Newschaffer; Ruby Nguyen; Sally Ozonoff; T. Michael O'Shea; Rebecca J. Schmidt; Cindy O. Trevino; Kristen Lyall – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
Purpose: Prior work developed a shortened 16-item version of the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), a quantitative measure of social communication and autism spectrum disorder (ASD)-related traits. However, its properties for use in risk factor estimation have not been fully tested compared to the full SRS. We compared the associations between…

Since the retina shares its embryological origin with the central nervous system, optical coherence tomography (OCT), an imaging technique frequently employed in ophthalmology to analyze the macula and intraretinal layer thicknesses and volumes, has recently become increasingly important in psychiatric research. We examined 34 autistic and 31…

Damien Wright; Aisling Kenny; Lindsay A. M. Mizen; Andrew G. McKechanie; Andrew C. Stanfield – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
SYNGAP1-related ID is a genetic condition characterised by global developmental delay and epilepsy. Individuals with SYNGAP1-related ID also commonly show differences in attention and social communication/interaction and frequently receive additional diagnoses of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). We…

Jewel E. Crasta; Erica C. Jacoby – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
This study examined the effect of attention on auditory processing in autistic individuals. Electroencephalography data were recorded during two attention conditions (passive and active) from 24 autistic adults and 24 neurotypical controls, ages 17-30 years. The passive condition involved only listening to the clicks and the active condition…

Anna V. Oppenheimer; Marc G. Weisskopf; Kristen Lyall – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Purpose: The Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) is frequently used in research settings to measure characteristics associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A short version has been developed but not yet tested for certain properties of the full SRS, such as familiality. The purpose of this study was to determine if prior familiality…

Ka Shu Lee; Susan Shur-Fen Gau; Wan-Ling Tseng – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
Socio-cognitive difficulties in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are heterogenuous and often co-occur with irritability symptoms, such as angry/grouchy mood and temper outbursts. However, the specific relations between individual symptoms are not well-represented in conventional methods analyzing aggregated autistic symptoms and ASD…

Carey, Meghan E.; Rando, Juliette; Melnyk, Stepan; James, S. Jill; Snyder, Nathaniel; Salafia, Carolyn; Croen, Lisa A.; Fallin, M. Daniele; Hertz-Picciotto, Irva; Volk, Heather; Newschaffer, Craig; Lyall, Kristen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
We examined associations between prenatal oxidative stress (OS) and child autism-related outcomes. Women with an autistic child were followed through a subsequent pregnancy and that younger sibling's childhood. Associations between glutathione (GSH), glutathione disulfide (GSSG), 8-oxo-deoxyguanine (8-OHdG), and nitrotyrosine and younger sibling…

Jewel Elias Crasta; Olivia J. Green; William J. Gavin; Patricia L. Davies – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
This study evaluated attention, sensory processing, and social responsiveness and the relationship between these constructs among autistic and neurotypical adults. Participants included 24 autistic adults (17-30 years) and 24 neurotypical peers who completed the Test of Everyday Attention, Adolescent/Adult Sensory Profile (AASP), and the Social…

The Role of Everyday Executive Function in Observed Social Symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Christina Burroughs; Rachael A. Muscatello; Blythe A. Corbett – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
Recent research suggests there may be differences in the social presentations of autistic males and females. Camouflaging is believed to account for some of these differences and executive function (EF) may support compensatory social behaviors. As few studies have explored the role of sex and everyday EF when evaluating specific social…

Kaneko, Ayako; Ohshima, Remi; Noda, Haruka; Matsumaru, Tomoko; Iwanaga, Ryoichiro; Ide, Masakazu – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Studies have proposed that individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can be divided into several subtypes depending on their sensory features. However, consideration of social communication features is also crucial for configuring ASD subtypes, because social and sensory features are tightly interrelated. In this study, we asked Japanese…

Christopher Lopata; Marcus L. Thomeer; Jonathan D. Rodgers; James P. Donnelly; Jennifer Lodi-Smith – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2025
A prior randomized trial found a school social intervention yielded significantly better outcomes (social and autism features) immediately following intervention compared to typical school programming (services-as-usual [SAU]) for children on the autism spectrum. In that study, children in the SAU condition subsequently completed a summer social…

Laura Graham Holmes; Ziming Xuan; Emily Quinn; Reid Caplan; Amelia Sanchez; Peter Wharmby; Calliope Holingue; Sharon Levy; Emily F. Rothman – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
We explored factors predicting repeated or hazardous alcohol use among autistic and non-autistic U.S. youth ages 16 to 20 years. Autistic (n = 94) and non-autistic (n = 92) youth completed an online survey. By design, half of each group reported past-year alcohol use. We compared drinking patterns for autistic and non-autistic youth, and within…
