Muething, Colin S.; Falcomata, Terry S.; Ferguson, Raechal; Swinnea, Samantha; Shpall, Cayenne – Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis, 2018
Children with autism spectrum disorder and other developmental disabilities often exhibit invariant responding (i.e., restricted behavioral repertoires), deficits in communication, and challenging behavior. Approaches demonstrated in the basic and applied literature to increase response variability include extinction, lag schedules of…

Oxley, Laura – Psychology of Education Review, 2018
Managing behaviour in schools is a key consideration for senior school leaders. It is a topic that often draws attention in the media and is a major cause of stress for teaching staff. The case study reported in this article forms the pilot study for a larger piece of PhD research which includes interviews with senior school leaders from around…

Fanti, Kostas A.; Kyranides, Melina N.; Petridou, Maria; Demetriou, Chara A.; Georgiou, Giorgos – Developmental Psychology, 2018
Evidence from physiological studies has been integral in many causal theories of behavioral and emotional problems. However, this evidence is hampered by the heterogeneity characterizing these problems. The current study adds to prior work by identifying neuro-physiological markers associated with heterogeneity in conduct problems (CP),…

McKernan, Charlotte J.; Lucas-Thompson, Rachel G. – Developmental Psychology, 2018
Although negative interparental conflict predicts elevated externalizing problems for children, there are individual differences in this association. Theoretically, children's abilities to coordinate physiological stress across response systems moderate the effects of interparental conflict on developmental outcomes. Past cross-sectional research…

H.; Pasco, Greg; Pickles, Andrew; Tucker, Leslie; Volein, Agnes – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2018
Cognitive and adaptive behaviour abilities early in life provide important clinical prognostic information. We examined stability of such skills in children at high familial risk for ASD who either met diagnostic criteria for ASD at age 7 years (HR-ASD, n = 15) or did not (HR-non-ASD, n = 24) and low-risk control children (LR, n = 37),…

Fried, Leanne; Vithiatharan, Rena; Davis, Elizabeth; Jones, Tim; Hancock, Kirsten; Runions, Kevin; Cross, Donna; Payne, Donald; Jones, Caleb; Wright, Arthur; Pieterse, Debbie; Knowles, Joy; Clarke, Julie; Lin, Ashleigh – Issues in Educational Research, 2018
Children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) spend a significant portion of their day at school. It is therefore important that schools provide a safe and flexible environment for disease management and psychosocial support. Little is known of the school experiences of children and adolescents with T1D in Western Australia. The aim of this…

Gershoff, Elizabeth T.; Sattler, Kierra M. P.; Ansari, Arya – Grantee Submission, 2018
Establishing causal links when experiments are not feasible is an important challenge for psychology researchers. The question of whether parents' spanking causes children's externalizing behavior problems poses such a challenge because randomized experiments of spanking are unethical, and correlational studies cannot rule out potential selection…

Heather Geddes – International Journal of Nurture in Education, 2018
Many children are underachieving in schools and some are presenting very difficult behaviours that challenge and stress the teacher and affect the measures of school achievement. The purpose of this paper is to summarise the research findings reported in 'Attachment in the Classroom' (Geddes, 2006) with the aim to inform and support teaching…

Lundqvist, Lars-Olov; Hultqvist, Jenny; Granvik, Eva; Minton, Lennart; Ahlström, Gerd – Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2020
Background: Problem behaviours are common among people with intellectual disabilities (ID), but psychometrically evaluated instruments for assessing such behaviours are scarce. The present study evaluated the psychometric properties of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory--Intellectual Disability (NPI-ID). Method: We assessed 108 residents with…

Cheung, Yvonne; Man Kit Cheung, Ambrose; Ho Yan Luk, Eunice; Man Fung, Yiu; Mountjoy, Toby; Cihon, Joseph H.; Leaf, Justin B. – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2020
There has been rapid growth in the number of behavior analysts and interventionists in the world today. With this growth it is imperative to ensure that each behavior analyst and interventionist receives quality training. The training should be comprehensive (i.e. training multiple areas of behavior analysis) and should not conclude until the…

Hartas, Dimitra; Kuscuoglu, Ahmet – British Journal of Special Education, 2020
This article draws on the Millennium Cohort Study (MCS) to examine parent ratings of social, emotional and behavioural difficulties and prosocial behaviour in pre- and mid-adolescents. A series of mixed-design ANOVAs yielded interesting results. Parent ratings of emotional difficulties in girls increased as they moved from pre- to mid-adolescence…

South, M.; Beck, J. S.; Lundwall, R.; Christensen, M.; Cutrer, E. A.; Gabrielsen, T. P.; Cox, J. C.; Lundwall, R. A. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2020
Understanding the cognitive and emotional mechanisms that link autistic traits and risk for suicide is a vital next step for research and clinical practice. This study included a broad sample of adult women (n = 74) who report finding social situations confusing and/or exhausting, and who score high on measures of autistic traits. Regardless of…

Chaffee, Ruth K.; Briesch, Amy M.; Volpe, Robert J.; Johnson, Austin H.; Dudley, Laura – Behavioral Disorders, 2020
Class-wide behavioral interventions are a feasible and effective method to support the behavior of all students. In six peer-reviewed studies, Tootling, a class-wide intervention that combines positive peer reporting with an interdependent group contingency, has increased positive peer reports and academically engaged behavior (AEB), and decreased…

Williford, Amanda P.; Vitiello, Virginia E. – School Psychology, 2020
Most research examining teacher-child interactions focuses on how aspects of the teacher influence children's skills and development. However, teachers report that children who display disruptive behaviors negatively impact their practice. In this study, we examined the within-day reciprocal associations between teachers' interaction quality at…
