Direct linkGomez, Rapson; Stavropoulos, Vasileios; Vance, Alasdair – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and exploratory and factor analysis (EFA) aimed to determine the optimum Autism Spectrum Quotient--Children (AQ-Child) model. Initial CFA of parent ratings of the AQ-Child for 404 clinic-referred children with ADHD, aged between 4 and 11 years, revealed mixed/moderate support for the implied AQ-Child five-factor…

do Egito, Julia Horta Tabosa; Ferreira, Gabrielle Martins Ribeiro; Gonçalves, Manoela Izidoro; Osório, Ana Alexandra Caldas – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
This study examined the factor structure of the Brazilian version of the "Autism-Spectrum Quotient". This is a self-report questionnaire for continuous and quantitative assessment of autistic spectrum traits in adults. Confirmatory factor analysis was performed on the five-factor model ("social skill," "attention…

Beuker, Karin T.; Schjolberg, Synnve; Lie, Kari Kveim; Donders, Rogier; Lappenschaar, Martijn; Swinkels, Sophie H. N.; Buitelaar, Jan K. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
It is unclear whether symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in young children in the population fit the three-factor structure of ASD as described in the DSM-IV, and cluster together in individual subjects. This study analysed questionnaire data on ASD symptoms filled in by mothers of 11,332 18-month-old children that was collected in the…

Lau, Winnie Yu Pow; Kelly, Adrian B.; Peterson, Candida Clifford – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
The Autism Spectrum Quotient (AQ) has been widely used for measuring autistic traits however its factor structure has been primarily determined from nonclinic populations. This study aimed to establish an internally coherent and reliable factor structure for the AQ using a sample of 455 Australian adults of whom 141 had autism spectrum disorder…

This study reports on the development and validation of an abridged version of the 50-item Autism-Spectrum Quotient (AQ), a self-report measure of autistic traits. We aimed to reduce the number of items whilst retaining high validity and a meaningful factor structure. The item reduction procedure was performed on data from 1,263 Dutch students and…

Dworzynski, Katharina; Happe, Francesca; Bolton, Patrick; Ronald, Angelica – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2009
Factor structure and relationship between core features of autism (social impairments, communication difficulties, and restricted, repetitive behaviours or interests (RRBIs)) were explored in 189 children from the Twins Early Development Study, diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorders (ASDs) using the Development and Wellbeing Assessment (DAWBA;…

Frazier, Thomas W.; Youngstrom, Eric A.; Kubu, Cynthia S.; Sinclair, Leslie; Rezai, Ali – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2008
The factor structure of the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) algorithm items was examined using exploratory (EFA) and confirmatory factor analyses (CFA) factor methods. The ADI-R was completed for 1,170 youths and adults (ages 2-46). Results of EFAs indicated strong support for two-factor structure, with social communication and…

Magyar, Caroline I.; Pandolfi, Vincent – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2007
This study investigated the factor structure of the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS). Principal components analysis (PCA) and principal axis factor analysis (PAF) evaluated archival data from children presenting to a university clinic with suspected autism spectrum disorders (ASDs; N = 164). PCA did not replicate components identified by…

Lecavalier, Luc; Aman, Michael G.; Hammer, David; Stoica, Wendy; Mathews, Gregory L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2004
The Nisonger Child Behavior Rating Form (NCBRF) is a behavior rating scale designed for children and adolescents with mental retardation. The purpose of this study was to explore the psychometric properties of the NCBRF in a sample of 330 children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Parent and teacher ratings were independently…
