Differentiating between these two pediatric movement disorders can be challenging due to overlapping clinical features, but is relevant due to distinct treatment modalities. The current study evaluated sensitivity and specificity of a tic screening measure, the Motor or Vocal Inventory of Tics (MOVeIT) in a pediatric sample enriched for stereotypy and tics. Children (n = 199, age 2–15 years old) receiving care in a developmental-behavioral pediatrics clinic underwent a gold-standard diagnostic assessment by a tic expert; these evaluations were compared to the MOVeIT. The MOVeIT demonstrated good sensitivity (89.8%) and relatively lower specificity (57.1%) compared to tic expert for detecting tics in the overall sample. Specificity of the MOVeIT to identify tics improved to 75% when excluding children with co-occurring stereotypy. For children with tics and co-occurring stereotypy, sensitivity remained high (91.9%) but specificity was low (39.1%). The area under the curve (AUC) value to detect tics on the MOVeIT compared to the tic expert gold standard was significantly higher for children without stereotypy (AUC = 85.7%) than those with stereotypy (AUC = 64.3%, p < .01). Overall, the ability to detect tics was better in those without co-occurring stereotypy symptoms. Further work is needed to establish the utility of the MOVeIT in populations where there is a high likelihood of co-occurring tics and stereotypy and in general population settings. Accurate distinction between tics and stereotypy will guide choices for intervention and anticipatory guidance for families.

Academic and social impairment in students by tic screen status and emotional/behavioral problem status were examined. Data were collected as part of an epidemiologic study, the Project to Learn about Youth – Mental Health. Participants were 2,312 secondary school students at the Ohio site (47.4% female; 94.4% non-Hispanic white) and their teachers. Students completed 6 items from the Motor tic, Obsessions and compulsions, Vocal tic Evaluation Survey (MOVES-6) and the Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ). Teachers completed the Proxy Report Questionnaire for tics and SDQ. Based on responses to the MOVES-6, 11.1% of students screened positive for tics. Internal consistency was adequate (α = 0.76); inter-rater consistency between teachers and students was low (0.03). Based on student self-report, those who screened positive for tics self-reported more academic and social impairment than students who screened negative for tics; teacher-report of impairment was similar between those with a positive or negative tic screen. Students who screened positive for tics and reported internalizing difficulties reported more academic and social impairment than students with only a positive tic screen. Teachers perceived those screening positive for tics and externalizing difficulties as the most socially impaired. In conclusion, a positive self-reported tic screen was associated with self-reported academic and social impairment. Findings reveal the independent contribution of tics to impairment, even when internalizing and externalizing problems are present, and the potential utility of a school-based screening for tics in adolescents.

Participants were 59 primary caregivers (85% biologic mothers) of children recently diagnosed with ADHD within a co-located, subspecialty pediatric clinic (ages 5–11; 73% male). Results indicated BC-ADHD was feasible to deliver, as evidenced by high levels of program usability (i.e. content and process fidelity), and caregiver behavioral engagement (M attendance = 88%; M homework adherence = 2.95 homework, SD = 1.15, 0–4 range). Families were also very satisfied (M = 6.06, 1–7 range). At post-treatment, BC-ADHD resulted in increases in caregiver empowerment and acceptability of behavioral treatment and reductions in concerns about both behavioral (adverse effects and feasibility) and medication (adverse effects) treatments (absolute Cohen’s d = 0.27 to 0.35). At 6-month follow-up, effects were sustained for increases in caregiver empowerment and for reductions in concerns about both behavioral and medication treatments (absolute ds = 0.36 to 0.40). Sleeper effects were observed for increased medication acceptability and decreased affiliate stigma (absolute ds = 0.26 to 0.29). Child impairment was also reduced at follow-up (d = -0.58). The percentage of caregivers who initiated behavior therapy (Kendall’s w = 0.63) or medication (Kendall’s w = 0.15) increased from baseline to 6-month follow-up. These findings provide initial support for BC-ADHD as a promising engagement program to foster positive caregiver attitudes and initiation of EBTs.

Chichetto, Lauren Vagelakos","doi":"10.1080/23794925.2023.2253544","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/23794925.2023.2253544","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTTourette syndrome (TS) affects about 0.5% of the population worldwide, but only sparse and conflicting data exist on TS prevalence among minority samples. Here we used VISITTS (a survey preceded by a short video showing tic phenomenology) and community outreach to provide estimates of tic disorder prevalence in African Americans. Community health workers (CHWs) left flyers at households in a predominantly minority neighborhood and approached people at a community health fair. Of 606 such contacts, 222 individuals agreed to discuss the study. Of these, 70% enrolled, of whom 82% identified as Black and 64% female. The VISITTS was well received. Lifetime prevalence of TS or another chronic tic disorder (TS/CTD) was 3.2%, and 31% endorsed any lifetime simple tic. The number of enrolled Black participants is remarkable compared to earlier TS studies, allowing one of the first prevalence estimates in this population (TS 2.3%, TS/CTD 3.9%). Tic disorders were endorsed only by Black respondents, though the small White sample precluded statistical comparison. Women had higher rates than men of TS (M:F = 0:1) and of any lifetime simple tic (M:F = 0.85), differing significantly from the expected 4:1 ratio (p = .009 and p < .001, respectively). For TS/CTD the ratio was 1.2:1 (p > .15). We conclude that VISITTS is a feasible tic screening tool in a minority population, that CHW community outreach increases enrollment of Black participants, that TS/CTD is no less common in this population, and that tics were as common in female as in male respondents.

Results indicate significant parent-adolescent discrepancies regarding the adolescent’s social anxiety; however, parent and adolescent discrepancies were lower on specific feared social situations. Additionally, results demonstrate that correspondence in parent-adolescent reporting was associated with improved treatment outcomes.

The current study seeks to explore the way that graduate school training may contribute to the specialized and siloed nature of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) assessment and intervention. Multiple sources of data were collected to understand training opportunities related to ASD, child mental health, and the integration of ASD and child mental health in American Psychological Association- (APA) accredited Clinical Psychology Ph.D. programs. Data were collected from information publicly available online, and from clinical psychology doctoral students and graduate program directors (GPD). Results indicate that most programs do not employ a faculty member whose work focuses on ASD. Additionally, ASD experience is encouraged, but not a required element of program curriculum. Therefore, most doctoral students do not obtain training in ASD assessment or intervention during graduate school. Even doctoral students who pursued ASD training experiences reported that they do not feel prepared to meet the mental health needs of autistic individuals. We discuss implications and provide recommendations for how doctoral programs can promote students’ proficiency and comfort diagnosing and supporting autistic individuals.
