A recent clinical trial found that parent-led CBT – in which parents led their child through a guided CBT workbook with varying degrees of therapist support – was efficacious for reducing anxiety and associated functional impairment. While such findings demonstrate promise for future intervention development and dissemination efforts with this population, more work is needed to elucidate clinical factors that impact response to treatment as well as drop-out. Using data from the aforementioned clinical trial (N = 87), the present exploratory study examined pre-treatment patient characteristics, including family accommodation (FA), anxiety severity, autism features, and externalizing psychopathology, and their relationship with relevant treatment outcomes (i.e., anxiety severity and functional impairment) at both post-treatment and three-month follow-up and drop-out/completer status. Our findings did not reveal any consistent relations between pre-treatment patient characteristics and clinical outcomes, with several isolated exceptions: (a) baseline autism features were associated with greater post-treatment functional impairment; (b) non-male (vs. male) gender was associated with greater functional impairment at 3-month follow-up; and (c) Hispanic ethnicity (vs. non-Hispanic) was associated with greater likelihood of premature treatment drop-out. Findings are discussed in the context of the importance of continuing to elucidate unique patient characteristics predictive of optimal clinical outcomes for autistic youth with anxiety disorders.

Concurrent Validity of the Anxiety Disorders Section of the Anxiety Disorder Interview Schedule- Autism Spectrum Addendum (ADIS-ASA) in Autistic Youth / Samuel D. SPENCER in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 55-11 (November 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 55-11 (November 2025) . - p.4057-4067 Titre : Concurrent Validity of the Anxiety Disorders Section of the Anxiety Disorder Interview Schedule- Autism Spectrum Addendum (ADIS-ASA) in Autistic Youth Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Samuel D. SPENCER, Auteur ; Caitlin M. PINCIOTTI, Auteur ; Callie MURPHY, Auteur ; Alyssa HERTZ, Auteur ; Andrew D. WIESE, Auteur ; Jeffrey J. WOOD, Auteur ; Philip C. KENDALL, Auteur ; Eric A. STORCH, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.4057-4067 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Purpose: Examine the concurrent validity of specific Anxiety Disorders Section of the Anxiety Disorder Interview Schedule for DSM-IV-Autism Spectrum Addendum (ADIS-ASA)-Parent Interview in a sample of 167 autistic youth who met diagnostic criteria for an anxiety-related disorder (Mage = 9.91; 78.4% male; 82% non-Hispanic; 77.67% White). Methods: Concurrent validity of Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM)-defined ADIS-ASA anxiety disorder diagnostic caseness was examined via relations with (a) parent-reported dimensions of youth anxiety symptomology and (b) dimensional measures of youth anxiety-related functional impairment, respectively, using logistic regression models and point-biserial correlations. Results: Significant relations were found between separation anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder (but not generalized anxiety disorder nor obsessive-compulsive disorder) caseness, respectively, and theoretically consistent facets of dimensional youth anxiety symptomology. Relations between ADIS-ASA diagnostic caseness and youth functional impairment-related variables revealed that only separation anxiety disorder demonstrated robust evidence of convergent validity. Conclusion: Despite mixed findings concerning relations between ADIS-ASA anxiety disorder diagnostic caseness and dimensional measures of anxiety severity and anxiety-related impairment, the present findings provide further support for the status of the ADIS-ASA as a gold standard for assessment of anxiety in autistic youth. This work also highlights the importance of continuing to improve precision in measurement of anxiety symptomology in autistic youth, with implications for clinical assessment.
