Capturing attitudes towards research and data sharing in down syndrome (CARDS-DS)
Open science initiatives aim to accelerate research through data sharing. While prior research has explored public attitudes toward genomic data sharing, perspectives on sharing other data types, such as neuroimaging data, remain largely unexplored. To address this gap, we developed the CARDS-DS (Capturing Attitudes toward Research and Data Sharing in Down Syndrome) questionnaire, a novel survey designed to assess parental attitudes toward open-a…
Advancing Wrist‐Worn Accelerometry for Measurement of Infant Motor Behavior
Wearable sensor technology, particularly accelerometry, is an emerging tool to measure infant motor behavior. We evaluated (1) differences and relationships between accelerometry‐derived variables in structured versus unstructured contexts and (2) the convergent validity of accelerometer‐derived variables with coded motor behavior during structured motor tasks and with caregiver reports of infant motor behavior. Typically developing infants ( n =…
Infant vocalizing and phenotypic outcomes in autism
Infant vocalizations are early-emerging communicative markers shown to be atypical in autism spectrum disorder (ASD), but few longitudinal, prospective studies exist. In this study, 23,850 infant vocalizations from infants at low (LR)- and high (HR)-risk for ASD (HR-ASD = 23, female = 3; HR-Neg = 35, female = 13; LR = 32, female = 10; 80% White; collected from 2007 to 2017 near Philadelphia) were analyzed at 6, 12, and 24 months. At 12 months, HR…
The Effects of Poverty on Childhood Brain Development
IMPORTANCE The study provides novel data to inform the mechanisms by which poverty negatively impacts childhood brain development. OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the income-to-needs ratio experienced in early childhood impacts brain development at school age and to explore the mediators of this effect. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PARTICIPANTS This study was conducted at an academic research unit at the Washington University School of Medicine in St Lo…
