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…

Mastergeorge, Ann M.; Kahathuduwa, Chanaka; Blume, Jessica – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
Eye-tracking represents a sensitive, direct measure of gaze allocation and goal-directed looking behaviors that correspond to visual information processing. Clear definitions and standardization of research protocols to document the utility and feasibility of these methods are warranted. This systematic review provides an account of stimuli…

Sacrey, Lori-Ann R.; Zwaigenbaum, Lonnie; Bryson, Susan; Brian, Jessica; Smith, Isabel M.; Roberts, Wendy; Szatmari, Peter; Vaillancourt, Tracy; Roncadin, Caroline; Garon, Nancy – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
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…

van 't Hof, Maarten; van Nieuwenhuyzen, Annemyn D. Y.; van Berckelaer-Onnes, Ina; Deen, Mathijs; Hoek, Hans W.; Ester, Wietske A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2021
We investigated the effect of a live online educational program in 93 Dutch Youth and Family Center (YFC) physicians who were screening for Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in the general child population. The educational program raised the physicians' level of specific ASD knowledge and it remained higher at six months follow-up (p < 0.01).…

Dolata, Jill K.; Sanford-Keller, Hannah; Squires, Jane – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2020
Objective: Broadband social-emotional screening tools are designed to evaluate a child's social development and interactions. Such tools are expected to have reasonable sensitivity for identifying children at risk for autism spectrum disorder (ASD) but would also likely over-estimate risk for ASD since other conditions can also affect social…

Stainbrook, J. Alacia; Weitlauf, Amy S.; Juárez, A. Pablo; Taylor, Julie Lounds; Hine, Jeffrey; Broderick, Neill; Nicholson, Amy; Warren, Zachary – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2019
As prevalence of autism spectrum disorder continues to increase, so too does the need for timely, accessible diagnostic consultation. The present work extends from a previous study which provided preliminary evidence for the feasibility of expert clinicians to utilize telemedicine to triage autism spectrum disorder risk in young children. However,…

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).

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…

Yuen, Tracy; Carter, Melissa T.; Szatmari, Peter; Ungar, Wendy J. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends universal screening for autism spectrum disorder at 18 and 24 months. This study compared the cost-effectiveness of universal or high-risk screening to surveillance monitoring. Simulation models estimated the costs and outcomes from birth to age 6 years. The incremental cost per child diagnosed by…

Wu, Chin-Chin; Chiang, Chung-Hsin; Hou, Yuh-Ming; Chu, Ching-Lin; Liu, Jiun-Horng – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2019
Background: The Taiwan version of the Screening Tool for Autism in Two-Year-Olds (T-STAT) had been developed for identifying autism disorder (AD) in children aged 24-35 months. Two studies were performed to elucidate its utility for AD in children aged 36-48 months. Method: In Study 1, the receiver operating characteristics were utilised to select…
