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…

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…

Mash, Lisa E.; Klein, Raymond M.; Townsend, Jeanne – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Attentional impairments are among the earliest identifiable features of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Three attention networks have been extensively studied using the attention network test (ANT), but this long and repetitive task may pose challenges for individuals with ASDs. The AttentionTrip was developed as a more engaging measure of…

Kerub, Orly; Haas, Eric J.; Meiri, Gal; Davidovitch, Nadav; Menashe, Idan – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Systematic screening of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can improve early diagnosis of ASD. We compared the efficacy of two ASD screening methods, the Global Developmental Screening (GDS), and the Modified Checklist for Autism in Toddlers-Revised, with Follow-Up (M-CHAT/F) in 1591 toddlers of ages 18-36 months from 35 government-funded clinics in…

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…

Harrison, Kimberly B.; McCredie, Morgan N.; Reddy, Madhavi K.; Krishnan, Ankita; Engstrom, Allison; Posey, Yana S.; Morey, Leslie C.; Loveland, Katherine A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Differential diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) among intellectually-able adults often presents a clinical challenge, particularly when individuals present in crisis without diagnostic history. The Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI) is a multiscale personality and psychopathology instrument utilized across clinical settings, but to…

Despite considerable progress in characterizing the early signs of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), more remains to be learned about how symptoms emerge in the first year of life. Parents with a new baby who already had at least one biological child diagnosed with ASD (high-risk) or no family history of ASD (low-risk) completed two measures when…

Sánchez-García, Ana B.; Galindo-Villardón, Purificación; Nieto-Librero, Ana B.; Martín-Rodero, Helena; Robins, Diana L. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2019
Great efforts focus on early detection of autism spectrum disorder, although some scientists and policy-makers have questioned early universal screening. The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of the different screening tools. Several electronic databases were used to identify published studies. A Bayesian model was…

Wang, Ji; Hedley, Darren; Bury, Simon M.; Barbaro, Josephine – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Screening for autism spectrum disorder is the first step toward early detection and diagnosis, thereby impacting the likelihood of children accessing early intervention and, importantly, improving long-term outcomes. This systematic review aimed to (a) establish a clear baseline of autism spectrum disorder screening tools currently used throughout…

Snijder, Michelle I. J.; Kaijadoe, Shireen P. T.; van't Hof, Maarten; Ester, Wietske A.; Buitelaar, Jan K.; Oosterling, Iris J. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
To improve early detection of autism spectrum disorder in preventive care, a Dutch guideline was developed 5 years ago. The guideline provides preventive care physicians at well-baby clinics action-oriented advice and describes a step-by-step approach for children identified at an increased risk for autism spectrum disorder during general…

Roman-Urrestarazu, Andres; Yáñez, Carolina; López-Garí, Claudia; Elgueta, Constanza; Allison, Carrie; Brayne, Carol; Troncoso, Mónica; Baron-Cohen, Simon – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Conditions (ASC) can be an extended procedure since ASC tend to both vary greatly across individual symptoms and diagnostic pathways with serious challenges to opportune access and diagnosis in low resource settings. We adapted the Q-CHAT-25 for use in a routine health check-ups programme at Chilean primary health…

Kamara, Dana; Walton, Katherine; Witwer, Andrea N. – Journal of Early Intervention, 2020
Identification of problems with socioemotional functioning is an important task in early childhood, particularly for children in early intervention (EI). However, socioemotional concerns raised by families may be under-identified in practice. In accordance with Division for Early Childhood (DEC) recommended practices, Part C providers could…

Brewer, Lisa – Journal of Occupational Therapy, Schools & Early Intervention, 2020
The average diagnosis of autism in the United States is after 4 years of age, even though a reliable diagnosis can be obtained as early as 2 years of age. Early identification of autism can help facilitate access to early intervention, yet many children experience significant delays in receiving a diagnosis and intervention. Various factors…

We investigated the clinical validity of the BADEC, an abbreviated, five-item version of the Autism Detection in Early Childhood, level-2 screening tool for autism. Initially developed by Nah et al. (2019) using a research sample, the present study replicated Nah et al. (2019) procedures in a clinical population. Using a cutoff score of five, five…
