Although, the operationalization of the autism spectrum disorder has been updated around two domains, the broad autism phenotype (BAP) one has not. Additionally, the items of the three common BAP measures, the Broad Autism Phenotype Questionnaire (BAPQ), the Autism Quotient, and the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), remain organized around a…

Petruccelli, Marisa; Ramella, Leah; Schaefer, Ana J.; Sheldrick, R. Christopher; Carter, Alice S.; Eisenhower, Abbey; Broder-Fingert, Sarabeth; Mackie, Thomas I. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) report on screening for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) highlighted the need for research that examines the harms potentially associated with screening so as to assess the overall net benefit of universal screening. In response, this study engages qualitative, semi-structured interviews to generate a…

Mujeeb Rahman, K. K.; Monica Subashini, M. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an abnormal condition of brain development characterized by impaired cognitive ability, speech and human interactions, in addition to a set of repetitive and stereotyped patterns of behaviours. Although no cure for autism exists, early medical intervention can improve the associated symptoms and quality of life.…

Banaschewski, Tobias; Bruni, Oliviero; Fuentes, Joaquin; Hill, Catherine Mary; Hvolby, Allan; Posserud, Maj-Britt; Schroder, Carmen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Between 50-80% of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) have insomnia, which adversely affects their mental and physical health. However, there is no consensus to-date on suitable tools for insomnia screening and monitoring in daily clinical practice. An expert panel of child neuropsychiatry and sleep specialists, with expertise in children…

DuBay, Michaela; Watson, Linda R.; Baranek, Grace T.; Lee, Helen; Rojevic, Carolina; Brinson, William; Smith, Danna; Sideris, John – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Screening tools for autism spectrum disorders serve a vital role in early identification of all children who may need evaluation and support. Recent studies suggest that traditional methods used in this field to translate such tools may be insufficient for maintaining linguistic, construct, or technical equivalence, resulting in screening tools…

Groot, Iuno Z.; Lever, Anne G.; Koolschijn, P. Cédric; Geurts, Hilde M. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
By comparing 51 autistic adults and 49 age-matched controls (aged 30-73 years) we tested if (1) the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) is more sensitive in measuring cognitive impairments than the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and (2) if we can replicate the MoCA-findings of Powell et al. (2017) with the Dutch MoCA(-NL). Results showed…

Russell, Ian; Pearson, Beth; Masic, Una – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Literature has documented inflated rates of features associated with autism spectrum (AS) in clinic referred, gender diverse young people. This study examined scores on the Social Responsiveness Scale, Second Edition (SRS-2) over time in a group of clinic referred, gender diverse adolescents accessing gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogues…

Fombonne, Eric; MacFarlane, Heather; Salem, Alexandra C. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Recent worldwide epidemiological surveys of autism conducted in 37 countries are reviewed; the median prevalence of autism is 0.97% in 26 high-income countries. Methodological advances and remaining challenges in designing and executing surveys are discussed, including the effects on prevalence of variable case definitions and nosography, of…

Colvert, Emma; Simonoff, Emily; Capp, Simone J.; Ronald, Angelica; Bolton, Patrick; Happé, Francesca – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
There is increasing concern regarding additional psychiatric problems that co-occur with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), as reflected in recent changes to diagnostic schemes. However, there remains little research with population-based samples across childhood. We report on additional problems, as measured by the Strengths and Difficulties…

Hickey, Emily; Sheldrick, R. Christopher; Kuhn, Jocelyn; Broder-Fingert, Sarabeth – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
In 2016, the US Preventive Services Task Force concluded that there was "insufficient" ("I" statement) evidence to support universal primary care screening for autism spectrum disorder. The statement led to controversy among research and clinical communities. Although a number of papers have since been published arguing for the…

Choueiri, Roula; Lindenbaum, Asher; Ravi, Manasa; Robsky, William; Flahive, Julie; Garrison, William – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
The objective of this study was to test a screening model that employs the Rapid Interactive Screening Test for Autism in Toddlers (RITA-T), in an underserved community to improve ASD detection. We collaborated with a large Early Intervention (EI) program and trained 4 providers reliably on the RITA-T. Toddlers received the Modified Checklist for…

Parikh, Chandni; Iosif, Ana-Maria; Ozonoff, Sally – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Few studies have explored autism spectrum disorder (ASD) screening in the first year of life. The current investigation examines the psychometric properties of the Infant-Toddler Checklist starting in the first year of life in a sample at elevated and average risk for ASD based on family history. 283 participants were followed from 6 to 36 months,…

Most children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), in resource-limited settings (RLS), are diagnosed after the age of four. Our work confirmed and extended results of Pierce that eye tracking could discriminate between typically developing (TD) children and those with ASD. We demonstrated the initial 15 s was at least as discriminating as the…

Incremental Utility of 24-Month Autism Spectrum Disorder Screening after Negative 18-Month Screening
Dai, Yael G.; Miller, Lauren E.; Ramsey, Riane K.; Robins, Diana L.; Fein, Deborah A.; Dumont-Mathieu, Thyde – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) screening at 18 and 24 months. However, utility of rescreening at 24 months, after a negative 18-month screening, remains unknown. We identified cases of ASD detected at 24 months after a negative 18-month screening (i.e., Catch-24 group; n = 10) and compared them to…

Vermeirsch, Julie; Verhaeghe, Liedewij; Casaer, Alexandra; Faes, Fran; Oostra, Ann; Roeyers, Herbert – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
This study estimated ASD prevalence in a cohort of 3-year-old very preterm children (N = 55) and investigated the usefulness of parent-reported ASD screeners and the ADOS-2. 12.7% received an ASD diagnosis by clinical judgment based on DSM-5 criteria. An additional 14.5% were classified as having a broader-autism-phenotype outcome. Sensitivity…
