Marie Antoinette Hodge; Rebecca Sutherland; Kelsie A. Boulton; Sarah Jane Baracz; Natalie Ong; Beverley Bennett; Adam J. Guastella; Natalie Silove – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
Studies have shown that there are differences between the presentations of males and females diagnosed with autism. There remains a developing understanding about how the presentation of autism differs between boys (hereafter referred to as 'assigned males at birth') and girls (assigned females at birth). This study sought to investigate the…

Fombonne, Eric; Zuckerman, Katharine E. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Black children with autism are diagnosed at an older age. Whether or not late detection is paralleled by differing clinical presentation is not known. We evaluated symptom profiles of 245 Black and 488 sex- and age-matched White non-Hispanic participants (82.8% male; mean age: 4.2 years) referred for ASD diagnosis. Both groups showed similar…

Rosen, Nicole E.; McCauley, James B.; Lord, Catherine – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Siblings play an important role in shaping the developmental trajectories of individuals with autism spectrum disorder. Having siblings has been associated with better social communication, non-verbal communication, and theory of mind abilities in autism spectrum disorder. However, little is known about the impact of siblings on adaptive skill…

Linda Gilmore; Monica Cuskelly – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2025
There is evidence that mastery motivation contributes to developmental outcomes, both for typically developing individuals and for those with disabilities such as Down syndrome. Mastery motivation appears to be a stable trait, at least during early childhood, but research with adults has been restricted by the absence of an appropriate measure.…

Damien Wright; Aisling Kenny; Lindsay A. M. Mizen; Andrew G. McKechanie; Andrew C. Stanfield – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2024
This study aimed to describe the behavioral profile of individuals with SYNGAP1-ID. Parents/carers of 30 individuals aged 3-18 years old with a diagnosis of SYNGAP1-ID and 21 typically developing individuals completed the Vineland-3 Adaptive Behavior Scale and the Child Behavior Checklist. We found that those with SYNGAP1-ID showed fewer adaptive…

Lue Shen; Anfeng Xu; Lindsay K. Butler; Karen Chenausky; Marc Maffei; Shrikanth Narayanan; Helen Tager-Flusberg – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2025
Purpose: Conversational latency entails the temporal feature of turn-taking, which is understudied in autistic children. The current study investigated the influences of child-based and parental factors on conversational latency in autistic children with heterogeneous spoken language abilities. Method: Participants were 46 autistic children aged…

Deepika Jain; Kawaljit Singh Multani; Anjali Dodiya; Urva Benani; Anand Iyer – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2025
Adaptive behavior is paramount for independent living and is varyingly impaired in different neurodevelopmental disorders. This study aimed to investigate differences in adaptive behavior between children with autism spectrum disorder and social communication disorder, two conditions characterized by deficits in social communication. Data from 232…

McQuaid, Goldie A.; Pelphrey, Kevin A.; Bookheimer, Susan Y.; Dapretto, Mirella; Webb, Sara J.; Bernier, Raphael A.; McPartland, James C.; Van Horn, John D.; Wallace, Gregory L. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Adaptive functioning, or the suite of skills essential for real-world, day-to-day functioning, includes daily living, communication, and socialization abilities. Even in the absence of co-occurring intellectual disability (IQ < 70), difficulties in adaptive functioning are prominent in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Further, ASD individuals…

Nag, Heidi Elisabeth; Naerland, Terje – Journal of Intellectual Disabilities, 2021
Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS) is a genetic syndrome most often caused by a deletion on chromosome 17 or more rarely by a mutation in the retinoic acid-induced 1 gene. The aim of this study was to investigate the Developmental Behavior Checklist (DBC) profile of persons with SMS and the associations between behavioural and emotional problems, age,…

Safer-Lichtenstein, Jonathan; McIntyre, Laura Lee – Focus on Autism and Other Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Rates of children identified as having autism spectrum disorder (ASD) continue to increase in both medical and school settings. While procedures for providing a medical diagnosis are relatively consistent throughout the United States, the process for determining special education eligibility under an ASD classification varies by state, with many…

Rodas, Naomi V.; Blacher, Jan; Baker, Bruce L. – Journal of Mental Health Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2020
Introduction: We examined the development of anxiety in youth with or without intellectual disabilities (ID). We also examined the effects of child delay status, temperament, ethnicity, and negative parenting on anxiety symptom trajectory. Method: Participants were 177 families in (blinded). We employed latent growth curve modeling to examine the…

Children with autism spectrum disorder have a high risk of vision problems yet little is known about their vision care. This cross-sectional survey study, therefore, examined vision care among 351 children with autism spectrum disorder ages 6-17 years in the United States or Canada who were enrolled in the Autism Treatment Network Registry. Vision…

Kraamwinkel, Elmien; Kritzinger, Alta – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2022
Late language emergence (LLE) may result from genetic and environmental factors. Little is known about environmental factors in LLE in South Africa. The study describes the nature of differences in language functioning between toddlers with LLE and without LLE, and which factors were associated with LLE in a middle-income area in South Africa.…

Mood, Deborah; Sheldon, Rose; Tabangin, Meredith; Wiley, Susan; Meinzen-Derr, Jareen – Deafness & Education International, 2022
Children who are deaf and hard of hearing (DHH) often demonstrate pragmatic language difficulties which can impact academic and social outcomes. This randomized control trial for DHH children, ages 3-12 years, explored the Technology-Assisted Language Intervention (TALI), incorporating augmentative and alternative communication technology (AAC)…

Guthrie, Whitney; Wetherby, Amy M.; Woods, Juliann; Schatschneider, Christopher; Holland, Renee D.; Morgan, Lindee; Lord, Catherine E. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Robust evidence supports the efficacy of early autism intervention. Despite broad consensus that earlier intervention leads to better outcomes, evidence for this has been limited to correlational studies. This study examined timing effects of the Early Social Interaction (ESI) model, a parent-implemented intervention, using a complete crossover…
