Tomaszewski, Brianne; Hepburn, Susan; Blakeley-Smith, Audrey; Rogers, Sally J. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Longitudinal growth modeling was utilized to examine adaptive behavior over eight years across the three time points (i.e., ages 2-10). Seventy-six parents completed the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales interviews of adaptive behavior. Child participants completed standardized developmental testing and an executive function task in toddlerhood…

Ben-Itzchak, Esther; Zachor, Ditza A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
This prospective study examined the developmental changes over time of adolescents diagnosed in toddlerhood with autism spectrum disorder and searched for child characteristics at toddlerhood that predict outcome at adolescence. The study included 65 participants who were divided into low cognitive (developmental quotient [less than] 85; N = 41)…
