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)…

Broomell, Alleyne P. R.; Savla, Jyoti; Calkins, Susan D.; Bell, Martha Ann – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Social cognition is a set of complex processes that mediate much of human behavior. The development of these skills is related to and interdependent on other cognitive processes, particularly inhibitory control. Brain regions associated with inhibitory control and social cognition overlap functionally and structurally, especially with respect to…

Tse, Andy C. Y.; Yu, C. C. W.; Lee, Paul H. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Children with autism spectrum disorder are often reported to have more sleep deficits and poorer sleep quality compared with children with typical development. However, most previous studies have serious methodological limitations, such as varying sample sizes in the comparison groups, wide age range of participants, and body mass index not…

Yi-Ling Chien; Yueh-Ming Tai; Yen-Nan Chiu; Wen-Che Tsai; Susan Shur-Fen Gau – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
The mediators of real-world executive functions in autism during the transition into adulthood are mainly unknown. This study aimed to identify the mediators for the behavioral and cognitive domains of real-world executive functions in late adolescent and young adult autistic populations. We followed up 289 autistic children (aged 11.6 ± 3.8, male…
