Peer reviewed
Direct linkKlusek, Jessica; O'Connor, Shannon L.; Hickey, Alexandra; Hills, Kimberly J.; Abbeduto, Leonard; Roberts, Jane E. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2022
This study characterized the rates of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adolescent and young adult males with fragile X syndrome (FXS) using a multi-method approach integrating a DSM-based parent interview (Children's Interview for Psychiatric Syndromes; P-ChIPS, Fristad et al., 1998) and a parent rating scale (Child Behavior…

Courtemanche, Andrea B.; Black, William R.; Meyer, Jerrold S. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2021
Elevated salivary cortisol levels have been documented in individuals who engage in self-injurious behavior (SIB), indicating acute physiological stress. Less is known about the chronicity of stress and SIB. We analyzed the relationship between parent ratings of problem behavior and hair cortisol concentrations (an index of chronic adrenocortical…

Tonnsen, Bridgette L.; Boan, Andrea D.; Bradley, Catherine C.; Charlest, Jane; Cohen, Amy; Carpenter, Laura A. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2016
Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) often co-occur with intellectual disability (ID) and are associated with poorer psychosocial and family-related outcomes than ID alone. The present study examined the prevalence, stability, and characteristics of ASD estimates in 2,208 children with ASD and ID identified through the South Carolina Autism and…

Courtemanche, Andrea B.; Black, William R.; Reese, R. Matthew – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2016
Research has suggested that individuals who engage in self-injurious behavior may have enhanced expressions of pain, which contradicts previous assertions of blunted pain sensitivity in this population. The purpose of this study was to measure expressions of pain among young children being evaluated for autism and other neurodevelopmental…

Morin, Diane; Merineau-Cote, Julie; Ouellette-Kuntz, Helene; Tasse, Marc J.; Kerr, Michael – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2012
Some studies have reported the presence of health disparities in people with intellectual disability. This study compared the prevalence of chronic health conditions between people with and without intellectual disability (ID). Health-related data for 791 people with ID were collected through a province-wide mail survey in Quebec, Canada. The…

Obi, Obianuju; Braun, Kim Van Naarden; Baio, Jon; Drews-Botsch, Carolyn; Devine, Owen; Yeargin-Allsopp, Marshalyn – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2011
Surveillance and epidemiologic research on intellectual disability often do not incorporate adaptive functioning (AF) data. Exclusion of AF data leads to overestimation of the prevalence of intellectual disability, the extent of which is not known. In this study, the authors evaluated the effect of incorporating AF data on overall intellectual…
