Individuals with Sex Chromosome Trisomies (SCT; XXX, XXY, XYY) have an increased vulnerability for developing challenges in social adaptive functioning. The present study investigates social interaction behavior in the context of varying social load, and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) symptomatology in young children aged 1-7.5 years old, with SCT…

Many neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) share common learning and behavioural impairments, as well as features such as dysregulation of the oxytocin hormone. Here, we examined DNA methylation (DNAm) in the 1st intron of the oxytocin receptor gene, "OXTR," in patients with autism spectrum (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity (ADHD)…

Gallant, Caitlyn; Good, Dawn – Journal of Mental Health Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2023
Introduction: Compared to their neurotypical peers, children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDs) experience worse mental health outcomes, including greater service use and functional impairment. Few studies, however, have examined the neurodevelopmental contributions to mental health complexity among those seeking…

Sara Rose Vetter – ProQuest LLC, 2023
Teachers are often some of the first adults who suspect that a child is exhibiting symptoms of Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Much research suggests that teachers must be knowledgeable about ADHD to best make referral decisions that can positively affect the outcomes for children with the disorder, but to date, little research…

Temple, Valerie; Cook, Jocelynn L.; Unsworth, Kathy; Roberts, Nicole – Journal of Mental Health Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 2021
Introduction: There is significant symptom overlap between fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD), which results from prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE), and autism spectrum disorder (ASD). There is also limited research regarding the comorbidity of these disorders. Method: Thirty-nine individuals with ASD and PAE (ASD+PAE) aged 3 to 30 years were…

Neufeld, Janina; Hederos Eriksson, Lisa; Hammarsten, Richard; Lundin Remnélius, Karl; Tillmann, Julian; Isaksson, Johan; Bölte, Sven – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Atypical sensory processing is prevalent across neurodevelopmental conditions and a key diagnostic criterion of autism spectrum disorder. It may have cascading effects on the development of adaptive functions. However, its unique contribution to adaptive functioning and the genetic/environmental influences on this link are unclear. In a clinically…

McQuaid, Goldie A.; Pelphrey, Kevin A.; Bookheimer, Susan Y.; Dapretto, Mirella; Webb, Sara J.; Bernier, Raphael A.; McPartland, James C.; Van Horn, John D.; Wallace, Gregory L. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2021
Adaptive functioning, or the suite of skills essential for real-world, day-to-day functioning, includes daily living, communication, and socialization abilities. Even in the absence of co-occurring intellectual disability (IQ < 70), difficulties in adaptive functioning are prominent in autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Further, ASD individuals…

Flores, Jessica; Brake, C. Alex; Hood, Caitlyn O.; Badour, Christal L. – Journal of American College Health, 2022
Objectives: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) has been linked to risky sexual behavior (RSB). However, little is known regarding the role of impulsivity in this relation among college students. Participants: The present study examined the moderating role of impulsivity dispositions on the relation between PTSD symptoms and past-year RSB in a…

Oliveira, Katherine Simone Caires; Fontes, Déborah Ebert; Longo, Egmar; Leite, Hércules Ribeiro; Camargos, Ana Cristina Resende – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) generally have a delay in the development of motor skills when compared to typical children, however, to date, no study has investigated whether motor limitations can interfere in the participation of these children. The objectives of this study were: verify if the motor skills can explain the…

Ronkin, Emily; Tully, Erin C.; Branum-Martin, Lee; Cohen, Lindsey L.; Hall, Christine; Dilly, Laura; Tone, Erin B. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
The Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, 2nd-edition (ADOS-2) Toddler Module is the current gold-standard measure of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental condition more frequently diagnosed in toddler boys than girls. Some evidence suggests that behaviors assessed by the Toddler Module may capture an ASD phenotype that is more…

Anshu, Kumari; Nair, Ajay Kumar; Srinath, Shoba; Laxmi, T. Rao – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Early motor and sensory developmental delays precede Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) diagnosis and may serve as early indicators of ASD. The literature on sensorimotor development in animal models is sparse, male centered, and has mixed findings. We characterized early development in a prenatal valproic acid (VPA) model of ASD and found…

M.; Murphy, Clodagh M.; Daly, Eileen – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
The behavioural and cognitive difficulties of some adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may increase their risk of contact with the criminal justice system (CJS) as a potential suspect. There has been limited investigation of ASD and offending and available evidence is mixed. A retrospective review was completed of medical records of 1570…

Ahufinger, Nadia; Ferinu, Laura; Sanz-Torrent, Mònica; Andreu, Llorenç; Evans, Julia L. – International Journal of Language & Communication Disorders, 2022
Background: A growing body of work shows that children with developmental language disorder (DLD) perform poorly on statistical word learning (SWL) tasks, consistent with the predictions of the Procedural Deficit Hypothesis that predicts that procedural memory is impaired in DLD. To date, however, SWL performance has not been compared across…

In this study, we evaluated the effect of the Future Center Early Intensive Behavioral Intervention program on children's skills longitudinally by sex, age, and diagnoses as dependent variables. Sixty-seven children ages 1-6 years and diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder were followed up for 2 years in Syria. They were assessed twice across the…

Mori, Hiroyuki; Hirota, Tomoya; Monden, Rei; Takahashi, Michio; Adachi, Masaki; Nakamura, Kazuhiko – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Though autism spectrum disorder (ASD) traits are associated with depression, it is unclear if school social capital mediates their association. We examined whether school social capital mediates the association between ASD traits and depression, and moderation effect of sex on the mediation effect among adolescents in a general population sample…
