Using an Instructional Package to Support Adults with Autism in Communicating with a Medical Provider

This study evaluated an instructional package combining video training, guided notes, the Autism Healthcare Accommodations Tool, and behavior skills training to help adults with autism communicate their needs and request accommodations from medical providers. Results demonstrated significant improvements in communication skills that generalized to new providers and persisted after intervention removal.

Depression and Psychological Help-Seeking Attitudes Among Turkish Mothers of Children with Autism: Problem-Focused Coping as a Mediator

This study of 250 Turkish mothers of autistic children investigated how depression and coping strategies influence their willingness to seek professional psychological help. Results showed depression was positively linked to problem-focused coping but negatively associated with help-seeking attitudes, with problem-solving playing a mediating role between depression and psychological help-seeking.

Transdiagnostic conceptualization of schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder: An integrative framework of minimal self disturbance

This literature review proposes that autism spectrum disorder and schizophrenia share overlapping phenomenological and neural mechanisms centered on anomalous minimal self-experience, including altered body ownership and sense of agency. The framework integrates findings from phenomenology, neurocognition, and neural imaging, showing that while both conditions feature self-disturbances, they manifest differently—with schizophrenia patients showing heightened body ownership alterations and autistic individuals showing decreased susceptibility.

Examining the Transition from Single Words to Phrase Speech in Children with ASD: A Systematic Review

This systematic review synthesized data from 20 independent studies to characterize autistic children who progressed from single-word speech to phrase speech, finding that approximately 48% of participants achieved this transition during their study periods. Children under age 5 were more likely to transition to phrases than older children, and those who did transition generally showed below-average adaptive and cognitive skills despite developing generative language abilities.

Face Recognition Deficits and Metacognitive Awareness in Autism Spectrum Disorder: Italian Famous Face Test Study

This empirical study compared face recognition abilities and self-awareness of these abilities between 50 neurotypical adults and 49 autistic adults using standardized tests. Results showed autistic participants had significantly lower scores on famous face identification and greater awareness of their deficits, suggesting face processing impairments extend beyond laboratory settings to real-world recognition tasks.

Atypical Alpha Band Microstates During Eyes-Closed Resting State EEG in Autism

This study compared EEG microstate patterns between 30 autistic and 30 neurotypical adults, finding that autistic participants showed significant differences in microstate A, C, D, and E parameters, particularly in microstate C which was reduced across all measures. Some microstate parameters also correlated with autism symptom severity scores on the RAADS-R diagnostic scale.

Unraveling the Role of Wnt Signaling Pathway in the Pathogenesis of Autism Spectrum Disorder: A Systematic Review

This systematic review examines evidence from animal models linking dysregulation of the Wnt signaling pathway to autism pathogenesis across molecular, cellular, and physiological levels. The authors identify this pathway as a potential future therapeutic target, noting that drugs affecting Wnt signaling can reduce autistic-like behaviors in animal models.

Exploring the relationship among hikikomori tendencies, autistic traits, computer game use and eating disorder symptoms

This cross-sectional study of 2,574 Italian university students examined associations between hikikomori (severe social withdrawal) risk and autism spectrum traits, pathological gaming, and eating disorders using standardized assessment tools. Results showed significant correlations between hikikomori risk and autistic dimensions, with pathological computer gaming and most autistic features emerging as significant predictors of hikikomori risk.

Experiences of Parents of Children with Autism and Intellectual Disabilities Following the Kahramanmaraş Earthquake

A phenomenological study examined how 21 children with autism spectrum disorder and intellectual disabilities were affected by the February 2023 Kahramanmaraş earthquake in Turkey through interviews with 15 parents. Findings indicated children experienced significant physical, psychological, and educational harm with increased behavioral problems related to trauma exposure.

Toward improved understanding and treatment of self-injurious behaviors in autistic individuals with profound intellectual disability

This commentary examines self-injurious behaviors (SIB) in autistic individuals with moderate-to-profound intellectual disability, emphasizing the role of emotion regulation difficulties and co-occurring internalizing symptoms. The authors propose a conceptual framework linking environmental triggers, emotional responses, and regulation strategies to SIB manifestation, and discuss implications for future longitudinal research, measurement development, and clinical interventions.

Validation of the Jordanian Bruininks-Oseretsky Test of Motor Proficiency Second Edition Brief Form for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder

This study validated an Arabic adaptation of the BOT-2BF, a motor proficiency assessment, in 140 Jordanian children aged 4-8 years (70 with ASD, 70 without disabilities). The adapted scale demonstrated acceptable construct validity, reliability, and discriminant validity, representing the first Arabic adaptation and first evidence of the instrument's utility for assessing motor skills in children with autism.

BottegaMente: An Italian Internship Program for Autistic Spectrum Disorder Transition to Employment

This exploratory study evaluated a nationwide Italian internship program (BottegaMente) involving 82 autistic participants aged 13-36, measuring impacts on adaptive functioning, emotion regulation, and quality of life before and after participation. Results showed the program effectively enhanced adaptive skills in home life and work domains, suggesting pre-employment internship programs may improve outcomes for autistic adolescents and young adults.

Autistic traits associated with post-traumatic stress symptoms and suicidality in autism spectrum conditions and anorexia nervosa

This study examined 184 participants across autism, anorexia nervosa, and control groups using standardized assessment tools, finding that autistic traits are significantly associated with trauma/stress symptoms and elevated suicide risk. The results suggest anorexia nervosa may represent an atypical autism presentation in women, with trauma-related symptoms mediating the relationship between autistic traits and suicidality.

The Effects of Hearing One's Own Name on Subsequent Attention to Visual Stimuli in Autistic and Neurotypical Children: An ERP Study

This EEG study compared brain responses in autistic and neurotypical children (aged 3-7) when hearing their own name versus unfamiliar names, measuring event-related potentials (ERPs) during auditory and visual tasks. While autistic children did not show the typical enhanced P300 response to their own name, they demonstrated increased attention to visual objects following name presentation, suggesting covert name recognition despite absence of overt behavioral responses like head-turning.

Systematic Reviews on Eating Disorders and Autism Spectrum Disorder Emphasize a Call to Further Expand High-Quality Research

Two systematic reviews examine the relationship between autistic traits, ASD diagnosis, and eating disorders, finding elevated autistic traits in anorexia nervosa but mixed evidence for ASD prevalence. Both autistic traits and formal ASD diagnosis appear to complicate eating disorder treatment experiences, with authors advocating for methodologically rigorous future research in this understudied area.
