Examining the psychometric properties of the childhood adversity and social stress questionnaire, self-report (CASSQ-SR) in emerging adults with varied autistic traits / Charlotte I. STEWARDSON in Research in Autism, 130 (February 2026)  

Public ISBD [article]  inResearch in Autism > 130 (February 2026) . - p.202780 Titre : Examining the psychometric properties of the childhood adversity and social stress questionnaire, self-report (CASSQ-SR) in emerging adults with varied autistic traits Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Charlotte I. STEWARDSON, Auteur ; Kate RHO, Auteur ; Anat ZAIDMAN-ZAIT, Auteur ; Daniela J. PALOMBO, Auteur ; Connor M. KERNS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.202780 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Neurodiversity  Autistic traits  ADHD traits  Trauma  Adversity  Assessment  Emerging adults Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Neurodivergent individuals (i.e., those with autistic and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder [ADHD] traits) are at increased risk for stressful experiences (SE) and traumatic stress symptoms (TSS), yet traditional measures may not capture stressors and symptoms particularly relevant to this population. We evaluated the Childhood Adversity and Social Stress Questionnaire–Self Report (CASSQ-SR), a measure designed to assess traditional and autism-nominated SE and associated TSS in a community sample with varying levels of autistic traits (AT). Method 706 participants, aged 18–25 years, completed the CASSQ-SR as well as measures of AT, ADHD traits, and psychological distress. We examined psychometric properties of the CASSQ-SR SE and TSS subscales, frequency, timing, and impact of SE, and associations between AT, ADHD traits, and different SE types. Results The CASSQ-SR SE subscale demonstrated convergent and incremental validity; the TSS subscale demonstrated convergent and discriminant validity, and good fit to a four-factor PTSD model. Participants reported a broad range of SE, including stress arising from incongruities between autistic processing and the environment (e.g., social confusion, sensory distress) and varied forms of social exclusion (e.g., bullying, stigma). Standard adversities (e.g., abuse, neglect) were associated with ADHD traits, autistic incongruity SE linked to AT, and social exclusion SE independently associated with AT and ADHD traits. Conclusions Findings support the validity of the CASSQ-SR in assessing SE and TSS in emerging adults with varying AT levels and underscore the importance of considering different forms of neurodivergence in SE and TSS assessment.

Participation in Daily Activities of Young Adults with High Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder / Mary MCCOLLUM in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-3 (March 2016)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 46-3 (March 2016) . - p.987-997 Titre : Participation in Daily Activities of Young Adults with High Functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Mary MCCOLLUM, Auteur ; Patti LAVESSER, Auteur ; Christine BERG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.987-997 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  Participation  Activity card sort  Young adults  Emerging adults  Engagement  Activity involvement  Transition age Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Young adults with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD) struggle to assume adult roles. This research assessed the feasibility of using the Adolescent and Young Adult Activity Card Sort (AYA-ACS) with emerging adults with high functioning ASD. Two phases were utilized during this research: (1) comparing the activity participation reported by emerging adults with an ASD and that reported by their caring adult; (2) examining the barriers to participation reported. Preliminary results demonstrate that the AYA-ACS appears to be a reliable and valid method of identifying emerging adults’ participation strengths as well as personal and environmental challenges in a variety of age-appropriate activities. The AYA-ACS could assist service providers by providing an understanding of the challenges to participation faced by this population and aid in developing client centered interventions.

The Stepped Transition in Education Program for Students with ASD (STEPS) applies cognitive-behavioral principles to help young adults with ASD improve their adjustment to postsecondary education. We aimed to determine if STEPS had an effect on anxiety and depression. Treatment-seeking adults with ASD (n = 32; Mage = 19.74) were randomized to STEPS or transition as usual (TAU; i.e., waitlist control group). STEPS participants evinced significantly greater declines in depressive symptoms from pre-treatment to post-treatment compared to the waitlist. Anxiety symptoms did not significantly change. Results suggest that transition support for young people with ASD may improve mental health.

Social Connectedness and Loneliness Mediate the Association Between Autistic Traits and Internalizing Symptoms Among Young Adults / Lauren VanderBroek STICE in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49-3 (March 2019)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 49-3 (March 2019) . - p.1096-1110 Titre : Social Connectedness and Loneliness Mediate the Association Between Autistic Traits and Internalizing Symptoms Among Young Adults Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lauren VanderBroek STICE, Auteur ; Justin A. LAVNER, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1096-1110 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Broader autism phenotype  Emerging adults  Friendship  Loneliness  Mental health Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adults with autism and subclinical autistic traits report greater internalizing problems than their peers, but the psychological processes underlying these associations are not well understood. The current study used structural equation modeling to examine whether social experiences (social connectedness and loneliness) mediate the link between autistic traits and internalizing symptoms among 821 college students. Those with higher total Broader Autism Phenotype Questionnaire (BAPQ) scores reported lower social connectedness, which related to greater loneliness, and, in turn, greater anxious and depressive symptoms. Relations with specific BAPQ subscales were also examined. Results indicate that, among young adults, stronger subclinical autistic traits relate to greater mental health and social difficulties and point to the important role of social experiences in mental health adjustment.

Exploring trauma exposure and post-traumatic stress in university students of different identity statuses in Lithuania and Japan / Inga TRUSKAUSKAITE ; Kazumi SUGIMURA ; Kazuaki ABE ; Shogo HIHARA ; Yutaka HARAMAKI ; Lina JOVARAUSKAITE ; Yuka KAMITE ; Evaldas KAZLAUSKAS in Development and Psychopathology, 37-1 (February 2025)

It is also a time of excessive stress and risk for mental health problems. Different identity statuses relate to different mental health outcomes. Yet, little research has addressed how identity status is interlinked with trauma exposure and post-traumatic stress reactions, especially in multicultural contexts. The current study aimed to explore whether different traumatic experiences are related to the current identity status of university students aged between 18 and 29 years and investigate to what extent trauma-exposed emerging adults of different identity statuses report symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and complex PTSD (CPTSD). In total, 2237 university students from Lithuania (n = 791) and Japan (n = 1345) participated in the current study. Identity profiles were revealed by using the Latent Class Analysis approach. Lithuania and Japan were comparable in terms of identity profiles and structure of PTSD/CPTSD. Trauma-exposed emerging adults reported a higher probability of being in troubled diffusion identity status; students in achievement identity status had a lower probability of CPTSD and lower rates of symptoms of disturbances in self-organization. The diffused identity of emerging adults from Lithuania and Japan is associated with trauma exposure, and positive identity is linked with fewer CPTSD reactions.
