Gokcen Akyurek; Damla Aygun Gurbuz; Damla Ece Irmak – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2024
This study aimed to compare the executive functions (EFs) and occupational performance and perceived occupational proficiency (POP) in children with neurodevelopmental disorders. In this study, 72 children diagnosed with cerebral palsy (CP; n = 22), specific learning disabilities (SpLD; n = 26) or attention deficit and hyperactivity disorder…

Patrick M. Briley; Sandra Merlo; Charles Ellis – Journal of Developmental and Physical Disabilities, 2022
Stuttering and other developmental disorders are known to affect more male than female children. The present study compared: (1) stuttering prevalence in males and females at discrete ages and (2) prevalence of coexisting developmental disorders in male and female children who stutter (CWS). Data were obtained from the National Health Interview…

Iznardo, Michelle; Ryan, Julia; Rogers, Maria; McKibbin, Steve; Piers, Lisa; Hogan, Tim – Learning Disabilities: A Contemporary Journal, 2023
Difficulties of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity frequently cooccur with learning disabilities (LD) in childhood (Riccio et al., 1994; Silver, 2004), and are associated with increased risk for maladaptive academic and social-emotional outcomes (Morrison & Cosden, 1997; Bender, 2008). The present study endeavored to further our…

This study investigated the relationship between mathematics difficulties and psychopathology in a large community sample (N = 881) of youth (8-18 years of age) in the United States. The primary aims of the study were to (a) test the associations between mathematics difficulties and specific components of internalizing, externalizing, attention,…

Luoni, Chiara; Scorza, Maristella; Stefanelli, Silvia; Fagiolini, Barbara; Termine, Cristiano – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2023
Developmental dyscalculia (DD) has long been thought to be determined by multiple components. Dyscalculia has high comorbidity with other learning and developmental disabilities, including reading and writing disorders, attention deficits, and problems in visual/spatial skills, short memory, and working memory. This study aims to assess prevalence…

This study investigated the communication skills of children with autism spectrum disorders (H. M. Geurts & M. Embrechts), Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (Hilde M Geurts & Mariëtte Embrechts), and learning disability (H. M. Geurts & M. Embrechts) using the Children Communication Checklist to identify any commonalities in…

Kimberly Ann McCue – ProQuest LLC, 2021
Nonverbal Learning Disability (NLD) has been the focus of four decades of neuropsychological research. However, it has yet to be included as a diagnostic category in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (i.e., currently in its fifth edition, DSM-5, American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Many of the characteristics associated…

Álava Sordo, Silvia; Cantero-García, María; Garrido-Hernansaiz, Helena; Sánchez-Iglesias, Iván; Santacreu Mas, José – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2021
Introduction: The objective of this study is to find out if there are differences in selective and sustained attention between children with different subtypes of ADHD and children with learning disorders (LD), in order to improve the differential diagnosis between ADHD and PD and between the different subtypes of ADHD. Method: The sample…

Sordo, Silvia Álava; Garrido-Hernansaiz, Helena; Cantero-García, María; Sánchez-Iglesias, Iván; González-Moreno, Jesús; Santacreu, José – Electronic Journal of Research in Educational Psychology, 2021
Introduction: There are different tests that assess attention and can help to make a differential diagnosis between ADHD and Learning Disabilities (LD), but there appears to be little research on the convergent and predictive validity of these tests. The aim of this study was to analyze the convergent validity of the EMAV, Caras, d2, AGL, CPT-II…

Academic acceleration, which enhances challenges for academically gifted students, can be subject-based or whole-grade. Limited research has explored its application in the twice-exceptional population, where students possess notable cognitive strengths and challenges due to psychological diagnoses. Our clinical study investigates the likelihood…

Vaucheret Paz, E.; Martino, M.; Hyland, M.; Corletto, M.; Puga, C.; Peralta, M.; Deltetto, N.; Kuhlmann, T.; Cavalié, D.; Leist, M.; Duarte, B.; Lascombes, I. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
People punish transgressors with different intensity depending if they are members of their group or not. We explore this in a cross-sectional analytical study with paired samples in children with developmental disorders who watched two videos and expressed their opinion. In Video-1, a football-player from the participant's country scores a goal…

Atmaca, Furkan; Baloglu, Mustafa – Gifted Child Quarterly, 2022
We compared the Wechsler scores of individuals with twice-exceptionality (2e) and giftedness using a three-level Bayesian meta-analysis. Ninety-five effect sizes were calculated from 15 studies (n = 2,106). Results show that individuals with 2e who have learning disabilities perform lower than individuals with giftedness in Full-Scale Intelligence…

Kim, Sohyun An; Kasari, Connie – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Working memory is an important component of executive functioning, an area of difficulty for many autistic children. However, executive functioning and working memory are highly malleable throughout childhood, and various student-level and environmental factors play important roles in their development. This study used the Early Childhood…

Ishimoto, Yuma; Yamane, Takahiro; Matsumoto, Yuki – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
A large number of children with developmental disorders like autism spectrum disorder (ASD), learning disabilities, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder have high anxiety. It has also been shown that the high anxiety has harmful effects on them, directly and indirectly. In this study, we conducted a survey on community samples on the level…
