“…Behavioral disturbances, including self-injurious behaviors (SIB), are frequently reported in ASD (Ando and Yoshimura 1979; Baghdadli et al 2003; Duerden et al 2012; Minshawi et al 2014a; Rattaz et al 2015; Soke et al 2016; Weiss 2002). …”

In this study, we explored potential associations among self-injurious behaviors (SIB) and a diverse group of protective and risk factors in children with autism spectrum disorder from two databases: Autism and Developmental Disabilities Monitoring (ADDM) Network and the Autism Speaks-Autism Treatment Network (AS-ATN). The presence of SIB was determined from children’s records in ADDM and a parent questionnaire in AS-ATN. We used multiple imputation to account for missing data and a nonlinear mixed model with site as a random effect to test for associations. Despite differences between the two databases, similar associations were found; SIB were associated with developmental, behavioral, and somatic factors. Implications of these findings are discussed in relation to possible etiology, future longitudinal studies, and clinical practice.

“…Early studies suggested that SIB occurs in approximately between 7-12% of all people with ID (range: 3% to 30%; [8,[21][22][23][24][25]). Recent estimates of the prevalence of SIB in those with autism suggest it occurs in average in 27.7% of individuals [26]. Higher rates are reported in genetic syndromes [27]: SIB is a hallmark of Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome [28], 94.8% in Smith-Magenis Syndrome [18], 73.9% in Cri du Chat Syndrome [18], 55.3% in Cornelia de Lange syndrome [18], 64% in Lowe Syndrome [18,27], 73% in Prader-Willi Syndrome [18], 54.8% in Fragile-X Syndrome [18], and 45% in Angelman Syndrome [18,27].…”

Self-injurious behavior (SIB) is a broad term describing a behavior that causes (or potentially produces) physical harm to oneself. This behavior is described in individuals intellectual and developmental disabilities, including those with autism. SIB is a severe clinical condition that produces serious medical consequences and limits life opportunities for the persons and those who care for them. Research confirms that applied behavior analysis based approaches designed to identify controlling variables of SIB, can lead to effective interventions. Current knowledge indicates that across individuals, SIB varies along a continuum of relative environmental-biological influence. Additional research is needed to identify how medication can be used in concert with behavioral treatment, and to better understand the biological variables that are associated with the occurrence and maintenance of SIB.

Utilising a diverse clinic-referred sample and standardised diagnostic tools, this study explored retrospective and current correlate risk markers of SIB in individuals with ASD. In addition to impairments in current functioning, specific early developmental delays and perinatal risk factors were preliminarily associated with the presence of SIB in individuals with ASD. Together these findings suggest that a set of specific characteristics may be related to both early risk and concurrent manifestation of SIB. Identifying this set of characteristics in early development may lead to faster identification and better intervention services, but future work utilising longitudinal design and multivariate analysis is warranted.
