Executive functioning in men and women with an autism spectrum disorder / Michelle KIEP in Autism Research, 10-5 (May 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism Research > 10-5 (May 2017) . - p.940-948 Titre : Executive functioning in men and women with an autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Michelle KIEP, Auteur ; Annelies A. SPEK, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.940-948 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : autism  executive functioning  gender differences  females with autism Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Executive functioning (EF) is thought to be linked to autism spectrum disorders (ASD) specific symptoms. The majority of research has focused on children and adolescents with ASD and, therefore, little is known about EF in adults. Furthermore, little is known about gender differences. Ninety-nine men and forty women with ASD were compared with and 35 neurotypical men 25 neurotypical women. Participants were matched on age, total intelligence, and verbal ability. The following instruments were used to measure executive functioning: digit span and letter and number sequencing of the WAIS-III, Tower of Hanoi, WCST, and Verbal fluency. Multiple analysis of variance was conducted to determine group differences. Women with ASD performed worse on the working memory tasks of the WAIS-III than neurotypical women. Furthermore, women with ASD had more perseverations on the WCST than neurotypical women. The gender comparison in the ASD group showed differences in performance on mental flexibility (WCST), working memory (WAIS-III), generativity and self-monitoring (Verbal fluency). However, these differences were unequivocal and no gender specific cognitive profile could be pinpointed. Individual strengths and frailties should be highlighted in clinical practice, as impairments in EF can be under influence of the overall cognitive abilities of the individual. Furthermore, gender differences were found. This could explain differences in representation of ASD symptoms in both groups. These differences show how important thorough diagnostics are.

Executive functioning and local-global visual processing: candidate endophenotypes for autism spectrum disorder? / Lien VAN EYLEN in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 58-3 (March 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 58-3 (March 2017) . - p.258-269 Titre : Executive functioning and local-global visual processing: candidate endophenotypes for autism spectrum disorder? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lien VAN EYLEN, Auteur ; Bart BOETS, Auteur ; Nele COSEMANS, Auteur ; Hilde PEETERS, Auteur ; Jean STEYAERT, Auteur ; Johan WAGEMANS, Auteur ; Ilse NOENS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.258-269 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism spectrum disorder  relatives  intermediate phenotype  executive functioning  central coherence Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Heterogeneity within autism spectrum disorder (ASD) hampers insight in the etiology and stimulates the search for endophenotypes. Endophenotypes should meet several criteria, the most important being the association with ASD and the higher occurrence rate in unaffected ASD relatives than in the general population. We evaluated these criteria for executive functioning (EF) and local-global (L-G) visual processing. Methods By administering an extensive cognitive battery which increases the validity of the measures, we examined which of the cognitive anomalies shown by ASD probands also occur in their unaffected relatives (n = 113) compared to typically developing (TD) controls (n = 100). Microarrays were performed, so we could exclude relatives from probands with a de novo mutation in a known ASD susceptibility copy number variant, thus increasing the probability that genetic risk variants are shared by the ASD relatives. An overview of studies investigating EF and L-G processing in ASD relatives was also provided. Results For EF, ASD relatives – like ASD probands – showed impairments in response inhibition, cognitive flexibility and generativity (specifically, ideational fluency), and EF impairments in daily life. For L-G visual processing, the ASD relatives showed no anomalies on the tasks, but they reported more attention to detail in daily life. Group differences were similar for siblings and for parents of ASD probands, and yielded larger effect sizes in a multiplex subsample. The group effect sizes for the comparison between ASD probands and TD individuals were generally larger than those of the ASD relatives compared to TD individuals. Conclusions Impaired cognitive flexibility, ideational fluency and response inhibition are strong candidate endophenotypes for ASD. They could help to delineate etiologically more homogeneous subgroups, which is clinically important to allow assigning ASD probands to different, more targeted, interventions.

Executive functioning and treatment outcome among adolescents undergoing cognitive-behavioral therapy for binge-eating disorder / Andrea B. GOLDSCHMIDT in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 66-1 (January 2025)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 66-1 (January 2025) . - p.64-74 Titre : Executive functioning and treatment outcome among adolescents undergoing cognitive-behavioral therapy for binge-eating disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Andrea B. GOLDSCHMIDT, Auteur ; Kwonho JEONG, Auteur ; Lan YU, Auteur ; Amy H. EGBERT, Auteur ; Ricarda SCHMIDT, Auteur ; Anja HILBERT, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.64-74 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Executive functioning  binge eating  loss of control eating  adolescent  cognitive-behavioral therapy Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) is an evidence-supported treatment for adolescents with binge-eating disorder (BED). Executive dysfunctions, which are associated with binge eating and elevated body weight in youth, may undermine CBT outcomes by making it difficult for youth to engage with or adhere to treatment, including recalling and/or implementing intervention strategies in real-world contexts. Methods We assessed 73 adolescents [82.2% female; Mage 15.0+2.5 year; M baseline standardized body mass index (zBMI) 1.9+1.0 kg/m2] with BED at baseline, posttreatment, 6-, 12-, and 24-month follow-up. Linear mixed models examined the effects of baseline executive functioning (EF) on loss of control (LOC) eating and weight change following CBT. Linear and logistic regressions probed associations between EF, attendance, and attrition. Results More impulsive decision-making, as reflected in higher baseline scores on the Iowa Gambling Task, predicted better attendance (? .07; p .019) and more frequent LOC eating following treatment (? .12; p .017). Lower cognitive flexibility, as reflected in lower baseline T-scores on the Comprehensive Trail Making Test complex sequencing index, predicted higher zBMI following treatment (? ?.03; p .003). Inhibition, concentration, attention, and parent-reported EF behavior symptoms were not associated with outcome, attendance, or attrition. Conclusions More impulsive decision-making and lower cognitive flexibility were associated with suboptimal response to CBT for BED, although findings should be interpreted with caution in light of the sample size and waitlist control design. Future research should examine whether strengthening EF could improve eating and weight outcomes among adolescents with BED who have lower pre-treatment EF.

Executive functioning as a prospective moderator of the relations between maltreatment in childhood and externalizing symptoms and wellbeing from adolescence to young adulthood / Rafaella J. JAKUBOVIC in Development and Psychopathology, 37-3 (August 2025)

To address this multifinality, we used latent growth curve modeling to identify trajectories of (a) externalizing symptoms and (b) subjective wellbeing from late adolescence through young adulthood, determine whether types of childhood maltreatment and domains of executive functioning (EF) are associated with initial levels and growth (slopes) of externalizing symptoms or subjective wellbeing, and investigate whether EF moderates these relations. Participants were youth recruited at ages 10-12 (N = 775; 69% male, 31% female; 76% White, 21% Black/African American, 3% multiracial). We examined EF at ages 10-12, childhood maltreatment reported retrospectively at age 25, and externalizing symptoms and subjective wellbeing at multiple points between ages 16 and 28. Experience of childhood maltreatment and certain EF domains were associated with externalizing symptoms and subjective wellbeing at age 16. EF domains were associated with rate of change in externalizing problems, though not in expected directions. EF variables moderated the relation between maltreatment and initial levels of both outcomes and change in externalizing symptoms. Findings have implications for intervention efforts to mitigate externalizing problems and bolster positive adjustment.

Executive functioning in children with specific language impairment / Lucy A. HENRY in Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 53-1 (January 2012)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 53-1 (January 2012) . - p.37-45 Titre : Executive functioning in children with specific language impairment Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Lucy A.

MESSER, Auteur ; Gilly NASH, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.37-45 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Specific language impairment  executive functioning  children  verbal IQ  nonverbal IQ Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background:  A limited range of evidence suggests that children with specific language impairment (SLI) have difficulties with higher order thinking and reasoning skills (executive functioning, EF). This study involved a comprehensive investigation of EF in this population taking into account the contributions of age, nonverbal IQ and verbal ability. Methods:  Ten separate measures of EF were assessed in 160 children: 41 had SLI; 31 had low language/cognitive functioning but did not fulfil the criteria for SLI (low language functioning or LLF); and 88 were typically developing with no language difficulties. Group differences in performance were assessed after controlling for age, nonverbal IQ and verbal ability in a series of regression analyses. Results:  Children with SLI and LLF had significantly lower performance than typical children on 6 of the 10 EF tasks once age and nonverbal IQ had been controlled (verbal and nonverbal executive-loaded working memory, verbal and nonverbal fluency, nonverbal inhibition and nonverbal planning). Performance on these EF tasks remained lower for those in the SLI group even when verbal IQ was entered in the regressions. Conclusions:  Children with language impairments showed marked difficulties on a range of EF tasks. These difficulties were present even when adjustments were made for their verbal abilities.
