Titre : Cognitive behavioral treatment of insomnia in school-aged children with autism spectrum disorder: A pilot feasibility study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Christina S. MCCRAE, Auteur ; Wai Sze CHAN, Auteur ; Ashley F. CURTIS, Auteur ; Chelsea B. DEROCHE, Auteur ; Melissa MUNOZ, Auteur ; Stephanie TAKAMATSU, Auteur ; Julie E. MUCKERMAN, Auteur ; Nicole TAKAHASHI, Auteur ; Dillon MCCANN, Auteur ; Kevin MCGOVNEY, Auteur ; Pradeep SAHOTA, Auteur ; Micah O MAZUREK, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.167-176 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism behavior child cognitive behavioral therapy insomnia parent Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Insomnia is common in autism and associated with challenging behavior and worse parent sleep. Cognitive behavioral treatment for childhood insomnia (CBT-CI) is efficacious in typically developing children, but not yet tested in school-aged children with autism. This single arm pilot tested 8-session CBT-CI in 17 children with autism and insomnia (M age = 8.76 years, SD = 1.99) and their parent(s) (M age = 39.50 years, SD = 4.83). Treatment integrity was assessed for each session [delivery (by therapist), receipt (participant understanding), and enactment (home practice)]. Children and parents wore actigraphs and completed electronic diaries for 2-weeks to obtain objective and subjective sleep onset latency (SOL), total sleep/wake times (TST/TWT), and sleep efficiency (SE) at pre/post/1-month follow-up. Parents also completed the Aberrant Behavior Checklist [irritability, lethargy, stereotypy, hyperactivity, inappropriate speech (e.g., excessive/repetitive, loud self-talk)] at pre/post/1-month. Fifteen children completed all sessions. Average integrity scores were high [90%-delivery/receipt, 87.5%-enactment]. Parents found CBT-CI helpful, age-appropriate, and autism-friendly. Paired samples t-tests (family-wise error controlled) found CBT-CI improved child sleep (objective SOL-18 min, TWT- 34 min, SE-5%; subjective SOL-29 min, TST-63 min, TWT-45 min, SE-8%), and decreased irritability, lethargy, stereotypy, and hyperactivity. At 1-month, objective TST improved, inappropriate speech decreased, but hyperactivity was no longer decreased. Other gains were maintained. Parent sleep (objective SOL-12 min, TST-35 min, TWT-21 min, SE-4%; subjective SOL-11 min, TWT- 31min, SE-11%) and fatigue also improved. At 1-month, gains were maintained. This pilot shows CBT-CI is a feasible treatment that holds promise for improving child and parent sleep and functioning and suggests a randomized controlled trial in school-aged children with autism is worth conducting. Autism Res 2020, 13: 167-176. (c) 2019 International Society for Autism Research, Wiley Periodicals, Inc. LAY SUMMARY: Insomnia is common in autism and associated with challenging behaviors and poor parent sleep and stress. Cognitive behavioral treatment for childhood insomnia (CBT-CI) has not been tested in school-aged children with autism. This pilot study shows therapists, parents, and children were able to use CBT-CI to improve child and parent sleep, child behavior, and parent fatigue. Parents found CBT-CI helpful, age-appropriate, and autism-friendly. CBT-CI holds promise for treating insomnia in school-aged children with autism and deserves further testing.

The current study examined the structural and convergent validity of the AIM in a large sample of children with ASD. The results of a series of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses yielded a final model with five theoretically and empirically meaningful subdomains: Repetitive Behavior, Atypical Behavior, Communication, Social Reciprocity, and Peer Interaction. The final model showed very good fit both overall and for each of the five factors, indicating excellent structural validity. AIM subdomain scores were significantly correlated with measures of similar constructs across all five domains. The results provide further support for the psychometric properties of the AIM.

Primary care providers lack training and confidence in caring for youth and young adults with autism spectrum disorder. The current study developed and tested an adaptation of the Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes model to train and mentor primary care providers (n = 16) in best-practice care for transition-age youth and young adults with autism spectrum disorder. The Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes Autism Transition program consisted of 12 weekly 1-h sessions connecting primary care providers to an interdisciplinary expert team via multipoint videoconferencing. Sessions included brief didactics, case-based learning, and guided practice. Measures of primary care provider self-efficacy, knowledge, and practice were administered pre- and post-training. Participants demonstrated significant improvements in self-efficacy regarding caring for youth/young adults with autism spectrum disorder and reported high satisfaction and changes in practice as a result of participation. By contrast, no significant improvements in knowledge or perceived barriers were observed. Overall, the results indicate that the model holds promise for improving primary care providers' confidence and interest in working with transition-age youth and young adults with autism spectrum disorder. However, further refinements may be helpful for enhancing scope and impact on practice.

Drs. Carlson, Baker-Ericzén, Butter, and Norris declare that they have no conflicts of interest. Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The Autism Impact Measure (AIM) was designed specifically for treatment-outcome assessment in children with ASD, focusing on treatment-relevant aspects of symptom presentation and efficient detection of short-term improvement. The AIM demonstrated strong reliability and validity in initial psychometric studies. The current study evaluated the AIM's sensitivity to change across well-established treatments. The sample included 471 children with ASD (ages 2-14) participating in one of six treatments. The AIM was administered at baseline and 6-week intervals and a battery of domain-specific concurrent measures was also administered. A longitudinal repeated measures design examined the degree to which: (a) AIM domain scores changed over time in response to treatment and (b) change in AIM domains was associated with change in measures of similar constructs. Results across growth curve models indicated that AIM domains are sensitive to change in symptoms across treatment. Across all models, symptoms decreased over time, with some deceleration in rate of improvement. For all AIM domains except Repetitive Behavior, symptoms improved as a function of treatment group. Correlations of change between AIM and other measures varied across domains (from 0.01-0.43 across measures). This was the first large-scale study to systematically evaluate sensitivity to change in a measure of core ASD symptoms. The results provide support for the AIM's ability to detect short-term improvement across symptom domains and indicate that AIM domains are sensitive to change overall and as a function of different treatment conditions. The brief repeated assessment window also highlights the AIM's utility for detecting improvements across short-term treatments. Autism Res 2020, 13: 1867-1879. © 2020 International Society for Autism Research and Wiley Periodicals LLC LAY SUMMARY: Good measures are important for assessing outcomes in children with autism. However, there are few tools for tracking short-term changes in autism symptoms. This study tested a new measure, the Autism Impact Measure (AIM), in a large group of children with autism. The results showed that the AIM appears to be a valid and accurate tool for measuring autism symptoms. The AIM may be a helpful tool for researchers and clinicians interested in tracking short-term improvements in autism symptoms.
