Manifestations of insistence on sameness (IS) and circumscribed interests (CI) are complex, with individuals varying considerably, not only in the types of behaviours they express, but also in terms of a behaviour's frequency, intensity, trajectory, adaptive benefits, and impacts. However, current quantitative RRB instruments capture only certain…

Purpose: In the context of developmental trajectories, the association between adaptive functioning and core autism symptomatology remains unclear. The current study examines the associations of adaptive behavior with autism symptom sub-domains and with different facets of symptom expression. Methods: Participants include 36 children with a recent…

Prior research has demonstrated that cognitive inflexibility is associated with anxiety in autistic individuals. Everyday patterns of behavioral inflexibility (e.g. observable inflexible behavior in the context of the need to change or adapt and that is manifested in real-world everyday settings) is common in autism and can be distinguished from…

Keary, Christopher J.; Mullett, Jennifer E.; Nowinski, Lisa; Wagner, Karyn; Walsh, Briana; Saro, Hannah K.; Erhabor, Gillian; Thibert, Ronald L.; McDougle, Christopher J.; Ravichandran, Caitlin T. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Anxiety is being increasingly identified in Angelman syndrome (AS). Qualitative questions and quantitative assessments were used to evaluate for anxiety in 50 subjects with AS. In-person evaluations assessed behaviors concerning for anxiety and circumstances wherein they occurred. Caregivers completed anxiety and other behavioral rating scales.…

Katherine Byrne; Kyle Sterrett; Alison Holbrook; So Hyun Kim; Rebecca Grzadzinski; Catherine Lord – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
The current study investigated the utility of the Brief Observation of Social Communication Change-Phrase Speech Young Fluent (BOSCC-PSYF) as an outcome measure of treatment response by analyzing the measure's psychometric properties and initial validity. The BOSCC coding scheme was applied to 345 administrations from 160 participants diagnosed…

Blume, Jessica; Kahathuduwa, Chanaka; Mastergeorge, Ann – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Brain connectivity of individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is heterogenous, as are the behavioral manifestations. The current study investigated brain-behavior relationships in the context of social skills and executive function profiles with data from the Autism Brain Imaging Database Exchange II. We calculated connectivity measures…

Zakai-Mashiach, Mati – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Autistic individuals' experience of the inclusion process is poorly understood, especially that of female pupils. This study retrospectively explored the views of autistic women who were included in general schools throughout childhood and adolescence, from elementary to high school, to understand their unique experiences and learn more about…

Jedrzejewska, Alicja; Dewey, Jessica – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Camouflaging is described as a set of strategies used to prevent others from noticing one's social difficulties. Research indicates heightened levels of camouflaging behaviours in the adult autistic population. To extend understanding of camouflaging in adolescents, this mixed-methods study explored camouflaging behaviours in offline and online…

We aimed to identify unique constellations of sensory phenotypes for genetic etiologies associated with diagnoses of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). Caregivers reported on sensory behaviors via the Sensory Profile for 290 participants (younger than 25 years of age) with ASD and/or ID diagnoses, of which…

Stefanaki, Areti; Gkogkos, Georgios; Varlokosta, Spyridoula; Gena, Angeliki – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Infants develop attachment to their caregivers very early on. The quality of attachment is considered to be crucial for the emotional development of humans and animals alike. Despite its importance, very little is known about how attachment develops between children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and their caregivers. The purpose of the…

Reduced social attention is characteristic of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It has been suggested to result from an early onset and excessive influence of circumscribed interests (CIs) on gaze behaviour, compared to typically developing (TYP) individuals. To date, these findings have been mixed. The current eye-tracking study utilised a visual…

Bernardin, Courtney J.; Mason, Erica; Lewis, Timothy; Kanne, Stephen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Camouflaging includes strategies used by individuals to mask or hide autistic traits. Research has shown that both autistic and neurotypical individuals engage in camouflaging and that there may be sex differences in the reasons for camouflaging in autistic adults. The purpose of this qualitative study was to extend previous research on the lived…

Schütz, Magdalena; Boxhoorn, Sara; Mühlherr, Andreas M.; Mössinger, Hannah; Freitag, Christine M.; Luckhardt, Christina – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
The ability to infer intentions from observed behavior and predict actions based on this inference, known as intention attribution (IA), has been hypothesized to be impaired in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The underlying neural processes, however, have not been conclusively determined. The aim of this study was to examine the…

Goldfarb, Yael; Golan, Ofer; Gal, Eynat – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
The study explores work motivation of autistic adults through the lens of Self-Determination Theory (SDT). Twelve autistic employees (ages 28-47; 3 females) participated in semi-structured qualitative interviews about their work experience. Analysis combined inductive and deductive approaches, identifying motivational themes emerging from the…

Quigley, Jennifer; Dowdy, Art; Trucksess, Kelly; Finlay, Amanda – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Individuals diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) who engage in stereotypy may also emit a prior, temporally contiguous, high-risk response to access stereotypic behaviors. For example, the participant in this study who was diagnosed with ASD engaged in a chained response that included elopement, often in unsafe locations, to access light…
