Are There Anthropometric and Body Composition Differences between Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Children with Typical Development? Analysis by Age and Spectrum Severity in a School Population
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed

Murray, Elizabeth; Matijasevich, Alicia; Santos, Iná S.; Barros, Aluísio J. D.; Anselmi, Luciana; Barros, Fernando C.; Stein, Alan – Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 2015
Background: Recent evidence suggests that impaired foetal growth may provide an early indication of increased risk of child attention problems. However, despite both foetal growth and child attention problems differing by sex, few studies have examined sex differences in this association. Furthermore, no studies have been conducted in low- and…

A Model for Predicting Behavioural Sleep Problems in a Random Sample of Australian Pre-Schoolers
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Hall, Wendy A.; Zubrick, Stephen R.; Silburn, Sven R.; Parsons, Deborah E.; Kurinczuk, Jennifer J. – Infant and Child Development, 2007
Behavioural sleep problems (childhood insomnias) can cause distress for both parents and children. This paper reports a model describing predictors of high sleep problem scores in a representative population-based random sample survey of non-Aboriginal singleton children born in 1995 and 1996 (1085 girls and 1129 boys) in Western Australia.…

Physical and Emotional Development, Appetite and Body Image in Adolescents Who Failed to Thrive as Infants
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Drewett, R. F.; Corbett, S. S.; Wright, C. M. – Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 2006
Background: Previous studies suggest that failure to thrive in infancy may be associated with adverse sequelae in childhood. Although cognitive abilities have been extensively investigated, little systematic research is available on other aspects of development. Methods: Eighty-nine children who failed to thrive as infants and 91 controls were…
