The Flexibility Scale: Development and Preliminary Validation of a Cognitive Flexibility Measure in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders / John F. STRANG in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 47-8 (August 2017)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 47-8 (August 2017) . - p.2502-2518 Titre : The Flexibility Scale: Development and Preliminary Validation of a Cognitive Flexibility Measure in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John F.

However, existing informant reports do not densely sample cognitive aspects of flexibility; the Flexibility Scale (FS) was developed to address this gap. This study investigates the validity of the FS in 221 youth with ASD and 57 typically developing children. Exploratory factor analysis indicates a five-factor scale: Routines/rituals, transitions/change, special interests, social flexibility, and generativity. The FS demonstrated convergent and divergent validity with comparative domains of function in other measures, save for the Generativity factor. The FS discriminated participants with ASD and controls. Thus, this study suggests the FS may be a viable, comprehensive measure of flexibility in everyday settings.

Adaptive Behavior in Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder: The Role of Flexibility / Jennifer R. BERTOLLO in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 50-1 (January 2020)  

Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Autism and Developmental Disorders > 50-1 (January 2020) . - p.42-50 Titre : Adaptive Behavior in Youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder: The Role of Flexibility Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Jennifer R. BERTOLLO, Auteur ; John F. STRANG, Auteur ; Laura G. ANTHONY, Auteur ; Lauren KENWORTHY, Auteur ; Gregory L. WALLACE, Auteur ; Benjamin E. YERYS, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.42-50 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adaptive behavior  Autism spectrum disorder  Executive function  Flexibility Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Cognitive and behavioral flexibility are important predictors of adaptive behavior in school-age autistic youth. While prior research has utilized broad measures of flexibility, the current study uses the multi-dimensional Flexibility Scale-Revised to examine which specific flexibility skills relate to adaptive functioning. Through parent-report measures on 216 autistic youth, flexibility explained 22.2% of variance in adaptive socialization skills (p < 0.001). Specifically, Social Flexibility accounted for significant variance in adaptive socialization skills, while Transitions/Change approached significance. In exploratory analyses, flexibility explained 11.5% of variance in Communication skills (p < 0.001). This pattern remained after controlling for co-occurring ADHD symptoms. The current study helps to refine the relationship between flexibility and adaptive behavior, which may ultimately help to inform more targeted interventions.

Stop and Change: Inhibition and Flexibility Skills Are Related to Repetitive Behavior in Children and Young Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders / Mandy A.L. MOSTERT-KERCKHOFFS in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 45-10 (October 2015)

In the present study, prepotent response inhibition and attentional flexibility were examined in 64 high-functioning individuals with ASD and 53 control participants. Performance under different task conditions were tested both in response to visual and auditory information, and requiring a motor or verbal response. Individuals with ASD showed significant more control dysfunctions than typically developing participants on the auditory computer task. Inhibitory control and attentional flexibility predicted RRB in everyday life. Specifically, response inhibition in reaction to visual information and task switching in reaction to auditory information predicted motor and sensory stereotyped behavior.

Understanding cognitive flexibility in emotional evaluation in autistic males and females: the social context matters / Yoann BENNETOT-DEVERIA ; Monica BACIU ; Frédéric DUTHEIL ; Valentin MAGNON ; Marie GOMOT ; Martial MERMILLOD in Molecular Autism, 15 (2024)  

Public ISBD [article]  inMolecular Autism > 15 (2024) . - 49 Titre : Understanding cognitive flexibility in emotional evaluation in autistic males and females: the social context matters Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Yoann BENNETOT-DEVERIA, Auteur ; Monica BACIU, Auteur ; Frédéric DUTHEIL, Auteur ; Valentin MAGNON, Auteur ; Marie GOMOT, Auteur ; Martial MERMILLOD, Auteur Article en page(s) : 49 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Humans  Male  Female  *Emotions  Adult  *Autistic Disorder/psychology  *Cognition  Young Adult  Social Behavior  Social Environment  Autism  Emotional processing  Flexibility  Gender differences  Predictive coding  Sex differences  Social processing  study, participants were presented with an informed consent form, which they had  to approve before proceeding. All procedures performed in this study involving  human participants were conducted in accordance with the Code of Ethics of the  World Medical Association (Declaration of Helsinki) and the study was approved by  the local ethics committee (CER-Grenoble Alpes, COMUE University Grenoble Alpes,  IRB00010290). Consent for publication: Not applicable. Competing interests: The  authors declare no competing interests. Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : BACKGROUND: Autistic individuals often have difficulty flexibly adjusting their behavior. However, laboratory experiments have yielded inconsistent results, potentially due to various influencing factors, which need to be examined in detail. This study aimed to investigate the hypothesis that the social content of stimuli could play a specific role in some of the flexibility challenges faced by autistic individuals. The second aim was to explore sex differences in this context. METHODS: We analyzed data from 256 adult participants (124 with autism), matched on age, gender, and sex, who performed an emotional shifting task involving unpredictable shifts between positive and negative stimuli. Additionally, the task included both social and non-social conditions. RESULTS: Our results revealed a larger switch cost in the social than in the non-social condition, and this was more pronounced in autistic than in non-autistic individuals. Furthermore, we observed that autistic females differed from autistic males in the non-social condition and from non-autistic females in the social condition. LIMITATIONS: The online nature of the study reduced the control over participant conditions. In addition, further studies are needed to investigate whether these results apply to the broader autism spectrum. CONCLUSIONS: Building on previous research demonstrating a greater switch cost in autistic than non-autistic individuals for socio-emotional stimuli, our study further extends these findings by highlighting that the social context, rather than the emotional nature of the stimuli alone, may play a significant role in the flexibility challenges faced by autistic individuals. Our findings also contribute to the literature on sex differences in autism.
