Direct linkChetcuti, Lacey; Richdale, Amanda L.; Haschek, Alexandra; Uljarevic, Mirko; Lawson, Lauren P. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Studies of the general population suggest that the risk for mental health difficulties conferred by dispositional behavioural inhibition (BI) may be modified by self-regulation; however, this possibility has not been explored in the context of autism. This study investigated the moderating effects of attentional-, activation-, and inhibitory…

Linn Andersson Konke; Terje Falck-Ytter; Emily J. H. Jones; Amy Goodwin; Karin Brocki – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2024
The purpose of the current study was to use the infant sibling design to explore whether proband traits of autism and ADHD could provide information about their infant sibling's temperament. This could help us to gain information about the extent to which infant temperament traits are differentially associated with autism and ADHD traits. We used…

De Clercq, Lana E.; Dieleman, Lisa M.; van der Kaap-Deeder, Jolene; Soenens, Bart; Prinzie, Peter; De Pauw, Sarah S. W. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
This nine-year longitudinal study addresses the joint contribution of parent-rated negative controlling parenting and child personality on psychosocial outcomes in 141 families of children with autism spectrum disorder (83% boys, mean age Time 1 = 10.1). Latent change modeling revealed substantial variation in within-person change in parenting and…

L.; Pike, G. B.; Fonov, V.; Kostopoulos, P.; Das, S.; Gerig, G.; Styner, M.; Gu, H. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
The present study investigated the relationship between infant temperament characteristics and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) risk status. Temperament was examined at 6, 12, and 24 months in 282 infants at high familial risk for ASD and 114 low-risk controls using the Infant Behavior Questionnaire-Revised and Early Childhood Behavior…

Burrows, Catherine A.; Usher, Lauren V.; Schwartz, Caley B.; Mundy, Peter C.; Henderson, Heather A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2016
This study tested the "spectrum hypothesis," which posits that children and adolescents with high functioning autism (HFA) differ "quantitatively" but not "qualitatively" from typically developing peers on self-reported temperament. Temperament refers to early-appearing, relatively stable behavioral and emotional…

Hesselmark, Eva; Eriksson, Jonna M.; Westerlund, Joakim; Bejerot, Susanne – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2015
Although self-reported measures are frequently used to assess adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), the validity of self-reports is under-researched in ASD. The core symptoms of ASD may negatively affect the psychometric properties of self-reported measures. The aim of the present study was to test the validity and reliability of…

May, Richard J.; Hawkins, Emma; Dymond, Simon – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2013
The present study evaluated the emergence of intraverbal responses following tact training with three adolescents diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders. Participants were taught to tact the name of a cartoon character (e.g., "What is the name of this monster?" ["Simon"]) and that character's preferred food (e.g., "What food does this monster…

Leyfer, Ovsanna; John, Angela E.; Woodruff-Borden, Janet; Mervis, Carolyn B. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2012
To examine the factor structure of temperament in 5-10-year-olds with Williams syndrome, an exploratory factor analysis was conducted on the responses of parents of 192 children on the children's behavior questionnaire. Four factors were identified. Two corresponded to factors reported for typically developing children: effortful control and…

Hurst, Ruth M.; Nelson-Gray, Rosemery O.; Mitchell, John T.; Kwapil, Thomas R. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2007
The study examines the relationship between Asperger's Disorder (AD) and Schizotypal Personality Disorder (SPD), mutually exclusive but similar diagnoses ["DSM-IV-TR;" American Psychiatric Association (2000). "Diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders." Washington, DC: Author]. The literature and comparison of…

Konstantareas, M. Mary; Stewart, Kelly – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2006
Affect regulation (AR) and temperament were examined in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). To determine AR, children were exposed to a mildly frustrating situation. Temperament was assessed by the Children's Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ). Children with ASD showed greater variability in AR and used less effective AR strategies compared to…

Peer reviewedBailey, Donald B., Jr.; Hatton, Deborah D.; Mesibov, Gary; Ament, Nicole; Skinner, Martie – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2000
This study compared the developmental status, functional abilities, and temperaments of 31 young (36 to 95 months) boys with fragile X syndrome (FXS) who did not have autism, matched on chronological age, gender, and race, with 31 boys with autism but no FXS. Overall, the boys with autism exhibited a more variable profile of development than did…

Using Carey Temperament Scales to Assess Behavioral Style in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders
Hepburn, Susan L.; Stone, Wendy L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2006
Many researchers have suggested that temperament information could be useful for understanding the behavioral variability within the autism spectrum. The purpose of this brief report is to examine temperament profiles of 110 children with ASD (ages 3-8 years, 61 with Autistic Disorder, 42 with PDD-NOS; and 7 with Asperger Disorder) via a commonly…

Thede, Linda L.; Coolidge, Frederick L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2007
This study investigated personality and neurobehavioral differences between 16 children with Asperger's Disorder, 15 children with High-Functioning Autism (HFA), and 31 controls, all ranging in age from 5-17 years, M age = 10.7 years, SD = 3.0. Parents rated their children's behaviors on a 44-item autistic symptoms survey and on the 200-item…

Hodapp, Robert M. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2004
Different genetic disorders predispose individuals to display specific, etiology-related profiles, personalities, and maladaptive behaviors. Using groups with genetic etiologies as stand-ins or proxies for a specific behavior or set of behaviors, one can then examine how others in the child's environment react and whether such reactions are…

The maladaptive behaviors, personality, and language skills of a male whose chromosome analysis showed evidence of mosaicism with karyotype 49,XXXXY and 48,XXXY are described. Research on severity of mental handicap with extra chromosomes, delayed speech development, and discrepancy between verbal and performance intelligence is examined. (JDD)
