Direct linkYan, Tingrui; Hou, Yujia; Deng, Meng – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Parental involvement plays a pivotal role in promoting developmental and educational outcomes for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). This study aimed to examine the relationships between social support, parenting stress, and parental involvement by investigating a sample of 245 Chinese parents of children with ASD. Mediation analyses…

Lory, Catharine; Kadlaskar, Girija; McNally Keehn, Rebecca; Francis, Alexander L.; Keehn, Brandon – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Dysregulation of the autonomic nervous system (ANS), which can be indexed by heart rate variability (HRV), has been posited to contribute to core features of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the relationship between ASD and HRV remains uncertain. We assessed tonic and phasic HRV of 21 children with ASD and 21 age- and IQ-matched typically…

Ketcheson, Leah; Felzer-Kim, Isabella Theresa; Hauck, Janet L. – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 2021
Purpose: There is a relationship between motor and language skills in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), but little work addresses the ramifications of this relationship for professionals who teach motor skills to this population. Within a motor skills intervention, this study probed the importance of language skills for motor…

Barger, Brian; Rice, Catherine; Benevides, Teal; Salmon, Ashley; Sanchez-Alvarez, Sonia; Crimmins, Daniel – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
National Surveys of Children's Health (NSCH, 2016-2018) data were analyzed to determine if conjoint monitoring and screening showed stronger associations with children under 5 identified with ASD compared to monitoring alone, screening alone or no monitoring or screening; and investigate relationships between monitoring and screening across…

Schaeffer, Jeannette; Durrleman, Stephanie; Eigsti, Inge-Marie – Language Acquisition: A Journal of Developmental Linguistics, 2021
This Special Issue on linguistic and cognitive development in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) arose from the 42nd Boston University Conference on Language Development (BUCLD) (2017), when Jeannette Schaeffer, Stephanie Durrleman, and Inge-Marie Eigsti organized a symposium on this topic. It shows that the study of language development…

Rubenstein, Eric; Young, Jessica C.; Croen, Lisa A.; DiGuiseppi, Carolyn; Dowling, Nicole F.; Lee, Li-Ching; Schieve, Laura; Wiggins, Lisa D.; Daniels, Julie – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Opioid use during pregnancy is associated with suboptimal pregnancy outcomes. Little is known about child neurodevelopmental outcomes. We examined associations between maternal opioid prescriptions preconception to delivery (peri-pregnancy) and child's risk of ASD, developmental delay/disorder (DD) with no ASD features, or ASD/DD with autism…

Ford, Andrea L. B.; Fleury, Veronica P. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2021
Researchers seeking to make valid conclusions about engagement for young children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) must first determine the reliability of estimates obtained across the conditions sampled. Working from that premise, we conducted a secondary data analysis of shared book readings between caregivers and their children with ASD,…

Chang, Jung-Chi; Lai, Meng-Chuan; Tai, Yueh-Ming; Gau, Susan Shur-Fen – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Cross-sectional research has demonstrated the overrepresentation of gender dysphoria in children and adults with autism spectrum disorder. However, the predictors and underlying mechanisms of this co-occurrence remain unclear. This follow-up study aimed to explore baseline (childhood/adolescence) predictors for the follow-up (adulthood)…

Montallana, Khrystle L.; Gard, Brendan M.; Lotfizadeh, Amin D.; Poling, Alan – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
We determined inter-rater agreement for the VB-MAPP, an instrument sometimes used in planning educational goals and evaluating intervention effects for young people with autism. A pair of raters independently rated each of 32 children diagnosed with autism. Intraclass correlation coefficients for the total Milestones and Barrier scores were 0.876…

Grimes, David Robert; Bishop, Dorothy V. M. – Child Development, 2018
Exposure to nonionizing radiation used in wireless communication remains a contentious topic in the public mind--while the overwhelming scientific evidence to date suggests that microwave and radio frequencies used in modern communications are safe, public apprehension remains considerable. A recent article in "Child Development" has…

Fleury, Veronica P.; Lease, Erin M. – Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, 2018
In this pilot study, we describe emergent literacy skills and factors related to literacy for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). A total of 38 parents and their children (n = 18 with ASD; n = 20 typically developing) participated in this study. Our analyses revealed great variability in emergent literacy performance across the ASD…

Bontinck, Chloè; Warreyn, Petra; Demurie, Ellen; Bruyneel, Eva; Boterberg, Sofie; Roeyers, Herbert – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
This study compared sibling interactions between 24-month-old children and their older sibling with ASD (high-risk; n = 24) with 24-month-old children and their typically developing older sibling (low-risk; n = 32). First, high-risk sibling pairs showed lower levels of positive behaviour and younger siblings of children with ASD imitated their…

Becerra-Culqui, Tracy A.; Lynch, Frances L.; Owen-Smith, Ashli A.; Spitzer, Joseph; Croen, Lisa A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
Specific developmental concerns can distinguish between an early versus later diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Caregiver survey responses of children = 9 years-of-age (2012) with ASD were used to evaluate developmental concerns and associations with age of diagnosis [early (< 3 years: n = 106) vs. later (= 3 years: n = 432)] using…

We examined associations between child body mass index at 2-5 years and maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index, gestational weight gain, and rapid weight gain during infancy in children with autism spectrum disorder, developmental delays, or population controls. The Study to Explore Early Development is a multi-site case-control study of children,…

This article examines early developmental histories of learners who attended a government-funded school for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in South Africa from 1992 to 2014. A total of 141 complete historical admission records of learners were analysed. Frequencies, means and correlations were determined for perinatal conditions and…
