblings  Caregivers  Walking  approaching  caregiver responses  developmental cascades  infant walking  language input  moving bids  object carrying Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The development of walking is associated with a shift in how neurotypical infants initiate social interactions. Walking infants are more likely to locate objects in distant places, carry them, and then share those objects by approaching caregivers and using gestures to show or offer their discoveries (i.e., moving bids). The simultaneous organization of the behaviors necessary to generate moving bids requires the coordination of multiple skills-walking, fine motor skills, and gesturing. Infants with an elevated likelihood (EL) for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) exhibit differences and delays in each of these behaviors. This study investigated interconnections between infant walking, social actions, and caregiver responses in 18-month-old EL infants with diverse developmental outcomes (ASD, non-ASD language delay, no diagnosis). We observed 85 infant-caregiver dyads at home during everyday activities for 45 minutes and identified all times when infants walked, instances of walking paired with social action (i.e., approaching the caregiver, approaching while carrying an object, producing a moving bid), and whether caregivers responded to their infants' social actions. There were no group differences in infants' production of social actions. Caregiver responses, however, were more clearly modulated by outcome group. While all caregivers were similarly and highly likely to respond to moving bids, caregivers of EL-ASD infants were substantially more likely to respond when their infants simply approached them (with or without an object in hand). Taken together, this research underscores the complexity of EL infant-caregiver interactions and highlights the role that each partner plays in shaping how they unfold.

Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Female protective effect  High-risk siblings  Sex differences Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Messinger et al. found a 3.18 odds ratio of male to female ASD recurrence in 1241 prospectively followed high-risk (HR) siblings. Among high-risk siblings (with and without ASD), as well as among 583 low-risk controls, girls exhibited higher performance on the Mullen Scales of Early Learning, as well as lower restricted and repetitive behavior severity scores on the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) than boys. That is, female-favoring sex differences in developmental performance and autism traits were evident among low-risk and non-ASD high-risk children, as well as those with ASD. Constantino (Mol Autism) suggests that sex differences in categorical ASD outcomes in Messinger et al. should be understood as a female protective effect. We are receptive to Constantino's (Mol Autism) suggestion, and propose that quantitative sex differences in autism-related features are keys to understanding this female protective effect.
