自閉症類疾患兒童的診斷穩定度、自閉症狀變化與認知及適應功能關係之縱貫研究 / A Longitudinal Study of Diagnosis Stability, Autistic Symptom Severity, and its Relation with Cognitive and Adaptive Functions in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders李宜融 Unknown Date (has links)
研究目的:本研究的目的,是以縱貫研究的方式探討自閉症類疾患兒童自學齡前期至學齡期的臨床診斷穩定度、自閉症狀嚴重度變化、適應行為型態與其變化、內外化行為。
研究方法:本研究納入28名自閉症類疾患與18位非自閉症類疾患,於三個時間點進行評估:時間點一平均生理年齡為2歲半、時間點二為4歲、時間點三為9歲半。本研究分析三個時間點之臨床診斷穩定度以及後兩個時間點之評估資料。症狀嚴重度方面,以自閉症診斷會談問卷修訂版之晤談評估;適應行為方面,以文蘭適應行為量表第二版評估;認知功能方面,時間點二時以穆林發展量表評估,時間點三時使用魏氏兒童智力量表第四版評估;內外化行為方面,時間點三時以阿肯巴克實證衡鑑系統中的兒童行為檢核表評估。
研究結果:本研究結果顯示,自閉症類疾患從學齡前期至學齡期的臨床診斷穩定度高,若分亞型來看,自閉性疾患的診斷穩定度比其他未註明之廣泛性發展疾患高。症狀嚴重度方面,學齡期時自閉症類疾患兒童的溝通、侷限及重複刻板行為有顯著改善,社交行為亦有改善趨勢。適應行為方面,學齡前期及學齡期皆未發現自閉症類疾患與非自閉症類疾患之表現型態有差異,兩組在社會化領域的表現皆較其他領域來得差。自閉症類疾患的適應行為於學齡期時,年齡當量顯著增加,但社會化適應行為標準分數反而退步;進一步以認知功能分組檢視,則發現高功能自閉症類疾患在日常生活技巧與社會化領域的進步幅度顯著較多。內外化行為方面,學齡期時自閉症類疾患個案的退縮/憂鬱分量尺與社會問題分量尺之分數高於非自閉症類疾患,且自閉症類疾患在退縮/憂鬱、社會問題、注意力問題等三個分量尺上,皆有超過一半的個案達到邊緣範圍以上之分數;未發現內外化行為與自閉症狀嚴重度之間的相關。
結論:自閉症類疾患兒童到了學齡期大部分仍維持臨床診斷,顯示其自閉特徵仍然穩定存在,不過症狀嚴重度的整體趨勢會隨著年紀改善;但若以個體差異來看,每位個案進步的程度呈現高異質性,每位個案症狀改變的程度可能不同。自閉症類兒童的社會化適應行為從學齡前期至學齡期皆為其弱項,雖適應行為會隨著年齡進步,但社會化適應行為仍追不上同儕程度;高功能自閉症類疾患兒童的適應行為在日常生活技巧與社會化領域的進步幅度顯著較多,可能與認知功能有關。內外化行為方面,自閉症類疾患兒童的退縮/憂鬱問題、社會問題、注意力問題較多,但與症狀嚴重度無關。 / Purposes: The purpose of this longitudinal study was to examine the stability of clinical diagnosis, symptom severity, adaptive function and enternal/external behavior from toddler to school age in children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs).
Methods: Twenty eight children diagnosed with ASDs and eighteen children with Non-ASDs participated at time 1 (mean chronological age was 2.5 years old), and then followed at time 2 (mean chronological age was 4 years old) and at time 3 (mean chronological age was 9.5 years old). This study examines the stability of clinical diagnosis from time 1 to time 3, and analyze the measurement data between time 2 and time 3. Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised (ADI-R) was used to measure autistic symptom severity at time 2 and time 3; Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales-II (VABS-II) was used to measure daily adaptive behavior at time 2 and time 3; Mullen Scale of Early Learning (MSEL) or Wechsler intelligence scale for children-Fourth Edition (WISC-IV) was used to measure cognitive function at two time points; Child Behavior Checklist for Ages 6-18 (CBCL/6-18) was used to measure enternal and external behavior at time 3.
Results: The stability of clinical diagnosis was high from toddler age to school age, and the stability of Autistic Disorder was higher than Pervasive Developmental Disorder Not Otherwise Specified. The ADI-R scores of communication domain, repetitive and stereotyped behavior domain were decreased at school age, while reciprocal social interaction domain was also declined but no significant difference. All domains of VABS-II standard score were no significant difference between ASDs and Non-ASDs at two time point, and the score of social domain was worst in both two groups. The VABS-II standard score of social domain was reduced although the age equivalent was increased at school age, and the standard score of other domains were no significant difference between the two time points but all age equivalents were improved at school age. Dividing ASDs to high-function ASDs and low-function ASDs to analyze the growth rate of adaption behaviors, the results indicated that the growth rate of adaption behaviors were higher in high-function ASDs at daily skill domain and social domain. Children with ASDs had significant higher scores on Withdrawn/Depressed scale and Social Problem scale than Non-ASDs in CBCL, and over 50 percent of ASDs scored above the borderline range at Withdrawn/Depressed scale, Social Problem scale and Attention Problem scale. In addition, there were no significant correlations between CBCL and ADI-R.
Conclusions: In summary, the study showed that most of ASDs sustained the clinical diagnosis from preschool age to school age, however, the autistic symptom severity was declined. Additionally, the improvement of symptom severity of individual ASDs was high variability. The social adaptive behavior was worst in both toddler age and school age in ASDs. Although these children with ASD developed some of adaptive behaviors in the school age, the magnitude of improvement couldn’t equal to the change of their chronological age, especially in socialization domain. The growth rate of daily skill domain and social domain were higher in high-function ASDs than low-function ASDs, might associated with cognitive function. More Children with ASDs had withdrawn/depressed problem, social problem and attention problem, but there were not related to autistic symptom severity.

Quel traitement pour le sujet autiste ? : exposé et analyse critique des principales approches de l'autisme : les différents moyens mis en oeuvre par le sujet autiste pour compenser sa carence symbolique : développement d'un traitement possible du sujet autiste / What treatment for the autistic subject ? : exposition and analysis of autism main approaches : the various means of compensation (or « suppletion basis ») for the symbolic deficiency used by the autistic subject : élaboration of an « autistic symptom » : possible treatment, support and subjective evolution of the autistic subjectTourte, Alain 29 September 2012 (has links)
Ce travail soutient une conception non déficitaire de l’autisme. Il s’intéresse au traitement du sujet autiste, à son accompagnement et son évolution subjective. Il développe une prise en charge des autistes centrée sur leur fonctionnement spécifique et leur singularité. Il fait l’hypothèse d’un sujet au travail dans l’autisme, qui cherche désespérément à réfréner ce qui l’envahit, à tempérer son angoisse, et à symboliser son monde. Notre lecture lacanienne des principales approches de l’autisme (psychodynamiques, comportementales, cognitives) permet de dégager les conditions et modalités de traitement qui favorisent la relance du sujet autiste dans la dynamique du langage, son ouverture à autrui, à la connaissance, et au lien social. Cette évolution passe par l’élaboration d’un « symptôme autistique ». Nous montrons la fonction thérapeutique essentielle des différents moyens de compensation (ou « bases de suppléances ») à la carence symbolique, mis en oeuvre par le sujet autiste. Et précisons la fonction et le rôle déterminant du thérapeute au cours du traitement. Enfin, nous dégageons une clinique différentielle entre autisme et psychose. / This work supports an approach of autism as non deficient. It focuses on treatment, support and subjective evolution of the autistic subject. It develops a care centered on specificity and singularity of this subject. It makes the hypothesis that there is a subject working his way through in autism, desperately trying to stop what invades him, to moderate his anxiety, to symbolize his world. Our lacanian reading of the major approaches to autism (psychoanalytical, behaviorism, cognitivism) allows to develop the conditions and methods of a treatment that helps the autistic subject to re-start in the dynamics of language, stimulates his opening in others, in knowledge, and in social links. This evolution requires the elaboration of an « autistic symptom ». We underline the essential therapeutic function of various means of compensation (or « suppletion basis ») for the symbolic deficiency used by the autistic subject. And we specify the function and determining role of the therapist during the treatment. Finally, we define a differential clinical approach between autism and psychosis.

自閉症類疾患兒童自閉症狀變化與認知及適應行為關係之縱貫研究 / A Longitudinal Study of Autistic Symptom Severity and its Relation with Cognitive and Adaptive Functions in Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders許立懿 Unknown Date (has links)
研究目的:欲瞭解自閉症類疾患兒童,橫跨幼兒期、學齡前期至學齡期的自閉症狀發展軌跡,探究當中是否存有不同的發展軌跡,並檢視不同發展軌跡的群體在認知功能與適應行為隨時間的變化型態是否有差異,以及不同群體在早期的社會溝通能力或療育經驗上是否有差異。
方法:本研究有37名自閉症類與24位非自閉症類受試者納入分析,共測量三次:時間點一平均生理年齡為2歲半、時間點二為4歲、時間點三為8歲半。於三個時間點皆以自閉症診斷觀察量表評估自閉症狀嚴重度、以及穆林發展量表或魏氏兒童智力量表第四版評估認知功能,在時間點二與時間點三以文蘭適應行為量表第二版評估適應行為;另外,在時間點一以台灣版兩歲期自閉症篩檢工具評估社會溝通能力,以及在時間點一至時間點二之間,以電話訪問的方式紀錄兒童每週參與療育的時數。
結果:由階層式集群分析結果顯示,社交情感嚴重度校正分數可將自閉症類與非自閉症類兒童分群,並於自閉症類兒童中可再分為維持高嚴重度組與退步組。兩組自閉症類兒童於學齡時期在社交情感症狀皆呈現嚴重度明顯上升的趨勢,在認知功能與適應行為隨時間的變化型態相似,不過維持高嚴重度組在認知功能與適應行為有較低的分數(但未達統計顯著)。此外,兩組自閉症類兒童於時間點一的意圖溝通能力即有差異,不過僅共享式注意力可預測日後社交情感症狀發展軌跡之分群。
總結:由結果可見自閉症狀維持高嚴重度組,於認知功能與適應行為有較明顯缺損,推論自閉症類兒童的自閉症狀嚴重度與認知功能及適應行為並非完全獨立的變項。兩組自閉症類兒童於學齡期症狀嚴重度上升,而此趨勢在退步組兒童更為明顯。雖然本研究並未發現早期療育經驗對於社交情感症狀發展的影響,不過共享式注意力對於日後社交情感症狀有預測力。進一步討論此結果在理論與臨床實務上的應用。 / Purposes: the purpose of the study was to plot longitudinal developmental trajectories of autism symptom severity in the children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) from toddler age to school age. And to examine whether these different trajectories are associated with the cognitive function, adaptive behavior, early social communication skill, and early intervention experience.
Methods: Thirty-seven children with ASDs and 24 children with developmental delay participated at time 1 (mean chronological age was 2.5 years old), and then followed at time 2 (mean chronological age was 4 years old) and time 3 (mean chronological age was 8.5 years old). The study assessed the autism symptom severity by ADOS and cognitive function by MSEL or WISC-Ⅳ at three time points; adaptive behavior by VABS-II at time 2 and time 3; and early social communication skills by T-STAT at time 1 and also used telephone interviews to record participants’ weekly intervention hours during time 1 to time 2.
Results: In hierarchical cluster analysis, social affect calibrated severity score (CSS) could discriminate ASDs and Non-ASDs groups, also could divided ASDs into two groups, called persistent high and worsening groups. The social affect symptom severity increased at school age in both groups. On the other hand, the change of cognitive function and adaptive behavior with time showed similar pattern in the two groups. However, participants in the persistent high group have relatively lower scores of cognitive function and adaptive behavior, although did not rearch statistically significant. Furthermore, two ASDs groups at toddler showed difference in intention communication skills; however, only joint attention could predict social affect trajectory subgrouping.
Conclusions: In summery, the study showed that persistent high group has more cognitive and adaptive function impairments than the worsening group in the children with ASDs. It seemed that the autistic symptom are not entirely independent with cognitive function and adaptive behavior. Moreover, the symptom severity increased at school age in both the persistent high and the worsening groups, and this trend was more significant in the worsening group. Additionally, the experience of early intervention showed no significant effects on developmental trajectories of social affect symptom; however, the joint attention was found to be an index to predict the development of social affect symptom in ASDs groups. The theoretical and clinical implications were discussed.
