An evaluation of the Cygnet parenting support programme for parents of children with autism spectrum conditions / Lucy STUTTARD in Research in Autism Spectrum Disorders, 23 (March 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism Spectrum Disorders > 23 (March 2016) . - p.166-178 Titre : An evaluation of the Cygnet parenting support programme for parents of children with autism spectrum conditions Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lucy STUTTARD, Auteur ; Bryony BERESFORD, Auteur ; Susan CLARKE, Auteur ; Jennifer BEECHAM, Auteur ; Andy MORRIS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.166-178 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autistic spectrum  Parent training  Child behaviour  Non-randomised controlled trial Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Parents of children on the autistic spectrum often struggle to understand the condition and, related to this, manage their child’s behaviour. Cygnet is a parenting intervention which aims to help parents address these difficulties, consequently improving parenting confidence. It is widely used in the United Kingdom (UK). Despite this, there have been few evaluations. This paper reports a small-scale pragmatic evaluation of Cygnet as it was routinely delivered in two English cities. A non-randomised controlled study of outcomes for parents (and their children) was conducted. Data regarding intervention fidelity and delivery costs were also collected. Parents either attending, or waiting to attend, Cygnet were recruited (intervention group: IG, n = 35; comparator group: CG, n = 32). Parents completed standardised measures of child behaviour and parenting sense of competence pre- and post-intervention, and at three-month follow-up (matched time points for CG). Longer-term outcomes were measured for the IG. IG parents also set specific child behaviour goals. Typically, the programme was delivered as specified by the manual. Attending Cygnet was associated with significant improvements in parenting satisfaction and the specific child behaviour goals. Findings regarding other outcomes were equivocal and further evaluation is required. We conclude that Cygnet is a promising intervention for parents of children with autism in terms of, at least, some outcomes.

Is the dolphin a fish? ERP evidence for the impact of typicality during early visual processing in ultra-rapid semantic categorization in autism spectrum disorder / Ann-Kathrin BECK in Journal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders, 14 (2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Neurodevelopmental Disorders > 14 (2022) Titre : Is the dolphin a fish? ERP evidence for the impact of typicality during early visual processing in ultra-rapid semantic categorization in autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Ann-Kathrin BECK, Auteur ; Daniela CZERNOCHOWSKI, Auteur ; Thomas LACHMANN, Auteur ; Bernardo BARAHONA-CORREA, Auteur ; Joana C. CARMO, Auteur Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Animals  Autism Spectrum Disorder  Cognition  Dolphins  Male  Semantics  Visual Perception  Autistic spectrum  D prime  Eeg  Erp  High functioning  Presentation time Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Neurotypical individuals categorize items even during ultra-rapid presentations (20 ms; see Thorpe et al. Nature 381: 520, 1996). In cognitively able autistic adults, these semantic categorization processes may be impaired and/or may require additional time, specifically for the categorization of atypical compared to typical items. Here, we investigated how typicality structures influence ultra-rapid categorization in cognitively able autistic and neurotypical male adults. METHODS: Images representing typical or atypical exemplars of two different categories (food/animals) were presented for 23.5 vs. 82.3 ms (short/long). We analyzed detection rates, reaction times, and the event-related potential components dN150, N1, P2, N2, and P3 for each group. RESULTS: Behavioral results suggest slower and less correct responses to atypical compared to typical images. This typicality effect was larger for the category with less distinct boundaries (food) and observed in both groups. However, electrophysiological data indicate a different time course of typicality effects, suggesting that neurotypical adults categorize atypical images based on simple features (P2), whereas cognitively able autistic adults categorize later, based on arbitrary features of atypical images (P3). CONCLUSIONS: We found evidence that all three factors under investigation - category, typicality, and presentation time - modulated specific aspects of semantic categorization. Additionally, we observed a qualitatively different pattern in the autistic adults, which suggests that they relied on different cognitive processes to complete the task.

What are the experiences of autistic individuals who engage in multiplayer online gaming? A systematic meta-ethnography / Rebecca BENNETT in Research in Autism, 130 (February 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 130 (February 2026) . - p.202768 Titre : What are the experiences of autistic individuals who engage in multiplayer online gaming? A systematic meta-ethnography Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rebecca BENNETT, Auteur ; Ian C. SMITH, Auteur ; Miriam STURDEE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.202768 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Autistic Spectrum  ASC  ASD  Multiplayer Online Games Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Multiplayer online gaming (MOG) is becoming an increasingly popular form of entertainment and way to interact with others. Within the online gaming community, there is a high proportion of autistic players. The aim of this review is to understand the experiences of autistic individuals who engage in MOG activity. A qualitative systematic review was conducted across five databases: PsychINFO, Medline, CINAHL, ACM Digital Library, and Web of Science. An additional search on Google Scholar was conducted to screen for grey literature. This resulted in 12 studies being identified for inclusion. Studies were synthesised using a meta-ethnographic approach. The review highlighted that MOGs provide opportunities for players to interact in a way that feels less pressured than the face-to-face world. This has positive implications for developing social skills and forming relationships with others. Additionally, players learn a variety of skills that contribute to increased self-esteem and improved psychological wellbeing. It is hoped that the findings from this review could be used clinically to help mental health professionals think about how such activities can benefit autistic individuals and also how they might adapt the way they work to be more suitable for this population.
