Cross-cultural comparison of sensory behaviors in children with autism / Kristina G. CARON in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 66/5 (septembre-octobre 2012)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 66/5 (septembre-octobre 2012) . - p. 605-605 Titre : Cross-cultural comparison of sensory behaviors in children with autism Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Kristina G. CARON ; Roseann C. SCHAAF ; Eynat Gal ; Teal BENEVIDES Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p. 605-605 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autisme  Relation interculturelle Résumé : Parents of children with autism frequently report that their children exhibit unusual responses to sensory experiences. Little research is available, however, describing how parents’ and children’s culture and environment might influence parents’ reports of their children’s behaviors. This study compared the frequency of parent-reported responses to sensory experiences in children from two countries—Israel and the United States. We administered the Short Sensory Profile to primary caregivers of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and typically developing peers. Results indicate that Israeli parents reported unusual responses to sensory experiences less frequently than U.S. parents for both ASD and typically developing children. U.S. children with ASD demonstrated significantly greater difficulty in the Auditory Filtering and Visual/Auditory Sensitivity domains than Israeli children with ASD. These findings indicate a need to further explore the influence of culture and environment on caregiver perceptions of the responses to sensory experiences of children with ASD.

Development and Reliability of the Autism Work Skills Questionnaire (AWSQ) / Eynat Gal in American Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol. 67/1 (janvier-février 2013)

Public ISBD [article]  inAmerican Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol. 67/1 (janvier-février 2013) . - p. 117 Titre : Development and Reliability of the Autism Work Skills Questionnaire (AWSQ) Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Eynat Gal ; Noomi KATZ ; Anat BEN MEIR Année de publication : 2013 Article en page(s) : p. 117 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autisme  Autoévaluation  Orientation professionnelle Résumé : OBJECTIVE. The Autism Work Skills Questionnaire (AWSQ), a new, comprehensive self-report assessment of a person’s vocational profile, was developed to help produce a good person–job match. This preliminary study was aimed at developing the questionnaire and determining its content validity and internal consistency. METHOD. Forty-six adults with high-functioning autism spectrum disorder (HFASD), ages 18–39, were interviewed with the questionnaire. A two-phase study was conducted: (1) constructing the questionnaire and determining its content validity and (2) ascertaining internal consistency reliability. RESULTS. We found that the AWSQ had initial content validity and moderate to high internal consistency reliability (Cronbach’s α = .64–.90). CONCLUSION. The AWSQ can be a useful clinical and research tool in occupational therapy for evaluating work skills of adults with HFASD. Further studies with larger samples and including both typically developing individuals and individuals with HFASD are required to further support the questionnaire’s reliability and validity.

Quality of life: A universal or a disability specific concept? / Asnat Bar-Haim Erez in Canadian Journal of Occupational Therapy, 87(1) (Février 2020)

Public ISBD [article]  inCanadian Journal of Occupational Therapy > 87(1) (Février 2020) . - p. 4-11 Titre : Quality of life: A universal or a disability specific concept? Titre original : La qualité de vie : un concept universel ou spécifique au handicap? Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Asnat Bar-Haim Erez ; Eynat Gal Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : p. 4-11 Note générale : doi.org/10.1177/0008417419831552 Langues : Français (fre) Mots-clés : Accessibilité  Adultes  Ergothérapie  Mesure  Trouble du spectre de l’autisme Résumé : La qualité de vie est un résultat important de la pratique de l’ergothérapie. Le trouble du spectre de l’autisme (TSA) est un trouble neurodéveloppemental ayant un impact sur l’individu tout au long de sa vie et qui peut affecter considérablement sa qualité de vie. La mesure de la qualité de vie des personnes ayant un TSA pose un défi et suscite un débat, à savoir s’il faut utiliser des mesures générales ou des mesures adaptées qui sont spécifiques à un handicap donné. But. Cet article vise à (a) revisiter le construit de la qualité de vie et à discuter des dilemmes spécifiques entourant la mesure de la qualité de vie, et à (b) discuter des conséquences pour l’évaluation de la qualité de vie des individus atteints d’un TSA, tout en mettant en relief l’apport potentiel de l’ergothérapie dans le développement de mesures. Questions clés. Nous suggérons d’ajouter le domaine de l’accessibilité aux évaluations de la qualité de vie, y compris les aspects physique, sensoriel, social et cognitif, et d’utiliser des mesures spécifiques de la qualité de vie orientées vers un handicap donné. Implications. L’article lance un appel aux ergothérapeutes, afin qu’ils contribuent au développement de mesures spécifiques orientées vers le TSA, qui tiennent compte des caractéristiques uniques du trouble et des ressources de l’environnement.

The relationship between sensory processing disorders and eating problems among children with intellectual developmental deficits / Batya Engel-Yeger in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.79 N°1 (January 2016)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.79 N°1 (January 2016) . - p.17-25 Titre : The relationship between sensory processing disorders and eating problems among children with intellectual developmental deficits Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Batya Engel-Yeger ; Reem Hardal-Nasser ; Eynat Gal Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : p.17-25 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : sensory processing disorder  eating  activities of daily living  intellectual developmental deficit Résumé : Introduction Sensory processing disorders are prevalent among children with intellectual developmental deficits and negatively impact their daily routines. Eating, which is a major part of daily routines, is known to be frequently impaired among children with intellectual developmental deficits. This study aimed to examine the relationships between sensory processing disorders and eating problems in children with different levels of intellectual developmental deficit. Method Participants were 91 children aged 4 to 9 years: 25 with mild intellectual developmental deficits, 32 with moderate intellectual developmental deficits and 34 with severe/profound intellectual developmental deficits. All participants were recruited from special education kindergartens/schools for children with intellectual developmental deficits. Participants' primary caregiver in school completed the screening tool of eating problems and the short sensory profile. Findings Significant correlations between sensory processing disorders and eating problems were found in each intellectual developmental deficit level (r = −.40, p ≤ .05 to r = −.57, p ≤ .001), but most correlations were found among children with moderate and severe/profound level. Energy level significantly predicted aspiration frequency; smell/taste sensitivity significantly predicted food selectivity and food refusal frequency. Conclusion Eating problems should be screened among children with intellectual developmental deficits according to intellectual developmental deficit severity and other related factors such as sensory processing disorders. Applying this approach in occupational therapy intervention may contribute to a child's adaptive behaviour and performance in daily routines.

Usability of a video modeling computer application for the vocational training of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder / Rotem Rosen in The British Journal of Occupational Therapy, Vol.80 Issue 4 (April 2017)

Public ISBD [article]  inThe British Journal of Occupational Therapy > Vol.80 Issue 4 (April 2017) . - p. 208-215 Titre : Usability of a video modeling computer application for the vocational training of adolescents with autism spectrum disorder Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Rotem Rosen ; Patrice L.

This study aimed at evaluating the usability of Ready, Set, Work!, a video modeling application for use by adolescents with and without autism spectrum disorders, for participation in the vocational world, and to test whether it can discriminate between these two groups in terms of their response to simulated social dilemmas within vocational contexts. Method Twenty adolescents with autism spectrum disorders and 20 typically developing adolescents, aged 16–21 years, were trained to use the application, followed by completion of two usability tools: the Intrinsic Motivation Scale and a relevance questionnaire. Result Both groups found the application to be useful and relevant as a job readiness tool. The autism spectrum disorders group had significantly greater difficulty in identifying adaptive and maladaptive responses (Z = −2.74, p ≤ 0.05) and found the application to be more relevant compared to the control group (Z = −1.69, p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion Ready, Set, Work! appears to have good usability and social validity, suggesting the potential of this computerized video modeling tool to provide support for the acquisition and improvement of social vocational skills in adolescents in general and specifically in those with autism spectrum disorders.
