Asperger Syndrome and Schizophrenia: A Comparative Neuropsychological Study / Maria MARINOPOULOU in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-7 (July 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-7 (July 2016) . - p.2292-2304 Titre : Asperger Syndrome and Schizophrenia: A Comparative Neuropsychological Study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Maria MARINOPOULOU, Auteur ; Tove LUGNEGÅRD, Auteur ; Maria Unenge HALLERBÄCK, Auteur ; Christopher GILLBERG, Auteur ; Eva BILLSTEDT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2292-2304 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger syndrome  Schizophrenia  Neuropsychology  Intellectual functioning  Executive functions Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : There has been an increasing interest in possible connections between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia in the last decade. Neuropsychological comparison studies have, however, been few. The present study examined similarities and differences in intellectual and executive functioning between adults with Asperger syndrome (AS) and adults with schizophrenic psychosis (SP). A group with AS and a group with SP were assessed neuropsychologically with WAIS-III and D-KEFS. Similarities were found between groups, as displayed by an uneven cognitive profile, limitations in working memory, processing speed and some aspects of executive functioning. Full Scale IQ was higher in the AS group. These results add to the current research illuminating similarities and differences between ASD and schizophrenia on a cognitive level.

Asperger syndrome in males over two decades: stability and predictors of diagnosis / Adam HELLES in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 56-6 (June 2015)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 56-6 (June 2015) . - p.711-718 Titre : Asperger syndrome in males over two decades: stability and predictors of diagnosis Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Adam HELLES, Auteur ; Carina I. GILLBERG, Auteur ; Christopher GILLBERG, Auteur ; Eva BILLSTEDT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.711-718 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger syndrome  diagnostic stability  autism spectrum disorder  pervasive developmental disorder  males  longitudinal study Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Objective To examine the diagnostic stability of a childhood diagnosis of Asperger Syndrome (AS) into adulthood in a prospective longitudinal study, and identify the predictors of stability. Methods One hundred males with AS diagnosed in childhood (T0) according to Gillberg's AS criteria, were followed up prospectively into adulthood over an average of 19 years (range 13–26 years). Fifty males (mean age 30 years) participated in this second follow-up (T2) of the cohort. Seventy-six had participated in a previous follow-up (T1) at mean age 22 years (47 participated in both follow-ups). Diagnosis at T2 was assessed using three sets of diagnostic criteria (Gillberg's AS criteria, DSM-IV Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) and DSM-5 Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) criteria) and compared to previous assessments. Background predictors of diagnostic stability were analyzed. General functioning at T2 was assessed and compared to T1. Results There was a decline in the stability of AS diagnosis over time, the rate dropping from 82% at T1 to 44% at T2, when using the Gillberg criteria. There was also a significant decrease in the rate of cases fulfilling any PDD diagnosis according to the DSM-IV, from 91% at T1 to 76% at T2 in the 47 cases followed up twice. Severity of autism spectrum symptoms at T1 was the main predictor of diagnostic stability at T2. Twenty percent of those meeting criteria for a PDD diagnosis according to DSM-IV, did not meet DSM-5 ASD criteria although they had marked difficulties in everyday life. Conclusion Asperger Syndrome, when considered as an ASD/PDD diagnosis, was fairly stable into adulthood, but there was a significant increase over time in cases no longer meeting criteria for an ASD diagnosis according to the DSM-IV, or AS according to the Gillberg criteria. Cases with a stable diagnosis showed significantly more core ASD symptoms in adolescence/young adulthood.

Brief report: Should Asperger syndrome be excluded from the forthcoming DSM-V? / Nils KALAND in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 5-3 (July-September 2011)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 5-3 (July-September 2011) . - p.984-989 Titre : Brief report: Should Asperger syndrome be excluded from the forthcoming DSM-V? Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Nils KALAND, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.984-989 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger syndrome  High-functioning autism  Diagnosis  Differences  DSM-V Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Asperger syndrome (AS) is a pervasive developmental disorder, characterized by social impairments and focused, circumscribed interests and activities in the absence of significant language impairment and cognitive delay. Since its inclusion in the DSM-IV, there has been a dramatic increase in its recognition both in children and adults. Some recent studies suggest that there may be differences between AS and high-functioning autism (HFA) on behavioural, cognitive and neurobiological levels. As the majority of studies so far have generally failed to demonstrate a clear distinction between AS and HFA, some researchers have called for eliminating AS from the forthcoming DSM-V. This paper reports some interesting differences between the conditions on different levels and argues for more experimental studies on AS, modifications of its diagnostic criteria, and for its continued retention in the diagnostic manual.

Estimation of the Intelligence Quotient Using Wechsler Intelligence Scales in Children and Adolescents with Asperger Syndrome / Jessica MERCHAN-NARANJO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 42-1 (January 2012)

We analyzed the validity of Wechsler Intelligence Scale (WIS) short forms for estimating full-scale intelligence quotient (FSIQ) and assessing intelligence profiles in 29 AS patients. Only the Information and Block Design dyad meets the study criteria. No statistically significant differences were found between dyad scores and FSIQ scores ( t (28) = 1.757; p = 0.09). The dyad has a high correlation with FSIQ, good percentage of variance explained ( R 2 = 0.591; p < 0.001), and high consistency with the FSIQ classification ( χ 2 (36) = 45.202; p = 0.14). Short forms with good predictive accuracy may not be accurate in clinical groups with atypical cognitive profiles such as AS patients.

Oral language impairments in developmental disorders characterized by language strengths: A comparison of Asperger syndrome and nonverbal learning disabilities / M.E. STOTHERS in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 6-1 (January-March 2012)

STOTHERS, Auteur ; Janis ORAM CARDY, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.519-534 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Asperger syndrome  Nonverbal learning disabilities  Structural language  Semantics Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Asperger syndrome (AS) and nonverbal learning disabilities (NLD) are developmental disorders in which linguistic ability is reported to be stronger than in disorders from which they must be distinguished for diagnosis. Children and adults with AS and NLD share pragmatic weaknesses, atypical social behaviours, and some cognitive features. To date, potential similarities between these disorders in oral language have not been directly examined in the literature. A review of the available research suggests that adequate structural language is another area of similarity for AS and NLD. However, systematic investigations of phonology, morphology, or syntax were not found; thus, the evidence for largely intact structural language in these disorders is indirect. The review also pointed to a common semantic profile across both disorders, characterized by strong vocabulary breadth in the face of limited depth and organization. These higher-order problems with semantics are proposed to be consistent with theoretical accounts of poor integrative abilities in AS and NLD, and to contribute to the well-documented pragmatic difficulties in these disorders.
