Purpose: Language studies on populations with rare genetic disorders are limited. Hence, there is little data on commonly found or expected developmental linguistic traits and cognitive mechanisms that may be impaired. Based on the hypothesis that there is a close connection between language and cognition and the relevance of specific genetic…

To retrospectively explore the characteristics of plasma amino acids (PAAs) in children with autism spectrum disorder and their clinical association via case-control study. A total of 110 autistic and 55 healthy children were recruited from 2014 to 2018. The clinical phenotypes included severity of autism, cognition, adaptability, and regression.…

Unlike in other countries, heredity and genetics appear first in Spanish science standards in secondary levels. However, some researchers have suggested the need of progressively introducing some basic genetic ideas already from primary education levels. In this context of no formal instruction in early stages, the objectives of our work were to…

The objectives of this study were to identify gaps in educational training for undergraduate and graduate students in agricultural data science, propose paths for filling these gaps, and provide an annotated list of resources currently available to different training levels. Data in this study was collected through three voluntary surveys catered…

Xin Zhang; Xue-Ke Song; Wing-Chee So – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Purpose: The heterogeneity of autism is well documented, but few studies have studied the heterogeneity of gesture production ability in autistic children. The present study aimed to identify subgroups of autistic children who displayed heterogeneous gesture production abilities and explore the underlying factors, including autism characteristics,…

Elizabeth A. Will; Kimberly J. Hills; Kayla Smith; Samuel McQuillin; Jane E. Roberts – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Fragile X syndrome (FXS), the leading heritable cause of intellectual disability, has a co-occurrence rate of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) estimated at ~60%. The onset and rates of motor development in FXS are slower relative to neurotypical development, and even more so in the context of co-occurring FXS + ASD. Extant evidence suggests these…

Prior theoretical and empirical research has highlighted links between positive parenting and the socioeconomic characteristics of the family's neighborhood, but has yet to illuminate the etiologic origins of this association. One possibility is that the various predictors of parenting outlined by Belsky (1984; e.g., characteristics of the child,…

Alexander Hill Waugh – ProQuest LLC, 2024
This dissertation consists of two distinct bodies of work. The first leverages a unique aspect of fire ant biology to investigate a potential role for a supergene in genetic assimilation. A supergene refers to a chromosome structural rearrangement, such as an inversion, that regulates the production of an alternative phenotype within a species. In…

Rachel L. Weisbecker; Lisabeth Fisher DiLalla – Developmental Psychology, 2024
Parenting behaviors have long been recognized as crucial to children's healthy development. However, examinations of the etiology of these behaviors are less prevalent. The current study investigated the driving forces behind parental warmth and discipline, particularly whether they are related more to traits within the parent or reactions to…

Dimitropoulos, Anastasia; Doernberg, Ellen A.; Russ, Sandra W.; Zyga, Olena – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder associated with social cognitive challenges, and pretend play has been demonstrated as a tool to achieve developmental goals. Following previous report on feasibility and acceptability of a remote, play-based parent-training program (Zyga, Russ, & Dimitropoulos, 2018), we now…

A key component of authentic undergraduate research experiences is supporting students in recognizing their agency to shape a research project and develop project ownership. Previous research has suggested design elements that could foster project ownership in course-based research experiences. However, research is needed to examine how these…

Objectives: The objective of this study was to examine baseline and longitudinal differences of self-reported dysarthria and dysphagia in the most common genetic subtypes of Parkinson's disease (PD) using the Parkinson's Progression Marker Initiative (PPMI) dataset. Methods: This was a retrospective, longitudinal study utilizing data from the PPMI…

Wu; Mustafa Sahin – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2025
Developmental domains, such as cognitive, language, and motor, are key concepts of interest in longitudinal studies of intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Normative scores (e.g., IQ) are often used to operationalize performance on standardized tests of these concepts, but it is the interval-distributed person-ability scores that are…

The Developmental Synaptopathies Consortium is a multisite natural history network studying rare, neurogenetic syndromes associated with synaptic dysfunction and developmental delays. One aim of the Consortium is clinical trial readiness, including identifying clinical concepts and validating their measurement. We evaluated the scope and…

We evaluate impacts heterogeneity of an Early Childhood Intervention, with respect to the Educational Attainment Polygenic Score (EA4 PGS) constructed from DNA data based on GWAS weights from a European population. We find that the EA4 PGS is predictive of several measures of child development, mother's IQ and, to some extent, educational…
