Titre : Anger dysregulation and non-suicidal self-injury during adolescence: A test of directionality Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Johannes LARSSON, Auteur ; Lauree C. TILTON-WEAVER, Auteur ; Xiang ZHAO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1596-1605 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adolescent anger dysregulation directionality non-suicidal self-injury Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) has been tied to several forms of emotional and behavioral dysregulation in adolescence, with less attention paid to regulation of anger. Most assume that anger dysregulation leads to engagement in NSSI, rather than the reverse. However, it is plausible that NSSI compromises adolescents' abilities to regulate their emotions, including anger, because it may reduce the development of alternative regulatory strategies and intensify negative emotions by reducing tolerance of distress. Using three waves of data from a sample of adolescents in 17 Swedish schools (n = 1,304 Mage = 13.68, SDage = .67; 89% of Swedish origin; 58% girls), we examined the directionality of ties between NSSI and three forms of anger dysregulation: dysregulated expressions of anger, anger suppression, and low anger reflection. We also looked for differences in magnitude of paths and gender differences. Random-intercept cross-lagged panel models showed that NSSI predicted changes in all forms of anger dysregulation but found no support for the opposite direction. Gender differences were not evident. Results challenge directionality assumptions and support suggestions that adolescents' anger regulation degrades when they self-injure.

GABRIELSEN, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.202725 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Self-harm Non-suicidal self-injury Deliberate self-harm Female Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Introduction Recognition of autism in females has been growing, with concerns that NSSI is more common in this group. Listening to autistic women who self-harm can expand understanding and improve support. Methods Adult autistic females and those with a clinical best estimate of autism completed a developmental screener, the Suicide Behavior Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R), and follow-up interviews prompting collective case study analysis of 23 transcriptions (n = 13 autism; n = 10 clinical best estimate of autism). Insider and external autism experts reviewed analyses. Results Eighteen of the 23 participants self-injured. We found younger ages of onset for self-injury (as early as 8 years old) than previously reported in other studies. Powerlessness, self-punishment for social mistakes, and difficulty displaying the “right” emotions were common themes related to reasons why autistic women self-injured. Experiences of NSSI aligned with literature linking it to the need for emotional regulation and focus when overwhelmed. Cutting was sometimes associated with suicidal thoughts/behaviors. Our inside experts were people with lived experience of autism, and they reviewed the study’s findings. Conclusion Participants reported that parents, therapists, and clergy who listened without judgment and validated social stressors were helpful. Dismissive reactions, assumptions regarding motivations, and hospitalization were described as not helpful. Overall, participants expressed a desire for greater self-control over quality of life.

Titre : Untended wounds: Non-suicidal self-injury in adults with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Brenna B. MADDOX, Auteur ; Andrea TRUBANOVA, Auteur ; Susan W. WHITE, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.412-422 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : adults autism spectrum disorders depression emotion dysregulation non-suicidal self-injury Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Recent studies have examined non-suicidal self-injury in community and clinical samples, but there is no published research on non-suicidal self-injury in individuals with autism spectrum disorder. This lack of research is surprising, since individuals with autism spectrum disorder have high rates of risk factors for non-suicidal self-injury, including depression and poor emotion regulation skills. Using an online survey, we examined non-suicidal self-injury methods, frequency, severity, functions, and initial motivations in adults with autism spectrum disorder (n = 42). We also compared their non-suicidal self-injury characteristics to those of a gender-matched group of adults without autism spectrum disorder (n = 42). Of the participants with autism spectrum disorder, 50% reported a history of non-suicidal self-injury. This proportion is higher than non-suicidal self-injury rates previously reported for college students, adult community samples, and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder, which suggests that adults with autism spectrum disorder have increased risk for engaging in non-suicidal self-injury. Women with autism spectrum disorder were significantly more likely to endorse non-suicidal self-injury, relative to men with autism spectrum disorder. A history of non-suicidal self-injury was not related to current depression or emotion dysregulation for the participants with autism spectrum disorder. Non-suicidal self-injury characteristics among the adults with autism spectrum disorder were similar to non-suicidal self-injury in adults without autism spectrum disorder. These preliminary findings highlight the need for increased awareness and further research about non-suicidal self-injury within autism spectrum disorder.

Titre : ‘Picking the best of a bad bunch’: Exploring stakeholder perspectives of self-harm assessment tools for autistic adults Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Victoria NEWELL, Auteur ; Caroline RICHARDS, Auteur ; Sarah A. CASSIDY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2791-2803 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism measurement self-harm non-suicidal self-injury stakeholders Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Autistic people are at greater risk of self-harm than non-autistic people, yet no tools exist specifically for assessing self-harm in this population. We therefore conducted two focus groups with autistic adults (n = 5) and professionals (n = 4) to examine their perspectives on three existing self-harm assessment tools (Non-Suicidal Self-Injury – Assessment Tool, Inventory of Statements About Self-Injury and Questionnaire for Non-Suicidal Self-Injury). Using a reflexive thematic analysis, we found one overarching theme – ‘picking the best of a bad bunch’ – where participants acknowledged some strengths of the tools, but multiple limitations outweighed these. Subthemes included cognitive considerations (e.g. complexity, length, working memory demands, introspection), missing elements (e.g. broader self-harm behaviours, functions, context, support) and challenges in conceptualising self-harm, particularly around intentionality and stimming. Participants also stressed the importance of addressing stigma, considering co-occurring conditions like attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and intellectual disabilities and upholding a duty of care. Overall, findings show that existing self-harm assessment tools are not appropriate or acceptable for autistic adults who self-harm, indicating a clear need for a new self-harm assessment tool developed with and for autistic people.Lay abstract The perspectives of autistic adults and professionals on existing self-harm assessment toolsSelf-harm is defined as when someone intentionally hurts or poisons themselves, regardless of the reason. This can include suicide attempts as well as behaviours such as cutting, hitting or burning as a way to express or manage difficult feelings. Concerningly, autistic people are more likely to self-harm than non-autistic people, but there are currently no tools specifically designed to assess self-harm in this group. This makes it harder for researchers and service providers to identify autistic people who self-harm and offer the right support or treatment. Previous studies have suggested that three existing self-harm assessment tools could be adapted for autistic people, but it is unclear what autistic adults and professionals think about these tools. We conducted two focus groups: one with autistic adults who have self-harmed and another with professionals who work with autistic people who self-harm. Both groups felt that none of the three tools were suitable for autistic people. They explained that some questions might be harder for autistic people to answer, such as those requiring them to remember specific details or identify their emotions. They also noted the tools missed out on important aspects of the autistic experience, like managing sensory and social overload. Both groups highlighted that self-harm is complex and discussed the overlap with behaviours such as stimming (e.g. repetitive movements or sounds). They emphasised the importance of a supportive approach to self-harm that considers the role of co-occurring conditions, like attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or intellectual disabilities, and ensures researchers and professionals prioritise participant safety. These findings suggest that instead of adapting existing tools, a new one should be developed specifically with and for autistic people. A tailored tool could help identify self-harm earlier and lead to better support for autistic adults.

Titre : ‘I live with my emotions much better now’: A qualitative study of autistic adults’ subjective experience of dialectical behaviour therapy Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Luisa WEINER, Auteur ; Doha BEMMOUNA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2741-2755 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism spectrum condition dialectical behaviour therapy emotion dysregulation non-suicidal self-injury qualitative analysis suicidality Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many Autistic adults without intellectual disability experience emotion dysregulation, which is associated with non-suicidal self-injury and suicidal behaviour. Dialectical behaviour therapy has been shown to be feasible, acceptable and potentially effective is supporting Autistic adults without intellectual disability with improved emotion regulation. Since dialectical behaviour therapy research is in its early stages in the field of autism, it is crucial to better understand the subjective experience of Autistic adults who received dialectical behaviour therapy to improve its pertinence for this population. Twenty-two Autistic adults presenting with emotion dysregulation with non-suicidal self-injury and/or suicidal behaviour/ideation who received a comprehensive dialectical behaviour therapy were interviewed using a semi-structured approach. A reflexive thematic analysis was conducted. Three superordinate themes were identified from the thematic analysis: (1) dialectical behaviour therapy is highly useful, structured and demanding; (2) dialectical behaviour therapy leads to changes in emotion labelling, emotion regulation and relationships; and (3) self-acceptance and feeling empowered to handle life’s challenges. Ideas to foster the pertinence of dialectical behaviour therapy for Autistic adults were also collected. Our findings indicate that dialectical behaviour therapy was experienced as highly helpful despite the effort it requires. Participants reported changes in emotion experience, social relationships, self-concept and quality of life, probably due to increased emotion awareness, emotion control and self-regulation. Suggestions include the increased use of modelling to foster skills acquisition.Lay Abstract Many Autistic adults struggle with their emotion regulation. Dialectical behaviour therapy is the main therapy available to teach emotion regulation skills to people with this kind of struggle. Prior work has shown that dialectical behaviour therapy might be effective for Autistic people. Yet interest in dialectical behaviour therapy is new in the field of autism, so it is important to understand whether and how the therapy may help Autistic adults better live with their emotions. This article uses interviews conducted with 22 Autistic people following dialectical behaviour therapy. We outline several factors that might make dialectical behaviour therapy effective for Autistic people. For instance, dialectical behaviour therapy seems to help Autistic people better label and understand their emotions, but also accept and respect themselves. Nevertheless, dialectical behaviour therapy is demanding and some changes are suggested to improve the effects of dialectical behaviour therapy, such as providing a less intensive format to diminish fatigue. Our article provides evidence for the usefulness of dialectical behaviour therapy to help Autistic adults better deal with their emotions and improve their quality of life. Building from the experience of Autistic people, our study highlights the perceived benefits of dialectical behaviour therapy and the potential changes (e.g. reduction of text) to improve the utility of dialectical behaviour therapy for Autistic adults.
