Longitudinal pathways between parent depression and child mental health in families of autistic children / Jessica Greenlee ; Daniel BOLT ; Kristin LITZELMAN ; Sigan L. HARTLEY in Development and Psychopathology, 37-4 (October 2025)

Leveraging three data cycles (spaced M = 11.76 months, SD = 2.77) on 162 families with autistic children (aged 6-13 years), the associations between parent-child relationship quality (warmth and criticism), child mental health problems, and parent depression symptoms were examined. A complete longitudinal mediation model was conducted using structural equation modeling. Father depression mediated the link between child mental health problems and father critical comments (? = ?0.017, p = 0.018; CI [?.023 - ?.015]). Father report of child mental health problems mediated the association between father depression and father critical comments (? = 0.016, p = 0.040; CI [0.003-0.023]) as well as the association between father positive remarks and father depression (? = ?0.009, p = 0.032; CI [?0.010 - ?0.009]). Additionally, father positive remarks mediated the connection between father depression and child mental health problems (? = 0.022, p = 0.006; CI [0.019-0.034]). No mediation effects were present for mothers. Findings highlight that the mental health of parents and autistic children are intertwined. Interventions that improve the parent-child relationship may reduce the reciprocal toll of parent and child mental health problems.

The effect of volatility in linguistic input on prediction behavior in autistic toddlers / Kathryn E. PRESCOTT in Autism Research, 17-11 (November 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 17-11 (November 2024) . - p.2305-2318 Titre : The effect of volatility in linguistic input on prediction behavior in autistic toddlers Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kathryn E. PRESCOTT, Auteur ; Janine MATHÉE-SCOTT, Auteur ; Daniel BOLT, Auteur ; Jenny SAFFRAN, Auteur ; Susan ELLIS WEISMER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2305-2318 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autistic disorder  child language  cognition  individuality  probability learning Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Domain-general prediction differences have been posited as underlying many aspects of the cognitive-behavioral profile in autism. An interesting potential implication of such differences is hyperplasticity of learning?the idea that autistic individuals may privilege more recent input over the accumulation of prior learning. Because real world language input is highly variable, hyperplasticity could have serious ramifications for language learning. To investigate potential hyperplasticity during a language processing task, we administered an experimental anticipatory eye movement (AEM) task to 2- to 3-year-old autistic children and neurotypical (NT) peers. Autistic children's change in anticipation from before to after a switch in contingencies did not significantly differ from NT counterparts, failing to support claims of hyperplasticity in the linguistic domain. Analysis of individual differences among autistic children revealed that cognitive ability was associated with prediction of the initial, stable contingencies, but neither age nor receptive language related to task performance. Results are discussed in terms of clinical implications and the broader context of research investigating prediction differences in autism.
