Awareness and Knowledge Associated with Autism Spectrum Disorders Among University Students in Zambia / T. CHANSA-KABALI in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 49-9 (September 2019)
[article]
Titre : Awareness and Knowledge Associated with Autism Spectrum Disorders Among University Students in Zambia Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : T. CHANSA-KABALI, Auteur ; J. NYONI, Auteur ; H. MWANZA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3571-3581 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorders Awareness Knowledge Zambia Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Experiences with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) in sub-Saharan Africa are characterized with lots of uncertainty, including lack of awareness and knowledge. This study examined ASD awareness and knowledge among 488 University of Zambia undergraduate students using an autism awareness and knowledge survey. Study findings on awareness revealed a high proportion of students-seventy-nine percent (79%) had never heard of ASD before the survey. Significant variation in aspects of ASD knowledge was explained by gender, having children, internet use and school of study. Implications of low levels of ASD awareness and knowledge is a call to invest in ASD awareness campaigns through different platforms in order to promote ASD knowledge that translates into increased ASD understanding for better service provision in Zambia.

Titre : Examining the Specific Effects of Context on Adaptive Behavior and Achievement in a Rural African Community: Six Case Studies from Rural Areas of Southern Province, Zambia Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Mei TAN, Auteur ; Jodi REICH, Auteur ; Lesley HART, Auteur ; Philip E. THUMA, Auteur ; Elena L. GRIGORENKO, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.271-282 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adaptive behavior Reading Zambia Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Generally accepted as universal, the construct of adaptive behavior differs in its manifestations across different cultures and settings. The Vineland-II (Sparrow et al. in Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second edn. AGS Publishing, Circle Pines, MN, 2005) was translated into Chitonga and adapted to the setting of rural Southern Province, Zambia. This version was administered to the parents/caregivers of 114 children (grades 3–7, mean age = 12.94, SD = 2.34). The relationships between these children’s adaptive behavior, academic achievement and cognitive ability indicators are compared to those usually observed in US samples. Results reflect no association between adaptive behavior and cognitive ability indicators, but a strong relationship between high adaptive behavior and reading-related measures. Six case studies of children with high and low scores on the Vineland-II are presented to illustrate the possible factors affecting these outcomes.

Titre : Moderators of treatment response to trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy among youth in Zambia Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Jeremy C. KANE, Auteur ; Laura K. MURRAY, Auteur ; Judith A. COHEN, Auteur ; Shannon DORSEY, Auteur ; Stephanie SKAVENSKI VAN WYK, Auteur ; Jennica GALLOWAY HENDERSON, Auteur ; Mwiya IMASIKU, Auteur ; John MAYEYA, Auteur ; Paul BOLTON, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.1194-1202 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Posttraumatic stress disorder orphans and vulnerable children Zambia trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy moderation analysis Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background The effectiveness of mental health interventions such as trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) may vary by client, caregiver, and intervention-level variables, but few randomized trials in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) have conducted moderation analyses to investigate these characteristics. This study explores moderating factors to TF-CBT treatment response among a sample of orphans and vulnerable children (OVC) in Zambia. Methods Data were obtained from a completed randomized trial of TF-CBT among 257 OVC in Zambia. Trauma symptoms and functioning were measured at baseline and following the end of treatment. Mixed effects regression models were estimated for each moderator of interest: gender, age, number of trauma types experienced, history of sexual abuse, orphan status, primary caretaker, school status, and parental involvement in treatment. Results Treatment effectiveness was moderated by history of sexual abuse with greater reductions in both outcomes (trauma, p < .05; functioning, p < .01) for those that experienced sexual abuse. Primary caretaker was also a moderator with greater trauma reductions in those who identified their mother as the primary caretaker (p < .01), and better functioning in those that identified their father as the primary caretaker (p < .05). Nonorphans and single orphans (mother alive) showed greater reduction in functional impairment (p < .01) compared with double orphans. There was no significant moderator effect found by gender, age, number of trauma types, school status, or caregiver participation in treatment. Conclusions This study suggests that TF-CBT was effective in reducing trauma symptoms and functional impairment among trauma-affected youth overall and that it may be particularly effective for survivors of child sexual abuse and children whose primary caretaker is a biological parent. Scale-up of TF-CBT is warranted given the wide range of effectiveness and prevalence of child sexual abuse. Future randomized trials of interventions in LMIC should power for moderation analyses in the study design phase when feasible.
