摘要
目的：在 ASD 患者中，与情绪失调（ED）密切相关的行为问题之一是情绪爆发（EOs），其特点是具有挑战性的行为模式，这种行为模式因人而异，因时而异。文化因素可调节情绪爆发的表现形式。本研究旨在描述拉丁美洲不同国家自闭症谱系障碍（ASD）儿童情绪爆发（EOs）的特征，并确定在这一多样化样本中导致 EOs 发生和频率的临床、情绪和环境因素：我们在 2023 年至 2024 年期间进行了一项横断面和跨文化研究，研究样本来自拉丁美洲自闭症网络（Latin American Network for Autism-REAL）的五个国家：阿根廷、巴西、智利、乌拉圭和多米尼加共和国。我们使用情绪失控问卷（EOQ）对 689 名患有自闭症的儿童（年龄 x = 8.7 ± 2.6 岁）进行了研究：结果：我们在样本中发现了患有自闭症的儿童中不同类型的情绪失控。最常见的是 "情绪的行为指标"（52.0%），其次是 "运动活动增加"（28.3%）、"非言语发声"（27.6%）、"轻度言语攻击"（23.8%）和 "回避"（21.5%）。儿童情绪不佳、今天过得不顺心或烦躁是增加幼儿情绪失控可能性的最重要因素：我们的研究结果表明，易怒是诱发情绪失控的一个重要因素，在监测患有 ASD 的儿童的心理健康时不应忽视或低估这一因素。
Understanding Emotional Outbursts: A Cross-Cultural Study in Latin American Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder.
Objectives: One of the behavioral problems strongly associated with emotional dysregulation (ED) in ASD is emotional outbursts (EOs) characterized by a pattern of challenging behavior that varies across individuals and across time. Cultural factors can modulate the expression of EOs. This study aimed to characterize the profile of emotional outbursts (EOs) in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) across various countries in Latin America and to identify clinical, emotional, and contextual factors that contribute to the onset and frequency of EOs within this diverse sample.
Methods: A cross-sectional and cross-cultural study was conducted between 2023 and 2024 comprising samples from five countries in the Latin American Network for Autism-REAL: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Uruguay, and the Dominican Republic. We studied 689 children with ASD (age x = 8.7 ± 2.6 years) using the Emotional Outburst Questionnaire (EOQ).
Results: We identified different types of EO among children with ASD in our sample. The most frequent was the 'behavioral indicators of emotion' (52.0%) followed by 'increased motor activity' (28.3%), 'non-speech vocalizations', (27.6%), 'mild verbal aggression' (23.8%), and 'avoidance' (21.5%). Children in a bad mood or having a bad day or experiencing irritability were the most significant factors that increased the likelihood of EOs.
Conclusions: Our results revealed that irritability is an important trigger for EOs and should not be disregarded or underestimated when monitoring the mental health of children with ASD.
期刊介绍：
Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes and short communications in the areas of cognitive neuroscience, developmental neuroscience, molecular and cellular neuroscience, neural engineering, neuroimaging, neurolinguistics, neuropathy, systems neuroscience, and theoretical and computational neuroscience. Our aim is to encourage scientists to publish their experimental and theoretical results in as much detail as possible. There is no restriction on the length of the papers. The full experimental details must be provided so that the results can be reproduced. Electronic files or software regarding the full details of the calculation and experimental procedure, if unable to be published in a normal way, can be deposited as supplementary material.
