Interpretability and clinical utility of the strength and stressors in parenting questionnaire
This study aimed to enhance the interpretability and clinical utility of the strength and stressors in parenting (SSF) questionnaire, a parent‐reported questionnaire designed to assess strength, stress and associated risks of mental ill‐health in parents of children with developmental disabilities. Responses to the SSF and a demographic questionnaire were collected from 576 parents of children with ( n = 203) and without ( n = 373) developmental …
Special Educational Needs Coordinators' knowledge and understanding of perception in preschool children with autism
It has been noted that children with autism seem to experience sensory stimuli in a way that differs from other children without autism; this significantly affects their everyday life in preschool in many ways. This study focuses on how Special Educational Needs Coordinators (SENCOs) perceive, consider, and reason about perception in children with autism in preschool. As SENCOs guide preschool staff in their inclusive work, extending our knowledg…
Narrative Skills in Primary School Children with Autism in Relation to Language and Nonverbal Temporal Sequencing
Recent research has suggested that temporal sequencing of narrative events might be a domain-general ability that underlies oral narrative capacities. The current study investigated this issue in a group of children with known pragmatic and narrative difficulties, namely Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). We hypothesized (1) that children with ASD (n = 45) would retell narratives of poorer quality than both chronological age-matched (CAM) children a…
Assessing False-Belief Understanding in Children with Autism Using a Computer Application
We have developed a False-Belief (FB) understanding task for use on a computer tablet, trying to assess FB understanding in a less social way. It is based on classical FB protocols, and additionally includes a manipulation of language in an attempt to explore the facilitating effect of linguistic support during FB processing. Specifically, the FB task was presented in three auditory conditions: narrative, silent, and interference. The task was as…
