Family-centered care represents a collaborative partnership between caregivers and service providers, and is associated with positive caregiver and child outcomes. This approach may be especially important for caregivers with early concerns about autism, as service providers are often the gateway to appropriately-specialized intervention.…

Thom, Robyn P.; McDougle, Christopher J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Catatonia is a severe clinical syndrome which has been increasingly reported in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The prevalence of catatonia in ASD is unknown. Diagnosing catatonia in ASD is complicated by overlapping clinical features such as mutism, stereotypies, and echophenomena. Here, we present the clinical histories of two individuals with…

Hodges, Amy; Cordier, Reinie; Joosten, Annette; Bourke-Taylor, Helen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Limited interventions exist that support student's school participation. This paper describes a theoretical model of school participation and the iterative process that led to the development of an intervention that aims to improve the school participation of students on the autism spectrum and their typically developing peers. Literature on…

Ko, Jordan A.; Schuck, Rachel K.; Jimenez-Muñoz, María; Penner-Baiden, Kaitlynn M.; Vernon, Ty W. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Females with autism have unique socialization profiles, but less is known about sex/gender differences in the context of socialization interventions. This study utilized a combination of behavioral and survey measures to examine sex/gender differences in 32 autistic adolescents (10 females, 22 males) before and after participation in the 20-week…

Doehring, Peter – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
The present study explored the shift from understanding to intervention to population impact in the empirical research published in this journal at five points of time over 40 years since the release of DSM-III. Two-thirds of the more than 600 original studies identified involved basic research, a pattern that is consistent with previous analyses…

Teh, Elizabeth J.; Vijayakumar, Ranjith; Tan, Timothy Xing Jun; Yap, Melvin J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Studies have reported that physical exercise reduces maladaptive stereotyped motor behaviours (SMB) in children with ASD, but these intervention studies vary in design and outcome. The present systematic review and meta-analysis included 22 studies, involving 274 children with ASD, to quantify the effect of exercise on SMB and its potential…

Aaronson, Benjamin; Estes, Annette; Rogers, Sally J.; Dawson, Geraldine; Bernier, Raphael – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
We examined the relationship between the Early start Denver model (ESDM) intervention and mu rhythm attenuation, an EEG paradigm reflecting neural processes associated with action perception and social information processing. Children were assigned to either receive comprehensive ESDM intervention for two years, or were encouraged to pursue…

Petruccelli, Marisa; Ramella, Leah; Schaefer, Ana J.; Sheldrick, R. Christopher; Carter, Alice S.; Eisenhower, Abbey; Broder-Fingert, Sarabeth; Mackie, Thomas I. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) report on screening for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) highlighted the need for research that examines the harms potentially associated with screening so as to assess the overall net benefit of universal screening. In response, this study engages qualitative, semi-structured interviews to generate a…

Law, Mei L.; Singh, Jatinder; Mastroianni, Mathilde; Santosh, Paramala – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Prodromal symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have been detected within the first year of life. This review evaluated evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of parent-mediated interventions for infants under 24 months who are at risk for ASD. Electronic databases, including grey literature, were searched up till November 2019.…

MacKenzie, Kristen T.; Eack, Shaun M. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
This meta-analysis examines the impact of parent interventions on outcomes for parents of children with ASD. A systematic review of the literature produced 37 studies that met inclusion criteria. Random-effects models revealed small but significant impacts of intervention on parental outcomes, primarily in parenting confidence and mental health.…

Kent, Cally; Cordier, Reinie; Joosten, Annette; Wilkes-Gillan, Sarah; Bundy, Anita – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Play is often used in interventions to improve social outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Play is a primary occupation of childhood and, therefore, an important outcome of intervention. The Ultimate Guide to Play, Language and Friendship (PLF) is a peer-mediated intervention for 6-11-year-old children with ASD. A total of…

Droboniku, Michael J.; Mychailyszyn, Matthew P. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Animal-assisted intervention (AAI) has garnered public interest and has been implemented for youth with autism spectrum disorders--a practice supported by anecdotal evidence. While investigations of AAI for children with autism have been conducted, the extant literature is characterized by significant variability in methodology and practice. The…

Tanner, Amy; Dounavi, Katerina – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Pre-diagnostic intervention for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) allows symptoms to be addressed as they emerge, often between six to 18 months, rather than after the full onset of the disorder. A systematic literature review, spanning the previous six years was conducted in order to provide an updated review looking at the earliest behavior…
