Children with autistic symptoms experience challenges in school settings, yet little is known about their academic profiles and the mechanisms underlying the association between autistic symptoms and academic achievement. This study examined the association between autistic symptoms and academic achievement in a population-based sample of children…

Sleep problems are prevalent in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and have a range of causes, including circadian rhythm misalignment. However, little is known about sleep in autistic children with co-occurring attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). A cross-sectional descriptive and analytic study was conducted in 87 autistic children and…

Ercenur Ünal; Kevser Kirbasoglu; Dilay Z. Karadöller; Beyza Sümer; Asli Özyürek – Cognitive Science, 2025
In spoken languages, children acquire locative terms in a cross-linguistically stable order. Terms similar in meaning to in and on emerge earlier than those similar to "front" and "behind," followed by "left" and "right." This order has been attributed to the complexity of the relations expressed by…

Ashley S. Andersen; Jaime G. Crowley-Zalaket; Christopher W. Engler; Jason R. Zeleny; Kathryn M. Peterson; Aida G. Miles; Cathleen C. Piazza – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2024
Many children with autism spectrum disorder experience feeding difficulties that can lead to increased health risks (e.g., severe nutrition deficiencies, obesity-related illnesses) if left untreated. Intensive feeding programs that use behavior-analytic interventions have reported positive outcomes for treating challenging behavior associated with…

Objective: The short-term safety of methylphenidate (MPH) has been widely demonstrated; however the long-term safety is less clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the safety of MPH in relation to pubertal maturation and to explore the monitoring of bone age. Method: Participants from ADDUCE, a two-year observational longitudinal study…

This study examined the effects of Child-Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) on selfcompassion and emotion regulation skills in 8- to 12-year-old children diagnosed with cancer. The study was conducted using a pretest-posttest design with a control group. The participants were children undergoing long-term cancer treatment at Necmettin Erbakan University…

Woodard, Cooper R.; Harmony, Colin; Groden, June; Audet, Kristen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Past research suggests that stress and anxiety are more prevalent in persons with autism as compared to typically developing persons. The Stress Survey Schedule (SSS) was developed in 2001 as a means to measure stressors common to persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The present study compared SSS responses of a sample of students…

Kastner, Kendall M.; Tiger, Jeffrey H.; Gifford, Margaret R. – Education and Treatment of Children, 2023
As a treatment for escape-maintained problem behavior, differential reinforcement of alternative behavior (DRA) is typically initiated by reinforcing compliance on a dense reinforcement schedule. This work schedule is then progressively thinned such that the individual is required to complete more work, up to some socially acceptable terminal…

Russell T. Warne – Gifted and Talented International, 2023
Tests of measurement invariance are essential to determining whether individual scores or group averages are comparable across populations. While international comparisons of mean IQ scores are common, tests of measurement invariance for intelligence test batteries (necessary for comparisons to be empirically supported) are rare. In this study,…

Purpose: Developmental dyslexia is a specific learning disorder that affects 5-17% children, and persists into adulthood. Speech perception in noise (SPIN) ability in dyslexia has been largely examined in previous studies. However, the available literature remains controversial and it is unclear under which conditions the deficits occur. The…

Nattanun Chanchaochai; Florian Schwarz – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2024
This paper explores the acquisition of personal reference terms in Thai, a language with a highly complex personal reference system. Two separate studies were conducted for this paper, each featuring two groups of participants: children with typical development (TD) and children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). In each study, the…

Catherine A. Bacos; Michael P. McCreery; Randall Boone – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2024
Recent findings from social attention research suggest direct engagement with others is a necessary condition for the social cognitive development of both autistic children and their typically developing peers. These findings come from studies that have used eye-tracking technology and paradigms for measuring social attention in naturalistic,…

Marisa L. Mylett; Troy Q. Boucher; Nichole E. Scheerer; Grace Iarocci – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
The current study examined whether social competence and autistic traits are related to anxiety and depression in autistic and non-autistic children. Parents of 340 children aged 6 to 12 years old, including 186 autistic and 154 non-autistic children completed the Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) to assess their child's autistic traits, the…

Gallardo-Carrasco, Maria Carmen; Jiménez-Barbero, José Antonio; Bravo-Pastor, María del Mar; Martin-Castillo, David; Sánchez-Muñoz, María – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Vitamin and fatty acid deficiency in children diagnosed with autism has been linked to the etiology and course of the disease but the results have been inconsistent. In our work, we present a narrative review, which includes 20 observational studies that provide data on the blood levels of vitamin D, folate, or fatty acids of children diagnosed…

Zheng, Yinyuan; Matlen, Bryan; Gentner, Dedre – Cognitive Science, 2022
Visual comparison is a key process in everyday learning and reasoning. Recent research has discovered the spatial alignment principle, based on the broader framework of structure-mapping theory in comparison. According to the spatial alignment principle, visual comparison is more efficient when the figures being compared are arranged in…
