Abstract

Purpose: Due to the difficulties in differentiating between impairments associated with intellectual disability and ASD symptomology, DS often leads to delayed or misdiagnoses of ASD.

Method: An ANOVA was run to investigate the effects of ASD risk and DS on overall developmental functioning across three groups: ASD+, DS-, and DS+ (n = 138). A MANOVA was run to investigate the differences of group on five developmental subdomains.

Results: The results revealed significant group differences in the overall developmental functioning and each developmental subdomain. Children in the DS+ group demonstrated significantly lower overall developmental functioning, as well as lower adaptive, cognitive, motor, and communication skills compared to their peers; however, children in the DS- group demonstrated significantly better social skills compared to their peers in the ASD+ group.

Discussion: These findings support the need for early screening and identification of ASD among those with DS.

目的:由于难以区分智力障碍相关的缺陷与ASD的症状，退行性椎体滑移常导致ASD的延误或误诊。方法:采用方差分析研究ASD风险和DS对ASD+、DS-和DS+三组(n = 138)整体发育功能的影响。运用方差分析分析了各组在五个发育子域上的差异。结果:结果显示各组在整体发育功能和各发育子域上存在显著差异。与同龄人相比，DS+组的儿童表现出明显较低的整体发展功能，以及较低的适应、认知、运动和沟通技能;然而，与ASD+组的同龄人相比，DS-组的孩子表现出明显更好的社交技能。讨论:这些发现支持了对退行性痴呆患者进行ASD早期筛查和识别的必要性。

期刊介绍： Developmental Neurorehabilitation aims to enhance recovery, rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, neurological disorders, and other developmental, physical and intellectual disabilities. Although there is an emphasis on childhood, developmental disability can be considered from a lifespan perspective. This perspective acknowledges that development occurs throughout a person’s life and thus a range of impairments or diseases can cause a disability that can affect development at any stage of life.
