“…This scatter in ASD individuals was observed by a Chi square test, the magnitude of the min-max differences, and the standard deviation within a single SAED profile. An inhomogeneous developmental profile could already be observed at very early ages [86], [112]–[114]. Our results extend these findings into adulthood.…”

Emotional Development in Adults with Autism and Intellectual Disabilities: A Retrospective, Clinical Analysis

Individuals with intellectual disability (ID) are at risk for additional autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A large amount of research reveals deficits in emotion-related processes that are relevant to social cognition in ASD. However, studies on the structure and level of emotional development (ED) assessing emotional maturity according to the normative trajectory in typically developing children are scares. The level of ED can be evaluated by the ‘Scheme of Appraisal of Emotional Development’ (SAED), a semi-structured interview with a close caregiver. The SAED assesses the level of emotional developmental based on a five stage system in 10 domains, for example, ‘interaction with peers’ or ‘object permanence’, which are conducive to the overall emotional developmental level. This study examined the ED as measured by the SAED in 289 adults (mean age: 36 years) with ID with and without additional ASD. A lower level in ED was observed in ASD/ID combined that corresponded to the ED of typically developing children aged 1.5–3 years versus an ED with a corresponding age of 3–7 years in ID individuals without ASD. Moreover, distinct strengths in ‘object permanence’, and weaknesses in ‘interaction’, ‘verbal communication’, ‘experience of self’, ‘affect differentiation’, ‘anxiety’, and ‘handling of material objects’ led to a characteristic pattern of ED in ASD. SAED domains with highest discriminative power between ID individuals with and without ASD (5/10) were used to predict ASD group membership. The classification using a selection of SAED domains revealed a sensitivity of 77.5% and a specificity of 76.4%. ASD risk increased 2.7-fold with every SAED level. The recognition of delayed and uneven pattern of ED contributes to our understanding of the emotion-related impairments in adults with ID and ASD these individuals. Assessment of intra-individual ED could add value to the standard diagnostic procedures in ID, a population at risk for underdiagnosed ASD.

“…In repeated surgery cases, seizure outcome was assessed as the outcome of the final seizure after the last resective surgery. Global adaptive behavior functioning and social competence skills, including communication, general self-help ability, locomotion, occupation, self-direction, self-help eating and/ or dressing, and socialization, were evaluated at preoperation and 3 times postoperation (<1 year, 2-3 years, and 4-6 years after surgery) by using the Social Maturity Scale 17 in patients who had successful follow-up evaluations.…”

“…Using the Vineland Social Maturity Scale (VSMS), which was the precursor to the Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scales (VABS), Gould (1977) conducted the first study examining the adaptive skills of intellectually disabled children with and without ASD. The ASD children in this study were described as being diagnosed with "early childhood psychosis including autism".…”

The purpose of this study was to systematically examine the social-skills profiles among adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and intellectual disability (ID). Using one-way multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA), three groups (autism, pervasive developmental disorder-not otherwise specified [PDD-NOS], and ID only) were compared on seven global measures of social behavior. There were 72 individuals in each group matched on level of ID, verbal ability, age, and gender. Distinctions were noted in the areas of positive social behaviors and negative nonverbal social behaviors. Those with autism displayed the greatest deficits in these areas, followed by those with PDD-NOS. The results support the notions that social impairment remains a distinct feature of ASD in adults with ID, that autism and PDD-NOS are two conditions on the same spectrum, and that this spectrum is relevant for adults with ID. Implications of the results and directions for future research are discussed.
