Associations between co-occurring conditions and age of autism diagnosis: Implications for mental health training and adult autism research / Nikita JADAV in Autism Research, 15-11 (November 2022)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 15-11 (November 2022) . - p.2112-2125 Titre : Associations between co-occurring conditions and age of autism diagnosis: Implications for mental health training and adult autism research Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Nikita JADAV, Auteur ; Vanessa H. BAL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2112-2125 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adult  Female  Infant, Newborn  Humans  Adolescent  Young Adult  Middle Aged  Aged  Aged, 80 and over  Autistic Disorder/complications/diagnosis/epidemiology  Autism Spectrum Disorder/complications/diagnosis/epidemiology  Mental Health  Surveys and Questionnaires  adults  aging/ASD in adults  clinical psychology  co-morbid conditions  Psychological Services and has received honoraria and/or consulting fees from  Regeneron, Janssen and Simons Foundation for unrelated work. Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adult autism studies are increasingly comprised of later-diagnosed adults, yet little is known about how these adults compare to those diagnosed earlier in life. The present study examines medical and psychiatric conditions endorsed by autistic adults and documents differences between those diagnosed with ASD in childhood versus adulthood, as well as across age groups and sex at birth. 4657 legally independent adults (ages 18-85, M = 33.4 years) with professional ASD diagnoses who completed a medical questionnaire were drawn from the Simons Powering Autism Research Knowledge (SPARK) study. Chi square analyses, t-tests, and logistic regressions were used to compare medical and psychiatric conditions between age groups, sex at birth and adults diagnosed in childhood (before age 21) versus adulthood (at or after 21 years). Overall number of conditions endorsed as being diagnosed by a professional was high, with an average of 1.69 (SD = 2.01) medical or developmental and 2.98 (SD = 2.29) psychiatric conditions reported across the sample. Females were more likely to endorse psychiatric conditions (OR = 1.68). Adult-diagnosed adults were more likely to endorse psychiatric conditions (OR = 2.71) and reported more lifetime psychiatric diagnoses (M = 3.15, SD = 2.23) than their childhood-diagnosed counterparts (M = 2.81, SD = 2.33). These findings underscore the need for research to better understand and treat co-occurring psychiatric conditions in autistic adults and report and consider the age of diagnosis in adult autism samples. Moreover, results suggest it is imperative that mental health professionals receive autism training to promote accurate differential diagnosis and equitable access to mental health care for autistic adults with co-occurring psychiatric conditions.

Social anxiety symptoms in autism spectrum disorder and social anxiety disorder: Considering the reliability of self-report instruments in adult cohorts / Kelsie A. BOULTON in Autism Research, 14-11 (November 2021)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 14-11 (November 2021) . - p.2383-2392 Titre : Social anxiety symptoms in autism spectrum disorder and social anxiety disorder: Considering the reliability of self-report instruments in adult cohorts Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kelsie A. BOULTON, Auteur ; A. J. GUASTELLA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2383-2392 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adult  Anxiety  Autism Spectrum Disorder/complications  Fear  Humans  Phobia, Social  Reproducibility of Results  Self Report  adults  autism spectrum disorder  rating scales  reliability  social anxiety  social anxiety disorder Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are at elevated risk for social anxiety disorder (SAD). Limited information exists on the reliability of social anxiety instruments with these adults and their performance when compared to individuals with SAD without ASD. This study examines psychometric properties of self-report social anxiety instruments in autistic adults without intellectual disability, compared to adults with SAD. Additionally, we compared instrument scores between a subgroup of autistic adults with a dual diagnosis of SAD (ASD?+?SAD) and adults with SAD only. Adults diagnosed with SAD (N = 316) or ASD (N = 102) were recruited from the Brain and Mind Centre in New South Wales, Australia. Sixty autistic participants also received a diagnosis of SAD (ASD?+?SAD). Participants completed the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale-self-report, the Social Interaction Anxiety Scale, the Social Phobia Scale, and the Brief Fear of Negative Evaluation Scale. All instruments showed excellent internal consistency in autistic adults. The instruments showed evidence of convergent validity, and the strength of relationships between measures were equivalent between ASD and SAD groups. For all instruments, performance of these instruments in autistic adults with a SAD diagnosis was very similar to performance in adults diagnosed with SAD but without ASD. Findings support the use of these instruments for identifying social anxiety symptoms in autistic adults without intellectual disability and have utility for mental health clinical services. LAY SUMMARY: Autistic adults often experience social anxiety. We examined the use of four social anxiety questionnaires in autistic adults, compared to adults with SAD. We found similar results between autistic adults and adults with SAD, suggesting that these questionnaires can be useful for measuring social anxiety symptoms in autistic adults. These findings have implications for clinical services, as they show that these instruments are reliable when used with autistic adults.

Child and Adult Factors Related to Quality of Life in Adults with Autism / Philippa MOSS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 47-6 (June 2017)

Overall, assessments of QOL were more positive than measures of objective social outcome (jobs, independence, relationships etc.) but correlations between caregiver and self-reports were low. Informant ratings indicated few correlations between current QoL and any child or adult factors. On self-report ratings, QoL was significantly negatively correlated with severity of repetitive behaviours in childhood; higher QoL was positively associated with better adult social outcomes. However, only a minority of adults (n?=?22) could provide self-report data and findings highlight the need to develop valid measures for assessing the well-being of adults with autism.

National and State Trends in autistic Adult Supplemental Security Income Awardees: 2005-2019 / Kristy A. ANDERSON in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-8 (August 2022)

We identified three main findings: the number of autistic awards increased between 2005 and 2019 when awards for all other mental health disorders declined; roughly nine out of every 10 autistic adult awardees were between ages 18-25 years; there was variation in the growth of autistic awards across states. These findings support the need to consider geographic and age differences in SSI program participation among autistic adults and determine the underlying causes.

Prevalence of Autism Spectrum Disorders in Adult Outpatient Psychiatry / Johan NYRENIUS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 52-9 (September 2022)

In this study, all new patients referred to an adult psychiatric outpatient clinic in Sweden between November 2019 and October 2020 (n=562) were screened for autism spectrum disorders using the Ritvo Autism and Asperger Diagnostic Scale Screen (RAADS-14). Out of the 304 (58%) responders, 197 who scored above the cut off (14) were invited to participate in an in-depth assessment. Twenty-six of the 48 that participated in the assessment met criteria for ASD and an additional eight had subthreshold ASD symptoms. We estimated the prevalence of ASD in this population to at least 18.9%, with another 5-10% having subthreshold symptoms.
