Titre : Are there more bowel symptoms in children with autism compared to normal children and children with other developmental and neurological disorders?: A case control study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rachael A. SMITH, Auteur ; H. FARNWORTH, Auteur ; B. WRIGHT, Auteur ; Victoria ALLGAR, Auteur Année de publication : 2009 Article en page(s) : p.343-355 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism bowel-disorders faddiness Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There is considerable controversy as to whether there is an association between bowel disorders and autism. Using a bowel symptom questionnaire we compared 51 children with autism spectrum disorder with control groups of 35 children from special school and 112 from mainstream school. There was a significant difference in the reporting of certain bowel symptoms (constipation, diarrhoea, flatulence) and food faddiness between the autism group and the mainstream school control group. There was no significant difference between the autism group and children in the special schools except for faddiness, which is an autism specific symptom and not a bowel symptom. This study confirms previously reported findings of an increase in bowel symptoms in children with autism. It would appear, however, that this is not specifically associated with autism as bowel symptoms were reported in similar frequency to a comparison group of children with other developmental and neurological disorders.

Treatment included instruction and therapeutic activities targeting social skills, face-emotion recognition skills, interest expansion, and interpretation of non-literal language skills. A behavioral program was instituted to foster skills acquisition and reduce ASD symptoms and problem behaviors. Feasibility was supported in high levels of fidelity and satisfaction. Significant improvements were found for the children’s non-literal language skills and parent ratings of target social and communicative skills, broader social performance, and ASD symptoms. Secondary staff ratings corroborated parent ratings. Results suggest that the treatment, when administered by a community agency, was feasible and yielded positive outcomes similar to prior randomized clinical trials (RCTs).

Titre : Comparison of Adaptive Behavior Measures for Children with HFASDs Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Christopher LOPATA, Auteur ; Rachael A. SMITH, Auteur ; Martin A. VOLKER, Auteur ; Marcus L. THOMEER, Auteur ; Gloria K. LEE, Auteur ; Christin A. MCDONALD, Auteur Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : 10 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adaptive behavior rating scales are frequently used to gather information on the adaptive functioning of children with high-functioning autism spectrum disorders (HFASDs), yet little is known about the extent to which these measures yield comparable results. This study was conducted to (a) document the parent-rated VABS-II, BASC-2, and ABAS-II adaptive behavior profiles of 6- to 11-year-olds with HFASDs (including relative strengths and weaknesses); (b) examine the extent to which these measures yielded similar scores on comparable scales; and (c) assess potential discrepancies between cognitive ability and adaptive behavior across the measures. All three adaptive measures revealed significant deficits overall for the sample, with the VABS-II and ABAS-II indicating relative weaknesses in social skills and strengths in academic-related skills. Cross-measure comparisons indicated significant differences in the absolute magnitude of scores. In general, the VABS-II yielded significantly higher scores than the BASC-2 and ABAS-II. However, the VABS-II and ABAS-II yielded scores that did not significantly differ for adaptive social skills which is a critical area to assess for children with HFASDs. Results also indicated significant discrepancies between the children’s average IQ score and their scores on the adaptive domains and composites of the three adaptive measures.

Titre : Early Development Of Boys With Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Rachael A. SMITH, Auteur ; J. R. SIBERT, Auteur ; P. S. HARPER, Auteur Année de publication : 1990 Article en page(s) : p.519-527 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Développement précoce d'une myopathie de Duchenne
Trente-trois garçons avec myopathie de Duchenne (DMD) et un âge moyen de troisans quatre mois ont été examinés aux Echelles de Développement de Griffiths, aux Echelles de Langage de Reynell et à la British Picture Vocabulary Scales à six mois d'intervalle sur une période d'un an. Les garçons présentaient un retard de développement particulièrement marqué pour la locomotion et le langage. Les quotients de locomotion se détérioraient en fontion du temps mais pas les autres quotients. L'intelligence maternelle, l'environnement à la maison et la classe sociale avaient peu d'effets sur l'étiologie du retard de développement et les problèmes comportementaux observés chez les jeunes gaçons avec DMD peuvent être secondaires à ce retard.Permalink : https://www.cra-rhone-alpes.org/cid/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=134

Following 12 sessions of MR over 6 weeks (M = 15.87 hr per child), emotion recognition and ability to display emotion were rated to be significantly higher than pretest. Significant reductions were found on ratings of autism-associated symptoms on a standardized rating scale completed by parents. Assessment of feasibility indicated high levels of treatment fidelity and high levels of parent- and child-reported satisfaction. Effect size estimates were medium to large for scales on which significant changes were observed. Implications for more controlled studies are proposed.
