Direct linkBrosnan, Mark – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Prevalence rates of autism based upon child samples have shown a consistent increase over the past three decades, suggesting that many autistic adults are undiagnosed. Adult diagnostic pathways typically are initiated with measures of autistic-like traits. Whilst autistic-like traits represent a continuous dimension across the general population,…

Tse, Andy C. Y. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Problems with emotion regulation and behavior are often reported in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). This pilot study examined the effect of physical exercise on emotion regulation and behavioral functioning in children with ASD. Twenty-seven children aged 8-12 years were randomized into either an exercise intervention group (n = 15)…

Alfageh, Basmah H.; Man, Kenneth K. C.; Besag, Frank M. C.; Alhawassi, Tariq M.; Wong, Ian C. K.; Brauer, Ruth – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a lifelong disorder. In the UK, risperidone is the only psychotropic medication approved for the management of the behavioural symptoms that may accompany autism. This is a population-based study aimed to provide an evaluation of the changing trend in the incidence and prevalence of ASD and to analyse the pattern…

Wagels, Lisa; Schneider, Isabella; Menke, Saskia; Ponge, Anna Katharina; Kohn, Nils; Schneider, Frank; Habel, Ute – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Externalizing behaviors in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are often either reduced or elevated compared to healthy controls (HCs). This study investigated the moderating role of context in ASD by comparing 32 individuals with ASD to 40 HCs during a social and a non-social provocation task. Compared to HCs, individuals with ASD…

Toseeb, Umar; McChesney, Gillian; Oldfield, Jeremy; Wolke, Dieter – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Sibling bullying is associated with various psychosocial difficulties. We investigated this in 231 individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and 8180 without ASD between middle childhood (age 11 years) and early adolescence (age 14 years). On the whole, self-reported sibling bullying decreased from middle childhood to early adolescence.…

Ratto, Allison B.; Reimann, Gabrielle; Nadwodny, Nicole – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Previous findings show executive functioning advantages associated with dual language learning (DLL) among neurotypical individuals, yet few studies have investigated these effects in youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The present study investigated effects of DLL and socioeconomic status (SES) on parent-reported executive functioning,…

Obeid, Rita; Bisson, Jennifer Bailey; Cosenza, Alexandra; Harrison, Ashley J.; James, Faith; Saade, Sabine; Gillespie-Lynch, Kristen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Are implicit and explicit biases related to ASD identification and/or stigma? College students (N = 493) completed two IATs assessing implicit stigma and racial biases. They evaluated vignettes depicting a child with ASD or conduct disorder (CD) paired with a photo of a Black or White child. CD was more implicitly and explicitly stigmatized than…

Scheithauer, Mindy; Call, Nathan A.; Lomas Mevers, Joanna; McCracken, Courtney E.; Scahill, Lawrence – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Elopement is a common and dangerous concern in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). There is evidence that behavior analytic treatments can successfully treat elopement, but the research is limited due to small samples and treatment components varying across studies. The current study evaluated the feasibility of studying a manualized intervention for…

Bolbocean, Corneliu; Rhidenour, Kayla B.; McCormack, Maria; Suter, Bernhard; Holder, J. Lloyd – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Between July 2020 and January 2021, 230 principal caregivers completed a questionnaire to measure proxy-assessed health-related quality of life outcomes (HRQoL), behavioral outcomes in children with syndromic autism spectrum disorders and COVID-19 induced changes to lifestyle and environments. HRQoL and behavioral outcomes reported earlier during…

Girls and boys might differ in autistic symptoms and associated cognitive difficulties such as executive function (EF). We investigated sex differences in the relationship between parent rated EF and autistic symptoms in 116 children and adolescents (25 girls) aged 5-19 years with an intelligence quotient above 70 and an autism spectrum disorder…

Miller, Haylie L.; Thomi, Morgan; Patterson, Rita M.; Nandy, Karabi – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Children with complex behavioral profiles (e.g., ASD + ADHD) may experience delays in obtaining a final diagnosis. Low-resource or underrepresented groups may be at even greater risk for delayed diagnosis. We assessed the effect of sociodemographic factors, symptom complexity and co-occurring conditions, and identifier of first symptoms on…

Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by neurodevelopmental delays, hyperphagia, difficulties with social communication and challenging behaviours. Individuals require intensive supervision from caregivers which may negatively affect caregiver quality of life. This study used data collected in the Australasian PWS…

Zlomke, Kimberly R.; Jeter, Kathryn – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Youth with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often display disruptive behavior and noncompliance. Disruptive behavior in youth with ASD may limit their participation in educational and therapeutic activities and impact family functioning. Several evidence-based interventions are available for typically developing children, such as Parent-Child…

Nasca, Brian C.; Lopata, Christopher; Donnelly, James P.; Rodgers, Jonathan D.; Thomeer, Marcus L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
This study examined sex differences in externalizing and internalizing symptoms of children with ASD without intellectual disability (ID). The sample (n = 80) included 40 girls and 40 boys, ages 6-12 years, with ASD (without ID) matched on age and IQ. Externalizing and internalizing symptoms were significantly elevated for this sample (girls and…

Fielding-Gebhardt, Heather; Warren, Steven F.; Brady, Nancy C. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Parenting children with neurodevelopmental disabilities is often challenging. Biological mothers of children with Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) may be susceptible to increased risk of mental health problems. This study examined the longitudinal relationships between maternal mental health, child challenging behaviors, and mother-child relationship…
