Among the 214,300 children, 329 were identified as having DS. Among those, 21 children were diagnosed with ASD, 48 with ADHD, and 6 exhibited co-existing ASD and ADHD. After adjusting for demographic factors, compared to those without DS, the ORs of ASD, ADHD and the co-occurrence of ASD and ADHD in children with DS were 5.40 (95% CI: 3.04-9.59), 1.72 (95% CI: 1.17-2.53), and 3.45(95% CI:1.29-9.20), respectively. Stratified analysis revealed that significant associations of DS with ASD and ADHD were detected for both male and female, but an interaction effect was only observed between sex and ASD (P < 0.001). Our study confirmed that children with DS are more likely to have comorbidities of ASD and ADHD than the general population, and these comorbidities may vary by sex.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144007821","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, it establishes the eligible verbal communication age range necessary for its application. The initial development and content validity process with external experts is described elsewhere (An et al., 2025 under review). The MAT-PA was iteratively refined during the content validity process with twenty children (two with version 0.1, ten with version 0.2, and eight with version 0.3). Modifications were made based on feedback from children who completed the entire interview. The Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales, Second Edition (VABS-2), assessed the age-equivalent for daily verbal communication skills required for the MAT-PA. Feedback from the twelve children who completed the entire interview process (two with version 0.1, six with version 0.2, and four with version 0.3) provided evidence supporting the tool's content validity. Challenges with attention spans and verbal abilities limited full participation from the remaining eight children. Parent-reported VABS-2 scores indicated that the MAT-PA is suitable for children with ASD who have verbal communication skills equivalent to 3-year-olds (receptive) and 6-year-olds (expressive). The MAT-PA is the first tool specifically designed to explore the psychological needs and behavioral regulation of children with ASD, providing evidence of content validity. Future work should focus on improving the tool's reliability for trial integration, exploring its applicability across diverse contexts, and leveraging technology to boost scalability and impact.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144019624","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In addition, recent studies on the buffering effect of self-compassion related with psychological difficulties have also attracted attention. At this point, this study aims to carry out a meta-analytic review of studies examining the association between self-compassion and psychological distress, parenting stress, and well-being. Web of Science (WOS), Scopus, and EBSCOHost (APA PsycArticles, MEDLINE, TR Index, ERIC) electronic databases were searched in November 2023. Studies were included if they were quantitative and included parents of children with NDDs as the study population. As a result, 131 studies were obtained. After the duplicate studies were removed and evaluated according to the inclusion criteria, n = 15 were included. The random effects model was used to obtain the pooled effect sizes. The results showed that there was a large, negative, and significant relationship between self-compassion and parental depression score and parenting stress; a moderate, negative, and significant relationship between self-compassion and parental anxiety score; and a large, positive, and significant relationship between self-compassion and parental well-being. According to these findings, it is important to observe and measure the level of self-compassion for the well-being of parents of children with neurodevelopmental disorders. Moreover, increasing self-compassion in parents of children with neurodevelopmental disorders may be a protective factor for the psychological health of these parents.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144010888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data is from the Young-HUNT4 study, linked with diagnostic information from the Norwegian Patient Registry. Variables explored are objective accelerometer-measured PA, SB, and sleep duration, self-reported participation in organized and unorganized physical activities, and screen activities. Results confirms that autistic youth engage in lower levels of moderate-to-vigorous PA, while demonstrating similar levels of light PA. They also spend more time sitting and comparable time sleeping. Autistic youth participate less in sport and were less likely to use commercial gyms. However, their participation in outdoor activities were similar to their peers. Regarding screen activities, autistic youth spent more time playing video games, while youth with ADHD were more engaged in social media. Among autistic youth, the only gender difference found was in video games. In conclusion, autistic youth are less physically active overall and spend significant time in SB. However, their comparable participation in light PA suggests opportunities for promoting further participation. Additionally, exergaming could offer a promising avenue to increase PA in this population.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144025933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sixty adolescents with ADHD aged 12-17 (Mage = 14.33 ± 1.43 years) met the inclusion criteria. MVPA data were assessed using accelerometers worn around the waist for seven consecutive days. SI, depression, anxiety, stress, and resilience were examined using self-report questionnaires. Bivariate correlations were estimated for all variables. Lavaan package was used to examine the association between MVPA and SI, and the mediating effects of depression, anxiety, stress, and resilience by adjusting for a minimally sufficient confounder set and applying the bootstrap method. MVPA was negatively associated with SI. Depression fully mediated this association. Anxiety, stress, and resilience combining with depression formed three chain mediation paths between MVPA and SI, respectively. The integrative mediation model, including anxiety, stress, resilience, and depression, revealed that anxiety and depression explained 38.2% of the variance in the association between MVPA and SI, and resilience and depression explained 22.1%, while stress did not. MVPA could serve as an alternative or adjunctive approach, particularly in conjunction with depression-focused interventions, to increase resilience, decrease anxiety and depression, and in turn to prevent or attenuate SI in adolescents with ADHD.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143993864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants completed the Autism Identity Questionnaire, Daily Routine and Autonomy questionnaire, Child and Adolescent Scale of Participation-Youth, and the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory. The findings indicated moderate agreement between self-reports and parental reports regarding autism identity, functional autonomy, and QoL. Fair agreement was found regarding social participation. Adolescents who reported higher levels of acceptance regarding their autism identity demonstrated greater autonomy and participation, which correlated with a higher QoL. Conversely, those with higher engulfment scores (feeling overwhelmed by the diagnosis) exhibited lower levels of independence, social participation, and emotional and social QoL. These findings suggest that fostering a positive autism identity may enhance autonomy and social participation while addressing feelings of engulfment could improve emotional and social outcomes.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144007820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To better understand autistic individuals' insights, nine autistic young adults from different cultural groups between 20 and 35 years old (four cis-males, two cis-females, three non-binaries) were interviewed to learn about their previous experiences and future expectations in sexuality and relationship education. Results of the inductive (i.e., bottom-up) thematic analyses indicated a low consideration of cultural aspects in their SRE experiences reported by autistic adults. The results highlighted the need for a diverse, consistent, and tailored SRE for the autistic population, with more efforts made from the education system to promote cultural adaptations of SRE.

However, identifying and interpreting these differences can be complex due to the wide range of variables used to analyse Centre of Pressure (CoP) trajectories. This study aims to elucidate the specific characteristics of postural control in AT children by identifying the most discriminative CoP variables that distinguish them from NT children. The study evaluated 24 AT and 24 NT children while they stood on a force plate for 30 s under three conditions: eyes open (EO), eyes closed (EC), and the feet on a foam pad with eyes open (EOF). A total of 75 variables-including frequential, linear, and non-linear variables-were extracted from the CoP trajectory. These variables, expressed as the rate of change between the EC and EOF conditions relative to the EO condition, were compared between the AT and NT groups. A best-subsets approach was used to identify the most discriminative variables, and Pearson correlations were calculated to assess their relationship with age and Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) scores. Of the 75 variables analysed, 15 showed significant differences between the AT and NT groups. The best-subsets analysis and the correlations revealed that variables such as the rate of change between the EOF and EO conditions, and the root mean square of the trembling component of the CoP trajectory, were particularly discriminative. Autistic children demonstrated a more rigid and regular CoP trajectory, particularly in the EO condition, compared to NT children. These findings suggest that AT children have greater difficulty integrating multisensory information and an increased reliance on supraspinal processes for postural control.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144007933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The symptom severity of 104 children was assessed using the Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), maternal ON symptoms with ORTO-11, ARFID symptoms with the Nine-Item Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder Screening Tool (NIAS), and sensory sensitivities with the Eyuboglu Sensory Reactivity Scale (ESRS). Multiple regression analyzed predictors of NIAS scores, and moderator analysis examined whether ORTO-11 moderated the ESRS-NIAS relationship. ON was present in 58% of the mothers. Mothers with ON had significantly higher total NIAS scores and NIAS Fear subscale scores. A positive and statistically significant relationship was found between the CARS scores and the hyporeactivity and sensory-seeking subscales of the ESRS scale. When NIAS was taken as the dependent variable, a significant regression relationship was found between CARS-9 and ORTO-11. However, ORTO-11 does not play a moderating role in the effect of ESRS on NIAS. ARFID symptoms are predicted by maternal ON symptoms and CARS-9 scores in children. We emphasize the importance of evaluating the eating attitudes and food perspectives of caregivers when atypical eating behaviors are identified in the clinical follow-up of children diagnosed with ASD. Since the study was conducted solely with mothers', further research is needed to examine the effects of ON symptoms in fathers and other caregivers.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143991736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
