Adaptive Functioning, Social Skills, Mental Health, and Personal Strengths among Adolescents with Prenatal Alcohol Exposure (PAE)

Abstract: Three key areas of dysfunction reported as having a significant impact on how adolescents with Prenatal Alcohol Exposure (PAE) navigate their teen years and work towards independence are: mental health, social skills, and adaptive functioning. However, little is known about how adolescents with PAE perceive their own functioning relative to others, and what they and others see as potential strengths on which they may build. Participants included 32 adolescents (17 male, 15 female); 31% had confirmed prenatal e… Show more

“…Additionally, children with ADHD tend to rate themselves as having fewer executive function difficulties as compared to parent ratings (Steward et al, 2017). This finding has also been reported in FASD with ratings of adaptive functioning and social skills (Mariasine et al, 2014). There is a trend of significant disagreement among respondents in other clinical populations (Hughes et al, 2009; Mahone et al, 2002; McCurdy et al, 2016).…”

“…This study is one of the first to examine the interrater reliability of behavioral executive functioning ratings among multiple informants in a sample of children with prenatal alcohol exposure, ADHD, and typically developing controls (Aim 2). We hypothesized that similar to the majority of findings in ADHD (Blake-Greenberg, 2003;Kenealy, 2002;Mares et al, 2007) and those conducted in FASD (Mariasine et al, 2014), interrater agreement would be poor for children with prenatal alcohol exposure. However, this was not the case as results from the correlational analyses reveal that parents and teachers show a high level of agreement on executive function ratings of children with prenatal alcohol exposure.…”

“…They identified several positive characteristics, talents, and abilities of their children and adolescents with FASD, including gifts in art, music, and athletics; and being loyal, friendly, kind, sweet, compassionate, and forgiving (Sanders & Buck, 2010 ). Mariasine et al ( 2014 ) analyzed caregiver and adolescent ratings of adolescents’ adaptive function, social skills, mental health, and personal strengths. Adolescents rated themselves as having affective strength, or the ability to give and receive affection.…”

“…Deficits in self-regulation mean that individuals with FASD often find it more difficult to control their emotions and are more likely to have behavioural outbursts (e.g. destroying/throwing objects; Mariasine et al, 2014). Additionally, justice-involved individuals with FASD were one and a half times more likely than those from the matched control group to be charged with public order offences (i.e.…”
