Autism identity in young adults and the relationships with participation, quality of life, and well-being / Dovrat SAGIE ; Efrat SELANIKYO ; Sonya MEYER ; Eynat GAL in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 111 (March 2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 111 (March 2024) . - p.102311 Titre : Autism identity in young adults and the relationships with participation, quality of life, and well-being Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Dovrat SAGIE, Auteur ; Efrat SELANIKYO, Auteur ; Sonya MEYER, Auteur ; Eynat GAL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.102311 Mots-clés : Autism  Identity  Young adults  Quality of life  Well-being Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Autism presents self-identity challenges across the lifespan. Like ?illness identity,? the degree to which a person integrates chronic illness into their self-identity, autism identity entails unique issues following diagnosis. Accepting the diagnosis allows better coping with its challenges and psychological, social, and physical functioning. However, knowledge of autism identity?s relationship with social participation in environments such as home, school, and community, quality of life (QoL), and personal well-being is limited. This study aimed to present an autism-identity profile of young adults and assess those relationships. Method This cross-sectional study included 42 autistic adults (18?25 years; M = 19.62, SD = 1.1) recruited from a postsecondary training program. All completed an Illness Identity Questionnaire adapted for autism, Child and Adolescent Scale of Participation, QoL Questionnaire, and Personal Well-Being Index. We calculated autism-identity profiles using descriptive statistics and examined relationships between self-reported autism-identity perceptions and participation, QoL, and well-being using Pearson?s correlations and stepwise linear regressions. Results The participants reported significantly higher positive than negative autism-identity feelings, t(41) = 6.17, p < .001, d = .95. Higher positive autism-identity perception significantly correlated with higher reported participation (r = .44, p < .01) and QoL (r = .36, p < .05). Higher engulfment feelings (i.e., feeling that autism overwhelms the individual?s identity) significantly predicted lower social participation and well-being. Conclusions Although natural development and social and educational environments affect identity and self-perception, caregivers, educators, and support services should help autistic young adults adopt more positive and reduce negative feelings about their autism.

Eating and feeding problems and gastrointestinal dysfunction in Autism Spectrum Disorders / Roni Enten VISSOKER in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 12 (April 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 12 (April 2015) . - p.10-21 Titre : Eating and feeding problems and gastrointestinal dysfunction in Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Roni Enten VISSOKER, Auteur ; Yael LATZER, Auteur ; Eynat GAL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.10-21 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Eating problems  Feeding problems  Gastrointestinal dysfunction  ASD  Autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Eating and feeding problems, most commonly food selectivity or picky eating, are common among children with ASD. While these behaviors are typically addressed through occupational or behavior-based therapeutic approaches, increasing evidence shows than in many cases, such eating and feeding problems may be organic and stem from some form of underlying gastrointestinal dysfunction. This review highlights the literature on eating/feeding problems in children with ASD, as well as the contributing factors to eating problems and their nutritional implications in this population. In addition, the various manifestations and origins of gastrointestinal dysfunction in ASD are included. Ten relevant studies that address eating and feeding problems and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and dysfunction in children with ASD and the possible mechanisms underlying the eating/feeding problems in children with ASD are discussed. This review suggests a strong relationship and significant correlations between eating problems and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Further exploration of their relationship and etiology for the development of interventions are recommended.

Increasing social engagement in children with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder using collaborative technologies in the school environment / Nirit BAUMINGER-ZVIELY in Autism, 17-3 (May 2013)

Two computer programs were included in the intervention: “Join-In” to teach collaboration and “No-Problem” to teach conversation. Assessment in the socio-cognitive area included concept perception measures, problem solving, Theory of Mind, and a dyadic drawing collaborative task to examine change in children’s social engagement. Results demonstrated improvement in the socio-cognitive area with children providing more active social solutions to social problems and revealing more appropriate understanding of collaboration and social conversation after intervention, with some improvement in Theory of Mind. Improvement in actual social engagement was more scattered.
