Woodard, Cooper R.; Harmony, Colin; Groden, June; Audet, Kristen – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Past research suggests that stress and anxiety are more prevalent in persons with autism as compared to typically developing persons. The Stress Survey Schedule (SSS) was developed in 2001 as a means to measure stressors common to persons with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The present study compared SSS responses of a sample of students…

Gal, Eynat; Gal-Mishael, Rotem; Vissoker, Roni Enten; Hedley, Darren; Bury, Simon M.; Stolar, Orit – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
The Aut-Eat Questionnaire (AEQ) provides a novel and comprehensive assessment of eating problems and patterns in children with ASD. To establish the internal consistency and discriminant validity of the AEQ, parents of children with ASD (n = 105, M[subscript age] = 40.85, SD = 15.67 months) or typical development (TD; n = 98, M[subscript age] =…

Van Damme, Tine; Vancampfort, Davy; Thoen, Anoushka; Sanchez, Carlos Pelayo Ramos; Van Biesen, Debbie – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Although motor problems are highly prevalent in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), they remain underdiagnosed. Questionnaire-based screening for motor problems could optimize current clinical practice. This study aimed to examine the psychometric properties of the developmental coordination disorder questionnaire (DCDQ) to screen for…

McVey, Alana J.; Schiltz, Hillary K.; Coffman, Marika; Antezana, Ligia; Magnus, Brooke – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
Emotion dysregulation is common among autistic people, yet few measures have received psychometric evaluation in this population. We examined the factor structure, reliability, and validity of a commonly-used measure of emotion dysregulation, the "Difficulties with Emotion Regulation Scale" ("DERS"), in a sample of 156 autistic…

For individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), behavioral inflexibility can affect multiple domains of functioning and family life. The objective of this study was to develop and validate a clinical interview version of the Behavioral Inflexibility Scale. Trained interviewers conducted interviews with parents of 144 children with ASD and 70…

Prior work proposed a shortened version of the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS), a commonly used quantitative measure of social communication traits. We used data from 3031 participants (including 190 ASD cases) from the Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program to compare distributional properties and criterion validity of…

Cetinoglu, Elif; Aras, Sahbal – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
We assessed the reliability and validity of the Turkish version of the autism spectrum quotient (AQ)-adolescent. Three assessment groups of adolescents, aged 11-18, were: 80 with Asperger syndrome/high-functioning autism (AS/HFA), 71 with other psychiatric disorders (PDs; 35 major depression, 18 obsessive-compulsive disorder, 18 social phobia),…

Kodak, Tiffany; Bergmann, Samantha; Cordeiro, Maria Clara; Bamond, Meredith; Isenhower, Robert W.; Fiske, Kate E. – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2022
Auditory-visual conditional discrimination training (e.g., receptive identification training, listener responses; AVCD) is ubiquitous in early intervention and special education programs. Nevertheless, some learners with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) do not appear to benefit from this training despite use of empirically validated treatments. To…

The early recognition of ASD in adults is challenging, in particular due to the lack of appropriate and robust diagnostic tools. We performed a psychometric validation and diagnostic accuracy study of the French version of the RAADS-R on a sample of 305 adults: 105 with ASD without ID, 99 with psychiatric disorders, and 103 non-psychiatric control…

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…
