Changes in clinical presentation of children with autistic disorder, at an autism clinic in Taiwan from 1987 to 1995 / Wen-Che TSAI in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 7-12 (December 2013)
[article]
Titre : Changes in clinical presentation of children with autistic disorder, at an autism clinic in Taiwan from 1987 to 1995 Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Wen-Che TSAI, Auteur ; Wei-Tsuen SOONG, Auteur ; Wei-Chu CHIE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1501-1508 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic disorder Child mental health Taiwan Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Autistic disorder was originally viewed as a distinct, rare, and severe childhood mental disorder that caused life-long disability. However, since the late 1990s autistic disorder was found to have a high prevalence rate and to affect children on a spectrum from mild to severe dysfunction. The purpose of this retrospective, descriptive study was to examine changes in the characteristics of patients with autistic disorder in Taiwan from 1987 to 1995. To that end, we examined the characteristics, age at diagnosis, symptoms, and developmental condition of affected children and the educational background of their parents who visited an autism clinic at the children's mental health center of a medical center in Taipei. This clinic was the first, largest, and for many years the only autistic disorder clinic in Taiwan. Across the 9-year study period, we observed trends in decreasing age at first visit, increasing age at assessment, rising maternal educational level, lessening autistic disorder symptomatology, and increasing developmental quotients. These changes may have been due to improved diagnostic criteria, government policy, and healthcare professionals’ and parents’ increased awareness of autistic disorder. Clinical implications and related policy making toward these changes are proposed.
