Titre : Development of the Observation Schedule for Children with Autism-Anxiety, Behaviour and Parenting (OSCA-ABP): A New Measure of Child and Parenting Behavior for Use with Young Autistic Children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melanie PALMER, Auteur ; Juan PARIS PEREZ, Auteur ; Joanne TARVER, Auteur ; Thomas CAWTHORNE, Auteur ; Margot FRAYNE, Auteur ; Sophie WEBB, Auteur ; Elena BAKER, Auteur ; Isabel YORKE, Auteur ; Dale F. HAY, Auteur ; Vicky SLONIMS, Auteur ; Andrew PICKLES, Auteur ; Emily SIMONOFF, Auteur ; Stephen SCOTT, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1-14 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Child emotional and behavioral problems Measurement Observation Parenting Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Co-occurring emotional and behavioral problems (EBPs) frequently exist in young autistic children. There is evidence based on parental report that parenting interventions reduce child EBPs. More objective measures of child EBPs should supplement parent reported outcomes in trials. We describe the development of a new measure of child and parenting behavior, the Observation Schedule for Children with Autism-Anxiety, Behaviour and Parenting (OSCA-ABP). Participants were 83 parents/carers and their 4-8-year-old autistic children. The measure demonstrated good variance and potential sensitivity to change. Child and parenting behavior were reliably coded among verbal and minimally verbal children. Associations between reports from other informants and observed behavior showed the measure had sufficient convergent validity. The measure has promise to contribute to research and clinical practice in autism mental health beyond objective measurement in trials.

Titre : Factors associated with mental health symptoms among UK autistic children and young people and their parents during the COVID-19 pandemic Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melanie PALMER, Auteur ; Susie CHANDLER, Auteur ; Virginia CARTER LENO, Auteur ; Farah MGAIETH, Auteur ; Isabel YORKE, Auteur ; Matthew HOLLOCKS, Auteur ; Andrew PICKLES, Auteur ; Vicky SLONIMS, Auteur ; Stephen SCOTT, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur ; Emily SIMONOFF, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2098-2111 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism children and young people COVID-19 pandemic mental health parents Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The current study explored the role of pre-existing and pandemic-time child, family or environmental factors in the presentation of mental health symptoms of autistic youth and their parents during the pandemic. Participants were parents/carers of autistic children (Autism Spectrum Treatment and Resilience Cohort, N=67, Mage = 9?years) and adolescents (QUEST cohort, N=112, Mage = 17?years). Parents completed an online survey that asked about child and parental mental health, infection experience, and changes to education arrangements, family life, housing and finances during the pandemic. Pre-existing measures of mental health, autism and adaptive functioning were also utilised. More engagement and enjoyment in education provision and going outside was associated with better child and parental mental health. In multivariate multiple linear regression models, more pre-existing attention deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms were associated with more behavioural/attention deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms during the pandemic in the pre-adolescent cohort, and with greater emotional symptoms in the adolescent cohort. More pre-existing parental mental health problems were associated with more parental mental health symptoms during the pandemic in both cohorts. Knowledge of pre-existing mental health and pandemic-related stressors may help care planning. Encouraging engagement and enjoyment in education and promoting physical exercise are key intervention targets. Ensuring access to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder medication and support is important, especially if this is managed jointly across school and home.Lay abstractWhat is already known about the topic: The COVID-19 pandemic and the associated restrictions impacted all of society. There is emerging evidence showing a range of impacts on autistic children and young people and their families. Further research that looks at how individuals coped during the pandemic while considering how they were doing before the pandemic is needed.What this paper adds: This article explores whether how well autistic youth were doing before the pandemic influenced how they coped during the pandemic. It also looked at how well their parents were doing during the pandemic and whether any pre-pandemic factors influenced how they coped. Samples of both primary-school-aged autistic children and autistic teenagers and their parents were surveyed to answer these questions. More engagement and enjoyment in education provision during the pandemic and getting outside more were linked with better child and parental mental health during the pandemic. More attention deficit hyperactivity disorder before the pandemic was linked with more attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and behavioural problems during the pandemic in primary-school-aged autistic children, and more emotional problems during the pandemic in autistic teenagers. Parents with more mental health problems during the pandemic had more mental health problems before the pandemic.Implications for practice, research or policy: Encouraging engagement and enjoyment in education and promoting physical exercise are key intervention targets. Ensuring access to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder medication and support is important, especially if this is managed jointly across school and home.

Titre : Parent, Teacher and Observational Reports of Emotional and Behavioral Problems in Young Autistic Children Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melanie PALMER, Auteur ; Joanne TARVER, Auteur ; Virginia CARTER LENO, Auteur ; Juan PARIS PEREZ, Auteur ; Margot FRAYNE, Auteur ; Vicky SLONIMS, Auteur ; Andrew PICKLES, Auteur ; Stephen SCOTT, Auteur ; Tony CHARMAN, Auteur ; Emily SIMONOFF, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.296-309 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Emotional and behavioral problems (EBPs) frequently occur in young autistic children. Discrepancies between parents and other informants are common but can lead to uncertainty in formulation, diagnosis and care planning. This study aimed to explore child and informant characteristics are associated with reported child EBPs across settings. Participants were 83 4 “8-year-old autistic children and their parents and teachers in the Autism Spectrum Treatment and Resilience (ASTAR) study. Questionnaires of child EBPs were completed by parents and teachers, and self-reported parenting stress and wellbeing measures were obtained. An observation of parent “child/researcher-child interaction was also completed. Parents reported more EBPs than teachers and parent-teacher agreement was low, particularly for emotional problems. Greater parenting stress and being verbal was associated with more parent- but not teacher-reported EBPs. More observed behaviors that challenge were displayed by minimally verbal children. More parenting stress could be associated with the presence of more EBPs in the home; alternatively, parenting stress may confound reports. It is essential for assessments of EBPs in autistic children to take a multi-informant approach. Better understanding of the associations between informant characteristics and informant discrepancies of EBPs is needed.
