A promising approach to anxiety intervention has emerged from cognitive studies of attention bias to threat. To investigate the utility of this intervention in WS, this study examined attention bias to happy and angry faces in individuals with WS (N = 46). Results showed a significant difference in attention bias patterns as a function of IQ and anxiety. Individuals with higher IQ or higher anxiety showed a significant bias toward angry, but not happy faces, whereas individuals with lower IQ or lower anxiety showed the opposite pattern. These results suggest that attention bias interventions to modify a threat bias may be most effectively targeted to anxious individuals with WS with relatively high IQ.

Characteristics of toddlers with early versus later diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder / Lauren E. MILLER in Autism, 25-2 (February 2021)

Data  reported in this manuscript did not incur any royalties. Lauren Miller and Yael Dai  declare that they have no conflicts of interest. Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The emergence of autism symptoms in childhood is variable, with some children showing signs of autism spectrum disorder very early, and others not being identified until much later. Although most children in the United States are not diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder until preschool, at ages 3-4?years, symptoms can be reliably detected at 14?months. It is less certain how those toddlers diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder earlier versus later differ from each other clinically. This study revealed that young children diagnosed later in development, between ages 25 and 41?months, are more impaired on measures of cognitive, adaptive, and social functioning than their counterparts who are diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder earlier. All young children with autism spectrum disorder are impaired in communication to a similar degree, however. Universal autism screening at 18?months may identify toddlers with autism spectrum disorder when their symptoms are milder and more readily amenable to intervention. Repeated screening at 24?months is supported to detect those children missed by an earlier screening, who may be more severely affected. Caregivers should be encouraged to pursue diagnostic evaluation at an initial positive screening result to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment.

Characterizing Accommodations by Parents of Young Children with Autism: A Mixed Methods Analysis / Yael G. DAI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 53-9 (September 2023)

DAI, Auteur ; Alice S. CARTER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3380-3393 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Symptoms of autism influence families' participation in daily activities, but few studies have broadly explored the types of accommodations caregivers make to their family?s routines after their child is diagnosed with autism. The current study used a mixed-methods approach to characterize the rate and types of accommodations made by 171 families and the child and family characteristics that predicted accommodations. Most families (91%) endorsed making accommodations in the past year. Lower income, older child age, marginalized racial/ethnic identity, and higher levels of child problem behavior predicted accommodations in a greater number of domains. Thematic analysis illuminated the types of accommodations caregivers made and their motivation for making these lifestyle adjustments. Findings have important implications for parent-mediated interventions and policy.

Comparison of parent report and direct assessment of child skills in toddlers / Lauren E. MILLER in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 41-42 (September 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 41-42 (September 2017) . - p.57-65 Titre : Comparison of parent report and direct assessment of child skills in toddlers Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Lauren E.

FEIN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.57-65 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Parent report  Direct assessment  Toddlers  Child ability  Autism spectrum disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There are unique challenges associated with measuring development in early childhood. Two primary sources of information are used: parent report and direct assessment. Each approach has strengths and weaknesses, particularly when used to identify and diagnose developmental delays. The present study aimed to evaluate consistency between parent report and direct assessment of child skills in toddlers with and without Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) across receptive language, expressive language, and fine motor domains. Method 109 children were evaluated at an average age of two years; data on child skills were collected via parent report and direct assessment. Children were classified into three groups (i.e., ASD, Other Developmental Disorder, or Typical Development) based on DSM-IV-TR diagnosis. Mixed design ANOVAs, with data source as a within subjects factor and diagnostic group as a between subjects factor, were used to assess agreement. Chi square tests of agreement were then used to examine correspondence at the item level. Results Results suggested that parent report of language and fine motor skills did not significantly differ from direct assessment, and this finding held across diagnostic groups. Item level analyses revealed that, in most cases of significant disagreement, parents reported a skill as present, but it was not seen on direct testing. Conclusions Results indicate that parents are generally reliable reporters of child language and fine motor abilities in toddlerhood, even when their children have developmental disorders such as ASD. However, the fullest picture may be obtained by using both parent report and direct assessment.

Despite the comparable rate of ASD in Black and White children, the M-CHAT-R/F was validated on a primarily White, Non-Hispanic sample. Few studies have assessed whether the screener performs adequately with racial minorities. This study compared the M-CHAT-R/F Positive Predictive Value (PPV), for ASD, and for any developmental condition, in Black and White children. We also examined M-CHAT-R/F item-level PPV by race. The PPVs for ASD and other developmental disorders were similar in both racial groups for total score and individual items. Therefore, our findings support the use of the M-CHAT-R/F with Black and White children.
