Titre : Anxiety relates to classroom executive function problems in students with ASD, but not ADHD Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mary F. S. DIECKHAUS, Auteur ; Kristina K. HARDY, Auteur ; Laura GUTERMUTH ANTHONY, Auteur ; Alyssa VERBALIS, Auteur ; Lauren KENWORTHY, Auteur ; Cara E. PUGLIESE, Auteur Article en page(s) : 101739 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder Anxiety Executive function Flexibility Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Anxiety occurs at elevated rates in developmental disorders and has been linked to executive functioning (EF) deficits. EF is strongly related to academic outcomes, but the relationship between anxiety and EF in the classroom has not been examined. Method We explored this relationship in two neurodevelopmental disorders, autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), in order to evaluate the specificity of associations between parent-reported anxiety and teacher-reported EF deficits in the classroom setting. Results Greater anxiety was associated with more classroom EF-related problems in the ASD group, but not in the ADHD group. Item-level analysis of classroom EF problems in the ASD group revealed associations between anxiety and difficulties with task initiation, attention, and completion. Anxiety was not related to total or item-level teacher-reported EF problems in the ADHD group. Conclusion Further investigation into disorder-specific mechanisms that lead to the manifestation of anxiety symptoms may pave the way for more effective treatment and favorable academic outcome. Anxiety is related to poor EF in the classroom for students with ASD, which has implications for treating anxiety to promote positive academic outcomes and incorporating EF supports and training into treatment models for anxiety. The lack of association between anxiety and EF for students with ADHD was unexpected and warrants further exploration.

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.
