Halvorsen, Marianne Berg; Helverschou, Sissel Berge; Axelsdottir, Brynhildur; Brøndbo, Per Håkan; Martinussen, Monica – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
There is a need for more knowledge of valid and standardized measures of mental health problems among children and adolescents with intellectual disability (ID). In this study, we systematically reviewed and evaluated the psychometric properties of instruments used to assess general mental health problems in this population. Following PRISMA…

Lee, Shih-Chieh; Fu, I-Ning; Liu, Meng-Ru; Yu, Tzu-Ying; Chen, Kuan-Lin – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
The Theory of Mind Inventory-2 (ToMI-2) is a promising measure for assessing theory of mind (ToM) and social-related functions. However, limited evidence on its factorial validity hampers score interpretation. To examine the factorial validity, confirmatory factor analysis for two currently-available structures was performed in 420 typically…

Thomas, Rebecca P.; Wittke, Kacie; Blume, Jessica; Mastergeorge, Ann M.; Naigles, Letitia – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
This longitudinal study examined the degree to which standardized measures of language and natural language samples predicted later language usage in a heterogeneous sample of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), and how this relationship is impacted by ASD severity and interventions. Participants with a diagnosis of ASD (N = 54, 41…

Chezan, Laura C.; Liu, Jin; Drasgow, Erik; Ding, Ruyi; Magana, Alexandro – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Our purpose in this study was to further examine the psychometric properties of the Quality of Life for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (QOLASD-C) scale. We first investigated the factor structure and the internal consistency of the scale. The bifactor model showed good fit and strong reliability. Second, we used multiple-indicators…

Lawley, Grace O.; Bedrick, Steven; MacFarlane, Heather; Dolata, Jill K.; Salem, Alexandra C.; Fombonne, Eric – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Pragmatic language difficulties, including unusual filler usage, are common among children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). This study investigated "um" and "uh" usage in children with ASD and typically developing (TD) controls. We analyzed transcribed Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule (ADOS) sessions for 182 children…

Todd, James Torrence; Bahrick, Lorraine E. – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2023
Children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) show atypical attention, particularly for social events. The new Multisensory Attention Assessment Protocol (MAAP) assesses fine-grained individual differences in attention disengagement, maintenance, and audiovisual matching for social and nonsocial events. We investigated the role of competing…

Dubé, Céleste; Olivier, Elizabeth; Morin, Alexandre J. S.; Tracey, Danielle; Craven, Rhonda G.; Maïano, Christophe – Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 2022
This study proposes a multi-informant (youth, teachers, and parents) measure of relationship quality with adults for youth with intellectual disabilities (ID). A sample of 395 youth with mild (49.15%) and moderate (50.85%) ID, aged 11-22 (M = 15.82) was recruited in Canada (French-speaking, N = 142), and Australia (English-speaking, N = 253).…
