Age of Initial Identification of Autism Spectrum Disorder in a Diverse Urban Sample / Jennifer HALL-LANDE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 51-3 (March 2021)
[article]
Titre : Age of Initial Identification of Autism Spectrum Disorder in a Diverse Urban Sample Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jennifer HALL-LANDE, Auteur ; Amy N. ESLER, Auteur ; Amy HEWITT, Auteur ; Amy L. GUNTY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.798-803 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Age of initial identification Autism prevalence Autism spectrum disorder Developmental delays Diverse communities Early diagnosis Somali Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This paper examines age of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) identification and related factors in a diverse urban sample, focusing on ASD identification in the East African Somali community. The overall average age of initial ASD identification was 4.8 years. Somali children received an initial clinical diagnosis of Autistic Disorder later than White children, and Somali children diagnosed with ASD born outside of Minnesota (MN) received their first comprehensive evaluation later than Somali children diagnosed with ASD born in MN. Most children had noted developmental concerns before age 3, with no significant racial or ethnic differences in those concerns. The current study contributes to a limited number of studies on early ASD identification in culturally and linguistically diverse populations.

Titre : Sex differences in scores on standardized measures of autism symptoms: a multisite integrative data analysis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Aaron J. KAAT, Auteur ; Amy M. SHUI, Auteur ; Sheila S. GHODS, Auteur ; Cristan A. FARMER, Auteur ; Amy N. ESLER, Auteur ; Audrey THURM, Auteur ; Stelios GEORGIADES, Auteur ; Stephen M. KANNE, Auteur ; Catherine LORD, Auteur ; Young Shin KIM, Auteur ; Somer L. BISHOP, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.97-106 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Sex differences autism spectrum disorder restricted and repetitive behavior social impairment Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Concerns have been raised that scores on standard measures of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) symptoms may differ as a function of sex. However, these findings are hindered by small female samples studied thus far. The current study evaluated if, after accounting for age, IQ, and language level, sex affects ASD severity estimates from diagnostic measures among children with ASD. METHODS: Data were obtained from eight sources comprising 27 sites. Linear mixed-effects models, including a random effect for site, were fit for 10 outcomes (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule [ADOS] domain-level calibrated severity scores, Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised [ADI-R] raw scores by age-based algorithm, and raw scores from the two indices on the Social Responsiveness Scale [SRS]). Sex was added to the models after controlling for age, NVIQ, and an indicator for language level. RESULTS: Sex significantly improved model fit for half of the outcomes, but least square mean differences were generally negligible (effect sizes [ES] < 0.20), increasing to small to moderate in adolescence (ES < 0.40). Boys received more severe RRB scores than girls on both the ADOS and ADI-R (age 4 + algorithm), and girls received more severe scores than boys on both SRS indices, which emerged in adolescence. CONCLUSIONS: This study combined several available databases to create the largest sample of girls with ASD diagnoses. We found minimal differences due to sex beyond other known influences on ASD severity indicators. This may suggest that, among children who ultimately receive a clinical ASD diagnosis, severity estimates do not systematically differ to such an extent that sex-specific scoring procedures would be necessary. However, given the limitations inherent in clinically ascertained samples, future research must address questions about systematic sex differences among children or adults who do not receive clinical diagnoses of ASD. Moreover, while the current study helps resolve questions about widely used diagnostic instruments, we could not address sex differences in phenotypic aspects outside of these scores.
