Restricted interests and repetitive behaviors (RRBs) are core symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and commonly occur in attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Little is known about how RRBs manifest in ADHD. We quantified and compared factor structures of RRBs in children with ASD (n = 634) or ADHD (n = 448), and related factors…

Syriopoulou-Delli, Christine K.; Gkiolnta, Eleni – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2022
The use of socially assistive robotics (SARs) is a promising method for improving the social skills of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Studies conducted in this field in recent years show that the use of robots as collaborators may have positive effects on the development of social skills in children with ASD, especially in those…

Krombach, Trish; Miltenberger, Raymond – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Children with ASD often display behavior problems that can lead to academic and social disruptions. This has led to the introduction of stability balls as an alternative seating method for children, both on the autism spectrum and with other needs. This study used a multiple baseline design and duration data to evaluate the effects of stability…

Kawaoka, Naomi; Ohashi, Kei; Fukuhara, Satomi; Miyachi, Taishi; Asai, Tomoko; Imaeda, Masayuki; Saitoh, Shinji – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
In March 2020, many schools were closed to prevent the spread of COVID-19 in Japan, and it is predicted that many children, especially those with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs), will be affected emotionally and behaviorally. Here, we examined the impact of school closures due to COVID-19 on school-aged children with NDDs using the Child…

DaWalt, Leann Smith; Fielding-Gebhardt, Heather; Fleming, Kandace K.; Warren, Steven F.; Brady, Nancy – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
In this study, we examined trajectories of specific domains of behavior problems (i.e., attention problems, depression/anxiety, and aggressive behavior) from age 6 to 18 in a sample of 55 children with fragile X syndrome. We also examined autism status and early parenting as predictors of subsequent behavioral trajectories. We found that attention…

Faja, Susan; Clarkson, Tessa; Gilbert, Rachel; Vaidyanathan, Akshita; Greco, Gabriella; Rueda, M. Rosario; Combita, Lina M.; Driscoll, Kate – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
This randomized, controlled study examined the initial efficacy of an executive function training program for children with autism spectrum disorder. Seventy 7- to 11 year-olds with autism spectrum disorder and intelligence quotients [greater than or equal to]80 were randomly assigned to receive a web-based set of executive function training games…

Waddington, Hannah; Reynolds, Jess E; Macaskill, Ella; Curtis, Sally; Taylor, Lauren J; Whitehouse, Andrew JO – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Naturalistic developmental behavioural interventions are promising approaches for young children with, or suspected of having, autism spectrum disorder. Joint attention, symbolic play, engagement and regulation intervention (JASPER) is a well-researched naturalistic developmental behavioural intervention but, to date, no reviews have specifically…

Rosello, Rocio; Martinez-Raga, Jose; Mira, Alvaro; Pastor, Juan Carlos; Solmi, Marco; Cortese, Samuele – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is one of the most common comorbidities in individuals with autism spectrum disorder. However, the clinical implications of the co-occurrence of these two disorders are still poorly understood. Based on a preregistered protocol (PROSPERO CRD42020193880), this systematic review identified 34 articles,…

Nucifora, Alice; Walker, Sue – Journal of Research in Special Educational Needs, 2021
Research suggests that a childhood diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is associated with poorer teacher-child relationship quality and higher rates of externalising behaviours. It is proposed that the socio-emotional problems experienced by those children with ASD and/or ADHD lead to poor…

Rosenbloom, Raia; Wills, Howard P.; Mason, Rose; Huffman, Jonathan M.; Mason, Benjamin A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) often present with difficulty in sustaining engagement, attention, and have disruptive behavior in classroom settings. Without appropriate intervention, these challenging behaviors often persist and negatively impact educational outcomes. Self-monitoring is a well-supported evidence-based practice…

Many neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) share common learning and behavioural impairments, as well as features such as dysregulation of the oxytocin hormone. Here, we examined DNA methylation (DNAm) in the 1st intron of the oxytocin receptor gene, "OXTR," in patients with autism spectrum (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity (ADHD)…

Benson, Jeryl D.; Morgus, Kristen; Donoso Brown, Elena; Smitsky, Deborah – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2019
Objective: The purpose of this pilot study was to determine the effects of alternate seating on increasing the attention and in-seat behaviors of preschoolers with autism. Method: This study used a single subject, A-B-A-B design across a convenience sample of four preschoolers with ASD. During baseline phases (A), participants used the floor;…

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are often comorbid. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationships between ASD and ADHD symptoms by applying causal modeling. We used a large phenotypic data set of 417 children with ASD and/or ADHD, 562 affected and unaffected siblings, and 414 controls,…

Lee, James D.; Meadan, Hedda; Xia, Yan – Journal of Positive Behavior Interventions, 2022
Challenging behavior exhibited by young children with neurodevelopmental disabilities is known to negatively affect their optimal development and families' quality of life. Although some support exists for English-speaking parents of children with autism who live in high-resource countries, it is scarce for others. Such disparity may also be…

Mira, Álvaro; Berenguer, Carmen; Roselló, Belén; Baixauli, Inmaculada; Miranda, Ana – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2022
This study aimed to identify different profiles of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) without intellectual disability (ID) and maternal factors characteristic of these profiles. Participants were 89 children between 7 and 11 years old and their mothers, distributed in two groups, 52 children with ASD and 37 with typical development (TD).…
