Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 132 (April 2026) . - 202866 Titre : Occupational therapy in Autism Spectrum Disorder: A scoping umbrella review of randomized controlled trials Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Marta MARCILLA-JORDÁ, Auteur ; Susana MONTAÑES-MARTÍ, Auteur ; César RUBIO-BELMONTE, Auteur ; Micaela MORO-IPOLA, Auteur Article en page(s) : 202866 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Occupational Therapy  Systematic Review  Randomized Controlled Trials  Outcome Measures  Assessment Résumé : Introduction The rising prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) highlights the need for effective interventions. Occupational therapists (OTs) are increasingly called upon to provide assessments and interventions for individuals with ASD. While many systematic reviews (SRs) have explored evidence-based OT interventions for ASD, there is a gap in the literature regarding the methodological quality of SRs, the outcome measures used in their included studies, and the degree of involvement of OT in the associated randomized controlled trials (RCTs). To address this, a scoping umbrella review of RCTs was developed. Methods The review adhered to PRISMA guidelines and was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42023387068). A search for SRs on OT and children/ youth with ASD was performed (October-November 2024). SRs quality was assessed using AMSTAR-2 tool and RCTs were extracted from the SRs. Results Ten SRs met the inclusion criteria, from which 43 RCTs were extracted and analysed. The most frequent professional profile in RCTs was "undefined profile" (54.5 %) and a total of 109 distinct assessment tools were identified. The three most frequently used outcome measures were the Vineland Adaptive Behaviour Scales, the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, and the Social Responsiveness Scale-2. Conclusion Findings reveal a need for high-quality OT research and a lack of RCTs where OTs play a leading role. Furthermore, while the three aforementioned tools are indispensable for diagnosis, their original purpose was not to measure intervention effectiveness. To conduct a quality assessment in ASD, assessment tools that can measure functionality and are sensitive to changes in symptomatology are needed.

Sensory Profile-2 in Autism Spectrum Disorder: An Analysis within the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health Framework / Catarina GRANDE ; Vera COELHO ; César RUBIO-BELMONTE ; Micaela MORO-IPOLA 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.1824-1839 Titre : Sensory Profile-2 in Autism Spectrum Disorder: An Analysis within the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health Framework Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Catarina GRANDE, Auteur ; Vera COELHO, Auteur ; César RUBIO-BELMONTE, Auteur ; Micaela MORO-IPOLA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1824-1839 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is characterized by impairments in many functional areas requiring long-term interventions to promote autonomy. This study aims to map The Sensory Profile? 2 (SP-2), one of the most widely used assessment tools in children with ASD, with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health for Children and Youth (ICF-CY), developed by the World Health Organization (WHO). This will allow the identification of the functional dimensions covered by this instrument and the comparison with the ICF shortlist proposed for autism (ICF Core Set [ICF-CS]). The deductive content analysis described in the ICF Linking Rules was followed, along with a systematized process including statistical and reasoning techniques that could contribute to the improvement of ICF linking studies (Cohen s Kappa and percentage of agreement). 218 codes were identified, 71% of them were codes related to the body functions chapters, mainly linked to perceptual functions (b160), emotional functions (b152), and temperament and personality functions (b126). Concerning activities and participation chapters (29%) the most frequently used codes were: focusing attention (d160), carrying out daily routine (d230), and walking (d450). Even though the SP-2 items do not assess most of the functional features regarded as essential in the ASD ICF-CS, SP-2 encompasses a majority of problems concerning body functions. This instrument may be considered as part of a multidimensional assessment approach, to complement other sources that are more likely to assess activity and participation dimensions and guide a functional intervention.
