Waber, Deborah P.; Boiselle, Ellen C.; Forbes, Peter W.; Sideridis, Georgios D. – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2022
Learning disorders can have adverse impacts on children and families extending beyond the academic skills deficits. The goal of the present study was to assess the impact of the school's response, following an independent evaluation, for child and family school-related quality of life (QOL). We hypothesized that a positive school response would be…

M. Franci Crepeau-Hobson; Nancy Leech; Courtney Russell – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2022
Recent surveillance efforts indicate that 1 in 54 American children meet the criteria for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), making it the fastest growing neurodevelopmental disorder in the U.S. Despite evidence that ASD can be reliably diagnosed as early as 24 months, the median age at ASD diagnosis in 2016 in the U.S. was 51 months. The CLEAR…

Paul Luelmo; Rosalinda Larios; Fernanda Castellon – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2024
This is a scoping review driven by the broad research question: What are Latinx caregivers' specific facilitators and challenges, if any, in getting a timely diagnosis/identification for their child with autism? Our search resulted in 128 articles across various disciplines. A total of 43 articles were included in the final article set. Employing…

Bang, Peter; Strömberg, Maria; Meera, Shoba S.; Igelström, Kajsa – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
The broad autism phenotype (BAP) is a set of characteristics often observed in typically developing people with a genetic load for autism, such as parents of autistic children. The Broad Autism Phenotypic Questionnaire (BAPQ) is a 36-item questionnaire developed to identify the BAP in first-degree relatives of autistic people. We translated the…

Kylie Helm; Claire Selin – Perspectives of the ASHA Special Interest Groups, 2025
Purpose: Children from low socioeconomic environments (SEEs; i.e., families with parental education of high school or less and/or household income at or below federal poverty threshold) reportedly produce fewer vocabulary words compared to their higher SEE peers. However, whether that indicates a language delay or disorder is unclear since…

There are inequities in engagement with established early childhood developmental surveillance programs, eclipsing disadvantaged families. The current study sought to address this by dovetailing developmental surveillance with immunization visits and other opportunistic contacts with children at general practices). While 53 General Practices were…

Zubler, Jennifer; Kressly, Susan J.; del Campo de Gonzalez, Sara – ZERO TO THREE, 2022
Early identification of developmental delays and disabilities (DDs) is a key component of well-child visits. Recommendations for assessing children's development during these visits continue to evolve. For almost a century, developmental milestones have been used to identify children with atypical development. More recently, the American Academy…

Wen-Juan Liu; Xiao-He Yu; Li-Ying Hao; Yu-Feng Wang; Jiu-Ju Wang – Annals of Dyslexia, 2025
Excessive crowding in the visual periphery has been demonstrated in children with developmental dyslexia (DD). However, less is known about crowding in the fovea, even though foveal crowding is at least equally important, as reading is mostly accomplished through foveal vision. Here we used a special set of digit stimuli (Pelli fonts) to measure…

Güven, Selçuk; Friedmann, Naama – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2022
Purpose: We report here, for the first time, on developmental surface dyslexia in Turkish, a very transparent orthography. Surface dyslexia is a deficit in the lexical route, which forces the reader to read words via the sublexical route, leading to regularization errors. Methods: To detect surface dyslexia, we used reading aloud of loanwords with…

Informant-report measures for screening symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) are needed for low-resource settings if early identification is to be prioritized because early developmental concerns are likely to be expressed by parents and other caregivers. This paper describes the initial…

Kenten, Charlotte; Wray, Jo; Gibson, Faith; Russell, Jessica; Tuffrey-Wijne, Irene; Oulton, Kate – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2019
Background: Children and young people with learning disabilities experience poor health outcomes and lengthier hospital admissions than those without learning disabilities. No consistently applied, systematic approach exists across the NHS to identify and record this population. This paper describes practices in English hospitals to identify…

Lee, Shirley H. F.; Aziz, Syahiirah Abd; Hamid, Mawarni; Lim, Ya Chee; Koh, David; Chaw, Li Ling – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Background: Despite the global increase in the prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), relevant research studies are lacking in Brunei Darussalam. Various studies have shown a significant association between a lowered 2D:4D ratio (ratio of second digit/index finger to the fourth digit/ring finger) and ASD, making it one of the potential…

Children can be reliably diagnosed with autism as early as 3 years of age, and early interventions are initiated. There is often a significant gap between the age of onset of symptoms (2-3 years) and diagnosis (8-10 years) in Africa. We conducted a study to validate the Social Communication Questionnaire (SCQ) as a screening instrument in a rural…
