Titre : School Functions in Unaffected Siblings of Youths with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yi-Ling CHIEN, Auteur ; En-Nien TU, Auteur ; Susan Shur-Fen GAU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3059-3071 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Siblings School functioning Predictors Academic performance School social problems Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study investigated school functioning among unaffected siblings of youths with autistic spectrum disorder (ASD) and identified the correlates for school maladjustment. We recruited 66 youths with a clinical diagnosis of ASD, aged 8–19, their unaffected siblings and 132 typically developing controls (TD). We found that ASD youths had poorer school functions than unaffected siblings and TD. Unaffected siblings had poorer attitude toward schoolwork and more severe behavioral problems at school than TD. Several associated factors for different scholastic functional domains (i.e., academic performance, attitude toward school work, social interactions, behavioral problems) in the siblings included IQ, autistic traits, inattention/oppositional symptoms, sibling relationships, etc. Our findings suggest the need of assessing school functions in unaffected siblings of ASD.

Titre : Sleep problems among Taiwanese children with autism, their siblings and typically developing children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Miao-Churn CHOU, Auteur ; Wen-Jiun CHOU, Auteur ; Huey-Ling CHIANG, Auteur ; Yu-Yu WU, Auteur ; Ju-Chin LEE, Auteur ; Ching-Ching WONG, Auteur ; Susan Shur-Fen GAU, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.665-672 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic disorder Children Unaffected sibling Parenting style Sleep schedules Sleep problems Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current study compared the sleep schedules, sleep problems among children with autism, their siblings and typically developing children, and to explore other associated factors with sleep problems. We conducted a case-control study consisting 110 children with autistic disorder, 125 unaffected siblings, and 110 age-, sex-, and parental education-matched typically developing children, aged 4–13 years old. We conducted psychiatric interviews to obtain DSM-IV diagnosis of autistic disorder and confirmed by the Chinese Version of the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised. The mothers were asked to report on the self-administered questionnaires regarding sleep schedules and problems of their children and parenting styles. Our results showed that children with autism had more sleep problems, including early insomnia, middle insomnia, sleep–wake schedule disorders and daytime napping. Their unaffected siblings also had more risk of early insomnia, sleep-talking and nightmares, compared to the typically developing children in non-autistic family. We also found an association between bring-up experience and nightmare, and between maternal overprotection and middle insomnia and sleep–wake schedule disorder. The findings of increased risks for sleep problems in both children with autism and their unaffected sibling suggest that parenting counseling should be included in intervention of sleep problems in children with autism and their siblings.

We assessed 64 children with ASD, 64 with ADHD, 64 with epilepsy, and 64 typically developing children without any neuropsychiatric disorders by using a sex-and age-matched case–control study design. The parents reported their children's sleep problems. Parents of children with ASD and ADHD reported more current and lifetime sleep problems of their children than parents of children with epilepsy, especially in snoring and restless legs syndrome. Current or lifetime sleep problems did not differ between children with ASD and children with ADHD, or between children with epilepsy and typically developing children. Demographic characteristics and medication status could not fully explain the increased risk of sleep problems in children with ASD and ADHD. Our findings lend evidence to support more sleep problems in children with ASD and ADHD than typically developing children. Our study adds that children with epilepsy do not. These findings emphasize the importance to assess sleep problems in children with neurodevelopmental disorders highly comorbid with ASD or ADHD in clinical practice.

Titre : Suicidality in Children with Elevated Autistic Traits Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ying-Yeh CHEN, Auteur ; Yi-Lung CHEN, Auteur ; Susan Shur-Fen GAU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1811-1821 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autistic traits suicidal ideation suicidal plan suicidality suicide attempt Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : By using a nationally representative school-based sample (4,816 children aged 8-14?years), we examined the risk of suicidality in children with elevated autistic traits and assessed the mediation of anxiety/depression and moderation effects of family function and academic performance. The Chinese version of the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS-C) was used to measure autistic features. Logistic regression models were applied to assess associations between autistic traits and suicidality (suicidal ideation, suicide plans, and suicide attempts) for estimating the mediation effects of anxiety/depression and moderation effects of academic performance and family function after adjustment for control variables. Every 10-point increase in the SRS-C score was associated with a 1.3-1.4-fold increase in suicidality risk. Associations relating to suicide plans and attempts were fully mediated; however, the association with ideation was partially mediated by anxiety/depression. Academic performance and family function did not appear to moderate associations between autistic traits and suicidality. In conclusion, children with elevated autistic traits exhibited increased risk of suicidality, which could be generally attributed to symptoms of anxiety/depression. Because adequate family function and academic performance did not mitigate the link between elevated autistic traits and suicidality, in-depth exploration into specific protective factors in children with elevated autistic traits is warranted. LAY SUMMARY: By using a nationally representative school-based sample (4,816 children aged 8-14?years), we observed that the risk of suicidality increased in children with elevated autistic traits. This association was generally explained by increased levels of anxiety/depression. Furthermore, better family function and academic performance did not appear to mitigate the link between autistic traits and suicidality.

Titre : The mediators for the link between autism and real-world executive functions in adolescence and young adulthood Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yi-Ling CHIEN, Auteur ; Yueh-Ming TAI, Auteur ; Yen-Nan CHIU, Auteur ; Wen-Che TSAI, Auteur ; Susan Shur-Fen GAU, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.881-895 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorder,developmental changes,mediator,real-world executive functions Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The mediators of real-world executive functions in autism during the transition into adulthood are mainly unknown. This study aimed to identify the mediators for the behavioral and cognitive domains of real-world executive functions in late adolescent and young adult autistic populations. We followed up 289 autistic children (aged 11.6?+?3.8, male 82.2%) and 203 non-autistic controls (10.7?+?2.9, 66.5%) to their ages of 16.9?+?4.7 and 15.8?+?3.9, respectively. The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, comprising two global scales (Behavioral Regulation Index and the Metacognitive Index), was used to assess real-world executive functions at Time 2. Mediators of behavior regulation and metacognition were explored among a wide range of clinical correlates and parental bonding. We found that the autistic group had lower executive functions than the non-autistic group with lower behavior regulation and metacognition subscores. Several childhood factors were significant mediators. Multiple mediation analyses revealed that childhood inattention remained a significant mediator for both behavior regulation and metacognition in late adolescence, and peer problems were the specific mediators of metacognition. Our findings suggest several childhood factors may mediate real-world executive functions during late adolescence. Treating common mediators such as inattention may improve real-world executive functions in autistic individuals during adulthood. Lay abstract Childhood factors that predict real-world executive function in autism spectrum disorder during the transition into adulthood are largely unknown. This study aimed to identify the predictors for the behavioral and cognitive aspects of real-world executive function in late adolescent and young adult autistic populations. We followed up 289 autistic youth (mean age 11.6?years) and 203 non-autistic controls (10.7?years) to their ages of 16.9 and 15.8, respectively. The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function scale was used to measure the real-world executive function at late adolescence and young adulthood at follow-up. Potential predictors such as autistic symptoms, inattention or hyperactivity symptoms, peer relationship, emotional symptoms, and parenting styles were assessed in childhood at first enrollment. The results showed that childhood inattention, withdrawn behaviors, social communication difficulties, and child-reported emotion and inattention/hyperactivity may predict real-world lower executive function in late adolescence and young adults with autism. When separating executive function into behavioral and cognitive aspects, we found that oppositional behaviors and peer problems were specific predictors for behavioral regulation and cognitive function, respectively. Our findings suggested that treating common predictors in childhood, such as inattention, may potentially improve real-world executive function in autism during the transition into adulthood.
