Researchers who attempt to include this population face unique challenges regarding participant recruitment, informed consent, accurate measurement, and protecting privacy and confidentiality. This leads to gaps in understanding as well as a lack of evidence-based support for clinical and public health practice. Careful consideration is needed to ensure that autism research is appropriately inclusive and does not unduly burden vulnerable populations. This commentary uses the Kass framework as an example scaffold for navigating complex ethical challenges and improving accessibility and fairness in autism research. It reviews existing literature on the topic, and the resulting recommendations are informed by autistic individuals with substantial support needs. Increased representation of the full autism spectrum in research is necessary to ensure equitable health outcomes for all autistic individuals. Ethical analysis, guidance from autism research organizations, and recommendations from autistic adults can assist with this process.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144215861","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}

Twenty-one autistic children and 21 age-, verbal-intelligencer-, and nonverbal-intelligencer-matched neurotypical (NT) children participated in the study. (1) A semantic irrelevant task to assess whether autistic children can automatically integrate gestures and speech without requiring semantic processing; (2) a gesture semantic task to examine the impact of active gesture semantic activation on GSI. The experiment incorporated eye-tracking technology to measure reaction times (RTs) and total fixation duration (TFD) on gestures. In Experiment 1, neither RTs nor TFD on gestures in autistic children showed sensitivity to semantic congruence, contrasting with NT children's semantic congruence effects. Nevertheless, autistic children demonstrated markedly reduced TFD on gestures relative to their NT peers. In Experiment 2, autistic children demonstrated semantic congruence effects similar to those of NT children in TFD on gestures, whereas in RTs, such effects were restricted to the gesture-picture congruent condition. This study indicates that autistic children exhibit atypical automatic GSI; however, these differences are attributable to insufficient bottom-up semantic activation rather than inherent deficits in integration abilities. This study offers novel insights into cross-modal semantic processing mechanisms and promotes the development of neurodiversity-based adaptive language intervention strategies.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144215858","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}

Our analysis adopts a qualitative approach, utilising thematic analyses. Through inductive thematic analysis we identified four key themes: (1) Social divide between neurotypes, (2) Conscious efforts in social interaction, (3) Adverse social experiences, and (4) Balancing authenticity and social adaptation in social skills programs. Participants emphasised the importance of choice and an individualised approach regarding support. While expressing a desire to develop various social skills, many participants embraced their identity and desired to improve self-advocacy. There is a need for tailored and individualised approaches in social skills programs, acknowledging the diverse experiences of autistic people. Additionally, choice and autonomy are important, aligning with the desire for self-advocacy.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144215868","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}

While research highlights the developmental benefits of music for autistic children with ID, few studies explore formal music training in this population, particularly within the context of cultural influences. The study included 148 participants, consisting of 84 parents of typically developing children and 64 parents of autistic children with ID. A questionnaire was used to assess parental attitudes toward music and their decisions regarding formal music training enrollment for their children. Covariates such as family income, child executive function, and parental expectations were analyzed to identify potential predictors. Parents of autistic children with ID held more positive attitudes toward music compared to parents of typically developing children when controlling for covariates. However, only 14.1% of autistic children with ID were enrolled in formal music training, in contrast to 40.4% of typically developing children. Family income and child executive function emerged as significant barriers to enrollment decisions. The findings highlight a disparity between positive parental attitudes toward music and pursuit of music education among autistic children with ID, highlighting systemic and financial barriers. Accessible music programs, adjustments in parental expectations, and inclusive policies may bridge the gap between parental attitudes and actual support. These insights call for targeted interventions to ensure that autistic children with ID can access the developmental benefits of music education.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144215862","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}

Previous studies have suggested that certain health-related behaviors in children with ASD, such as sleep or physical activity, may affect FQoL. However, the relative and independent effects of different health-related behaviors on FQoL remain poorly understood. This study investigated the relationship between sleep, mealtime difficulties, screen time, physical activity, and FQoL in ASD. Parents of 65 children with ASD aged four to thirteen years completed a detailed assessment of their children's health-related behaviors and FQoL. A multiple regression framework was used to estimate the independent contribution of each health-related behavior to FQoL. Only sleep and mealtime problems were independently associated with lower FQoL, even after controlling for physical activity, screen time, gender, age, traits of ASD, and intelligence, accounting for a 60, and 3% of the variance, respectively. All categories of sleep and mealtime problems were associated with FQoL, with particularly strong correlations for sleep anxiety (r =.71), daytime sleepiness (r =.70), and food refusal (r =.72). In addition to core autistic features, sleep and mealtime behaviors are associated with FQoL in children with ASD. Interventions aimed at improving sleep habits and reducing mealtime difficulties many enhance FQoL in children with ASD.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144215866","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 115 participants comprised of 47 individuals with ADHD, 40 individuals with dyslexia, and 28 individuals with autism. As part of a larger study, participants were asked to complete a series of questionnaires online using the Qualtrics survey link. In addition, participants were asked this question: \"I best identify myself as: (a) Person-first: e.g., I'm a person with ASD/ADHD/SLD, (b) Identity-first: e.g., I'm autistic/hyperactive/inattentive/dyslexic or (c) Other (please specify).Results: Majority (about 69%) of students with SEN overall preferred using Person-first language (e.g., \"person with ASD/ADHD/SLD\") and also across all three groups of SEN. Only type of SEN factor influenced the preference for identity language where students diagnosed with ADHD (89.4%) and ASD (50%) were more likely to use Person-first language. The participants' gender and the number of years diagnosis were not associated with their identity language preference.Conclusion: While a majority of students with SEN preferred Person-first language, it is important to recognise that a substantial number also preferred Identity-first language, and their preferences should be respected to avoid feelings of exclusion.","PeriodicalId":15148,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144215863","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}
