Titre : Assessment of Sesame Street online autism resources: Impacts on parental implicit and explicit attitudes toward children with autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Cheryl L. DICKTER, Auteur ; Joshua A. BURK, Auteur ; Laura Gutermuth ANTHONY, Auteur ; Hillary A. ROBERTSON, Auteur ; Alyssa VERBALIS, Auteur ; Sydney SEESE, Auteur ; Yetta MYRICK, Auteur ; Bruno J. ANTHONY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.114-124 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum disorders social cognition and social behavior Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current study sought to characterize implicit bias toward children with autism and examine whether viewing educational materials about autism would change attitudes toward children with autism. A website developed by Sesame Street containing information about autism and resources for families was distributed to parents of children with autism (n?=?473) and parents of children without autism (n?=?707). Pre- and post-test measures of implicit bias toward children with autism; explicit attitudes and knowledge about autism; and parenting confidence, strain, and stigma were completed before and after the website was presented. Results indicated that parents of children with autism showed less implicit bias compared with those of non-autistic children during the pre-test, but the groups did not differ at the post-test. Parents without autistic children and those with more negative explicit attitudes showed a greater reduction in implicit bias from the pre- to the post-test. In addition, for parents of children with autism, a more positive change in explicit attitudes and increased knowledge from the pre- to the post-test was associated with more empowerment at the post-test. Together, our findings suggest that the online educational resources can reduce implicit bias against children with autism and help mitigate some of the psychological issues associated with parenting children with autism.

Titre : Interests in high-functioning autism are more intense, interfering, and idiosyncratic than those in neurotypical development Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Laura Gutermuth ANTHONY, Auteur ; Lauren E. KENWORTHY, Auteur ; Benjamin E. YERYS, Auteur ; Kathryn F. JANKOWSKI, Auteur ; Joette D. JAMES, Auteur ; Madeline B. HARMS, Auteur ; Alex MARTIN, Auteur ; Gregory L. WALLACE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.643-652 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although circumscribed interests are pathognomonic with autism, much about these interests remains unknown. Using the Interests Scale (IS), this study compares interests between 76 neurotypical (NT) individuals and 109 individuals with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (HF-ASD) matched groupwise on age, IQ, and gender ratio. Participants and their parents/caregivers completed diagnostic measures (the Autism Diagnostic Interview—Revised and the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule; HF-ASD only), cognitive tests (Wechsler IQ Scales), and questionnaires (the Repetitive Behavior Scale—Revised, the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, and the Social Responsiveness Scale), in addition to the IS. Consistent with previous research, HF-ASD and NT individuals did not differ in number of interest areas, but the types of interests and intensity of those interests differed considerably. Using only the IS intensity score, 81% of individuals were correctly classified (NT or HF-ASD) in a logistic regression analysis. Among individuals with HF-ASD, Interests Scale scores were significantly related to Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, Repetitive Behavior Scale—Revised, and Social Responsiveness Scale scores, but they were not related to Autism Diagnostic Interview—Revised scores, IQ, gender, age, or psychotropic medication use. The type and intensity, but not the number, of interests distinguish high-functioning individuals with ASD from NT individuals.

Titre : Randomized controlled effectiveness trial of executive function intervention for children on the autism spectrum Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lauren E.

WILLS, Auteur ; Caroline LUONG-TRAN, Auteur ; Monica Adler WERNER, Auteur ; Katie C. ALEXANDER, Auteur ; John STRANG, Auteur ; Elgiz BAL, Auteur ; Jennifer L. SOKOLOFF, Auteur ; Gregory L. WALLACE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.374-383 Mots-clés : Autism executive function RRBI intervention CBT Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Unstuck and On Target (UOT) is an executive function (EF) intervention for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) targeting insistence on sameness, flexibility, goal-setting, and planning through a cognitive-behavioral program of self-regulatory scripts, guided/faded practice, and visual/verbal cueing. UOT is contextually-based because it is implemented in school and at home, the contexts in which a child uses EF skills. Methods To evaluate the effectiveness of UOT compared with a social skills intervention (SS), 3rd–5th graders with ASD (mean IQ = 108; UOT n = 47; SS n = 20) received interventions delivered by school staff in small group sessions. Students were matched for gender, age, race, IQ, ASD symptomotolgy, medication status, and parents' education. Interventions were matched for ‘dose’ of intervention and training. Measures of pre–post change included classroom observations, parent/teacher report, and direct child measures of problem-solving, EF, and social skills. Schools were randomized and evaluators, but not parents or teachers, were blinded to intervention type. Results Interventions were administered with high fidelity. Children in both groups improved with intervention, but mean change scores from pre- to postintervention indicated significantly greater improvements for UOT than SS groups in: problem-solving, flexibility, and planning/organizing. Also, classroom observations revealed that participants in UOT made greater improvements than SS participants in their ability to follow rules, make transitions, and be flexible. Children in both groups made equivalent improvements in social skills. Conclusions These data support the effectiveness of the first contextually-based EF intervention for children with ASD. UOT improved classroom behavior, flexibility, and problem-solving in children with ASD. Individuals with variable background/training in ASD successfully implemented UOT in mainstream educational settings.
