Most autism research has been conducted in high-income countries, with participants typically from White, upper-middle-income families. Given the disparities experienced by autistic individuals living in underserved communities globally, there is a critical need for research to include individuals from culturally, linguistically,…

Wang, Li; Ong, Jia Hoong; Ponsot, Emmanuel; Hou, Qingqi; Jiang, Cunmei; Liu, Fang – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
As an information-bearing auditory attribute of sound, pitch plays a crucial role in the perception of speech and music. Studies examining pitch processing in autism spectrum disorder have produced equivocal results. To understand this discrepancy from a mechanistic perspective, we used a novel data-driven method, the reverse-correlation paradigm,…

Bolbocean, Corneliu; Rhidenour, Kayla B.; McCormack, Maria; Suter, Bernhard; Holder, J. Lloyd – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Between July 2020 and January 2021, 230 principal caregivers completed a questionnaire to measure proxy-assessed health-related quality of life outcomes (HRQoL), behavioral outcomes in children with syndromic autism spectrum disorders and COVID-19 induced changes to lifestyle and environments. HRQoL and behavioral outcomes reported earlier during…

Tint, Ami; Chung, Hannah; Lai, Meng-Chuan; Balogh, Robert; Lin, Elizabeth; Durbin, Anna; Lunsky, Yona – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
This study used administrative data to compare the socio-demographics, health conditions, and health service use of autistic adults with adults with and without other developmental disabilities, after matching for age and sex. Autistic women and men were more likely to have a wide range of physical and mental health conditions compared to adults…

Schwartzman, Jessica M.; Williams, Zachary J.; Paterson, Ann V.; Jacobs, Alexandra X.; Corbett, Blythe A. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Measurement-based care is an approach to clinical care that involves systematically evaluating patient-reported outcomes to guide clinical decision making with a strong evidence base in the general population; however, its use in autism is limited. As autistic people are more likely to be diagnosed with psychiatric disorders (e.g. depression,…

Waldron, Danielle A.; Stokes, Jeffrey; Coyle, Caitlin E.; Kramer, John; Dugan, Elizabeth – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
This study explores factors associated with participation in moderate physical activity and muscle strengthening activity in adults with autism receiving state services (age: 18-78 years). Researchers analyzed the National Core Indicators-In Person Survey (2017-2018) data using multilevel mixed effects logistic regression. Older adults on the…

Girls and boys might differ in autistic symptoms and associated cognitive difficulties such as executive function (EF). We investigated sex differences in the relationship between parent rated EF and autistic symptoms in 116 children and adolescents (25 girls) aged 5-19 years with an intelligence quotient above 70 and an autism spectrum disorder…

Miller, Haylie L.; Thomi, Morgan; Patterson, Rita M.; Nandy, Karabi – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Children with complex behavioral profiles (e.g., ASD + ADHD) may experience delays in obtaining a final diagnosis. Low-resource or underrepresented groups may be at even greater risk for delayed diagnosis. We assessed the effect of sociodemographic factors, symptom complexity and co-occurring conditions, and identifier of first symptoms on…

Milner, Victoria; Mandy, Will; Happé, Francesca; Colvert, Emma – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Many autistic individuals camouflage socially atypical behaviours. Evidence suggests autistic females camouflage more than autistic males. Although camouflaging may confer some benefits, it is also associated with negative outcomes including poorer mental health and well-being. Those with high autistic traits but no clinical diagnosis are not…

Girard, Dominique; Courchesne, Valérie; Cimon-Paquet, Catherine; Jacques, Claudine; Soulières, Isabelle – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
The current prospective cohort study investigated whether early perceptual abilities, measured at preschool age, could predict later intellectual abilities at school age in a group of 41 autistic (9 girls, 32 boys) and 57 neurotypical children (29 girls, 28 boys). More than 80% of the autistic children were considered minimally verbal.…

Pickard, Katherine; Burrell, T. Lindsey; Brasher, Susan; Buckley, Derianne; Gillespie, Scott; Sharp, William; Scahill, Lawrence – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2023
Moderate feeding problems affect many children with autism spectrum disorder and often co-occur with disruptive mealtime behaviors. Although parent-mediated interventions have shown promise to support feeding problems, research has primarily occurred within randomized controlled trials when delivered by highly trained clinicians in specialty…
