The Effectiveness of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy Group Intervention (Navigator ACT) for Parents of Children With Neurodevelopmental Disabilities: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT High levels of parental stress and psychological inflexibility are common among caregivers raising children with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Navigator ACT is a group‐based treatment developed to increase psychological flexibility and reduce the impact of stress among parents of children with various disabilities (e.g., autism spectrum ...

Atypical Predictive Processing Is Associated With Sensory Over‐Responsivity in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism is characterized by sensory processing atypicalities including sensory over‐responsivity (SOR), a heightened negative response to sensory stimuli. Although the neural mechanisms underlying SOR are not fully understood, SOR has been associated with sensory‐limbic hyper‐reactivity during sensory stimulation.

Informational and Normative Influence on Conformity in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This preregistered study examined whether adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show reduced social conformity and whether any such reduction depends on the type of social influence. Social conformity—the tendency to adjust one's judgments to align with those of others—is typically driven by normative (acceptance‐seeking) and ...

Does Ongoing Task Load Influence Prospective Remembering in Autism Spectrum Disorders?

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Prospective memory (PM) refers to the cognitive ability to remember to carry out intended actions in the future. The present study investigated PM performance in autistic and non‐autistic adults as well as the impact of the cognitive load of the ongoing task on PM performance.

Lower Striatal and Cortical Calretinin Interneuron Density Associated With Altered Social Behavior in Cntnap2 Knockout Mice

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Variants in the CNTNAP2 gene, encoding the cell adhesion molecule CASPR2, have been identified as genetic risk factors for autism spectrum disorder (ASD). However, the mechanisms through which CNTNAP2 dysfunction alters circuit function remain unknown.

Beyond the Outburst: Charting a New Frontier for Understanding and Treating Irritability in Autistic Adults

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irritability is a prevalent and impairing feature associated with autism, yet remains poorly understood, particularly in adults. Drawing heavily on insights translated from pediatric and transdiagnostic literatures, we propose that irritability in autistic individuals often reflects a psychophysiological stress or threat response, rooted in a ...

Linking Brain Morphometry to Psychometric Measures and Energy‐Metabolic Biomarkers in Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorder

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with differences in neurodevelopment and altered metabolism, yet the interplay between brain morphometry, mitochondrial and energy metabolism biomarkers, and autistic traits in adults remains poorly understood. This study investigates the link between brain structure, psychometric measures, and both

Motor Disorders in Autism: From Comorbidity to Core Criterion

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While repetitive movements are recognized as a diagnostic hallmark of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in frameworks such as the DSM and ICD, other motor disturbances, including gait atypicalities and postural control difficulties, have historically been overlooked or framed as secondary comorbidities.

Personalized Lifespan Approach to Autism Assessment: A Clinical and System Framework for Developmentally Informed Assessment Across the Life‐Course

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The increasing prevalence of autism has led to considerable system challenges as specialist‐driven approaches have struggled to keep pace. Recent research has challenged status quo models by demonstrating that community‐based pediatric clinicians can accurately diagnose autism in young children. This research provides an opportunity to further

The Unique Roles of Executive Function in Co‐Occurring Psychopathologies in Autism

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) often experience co‐occurring psychiatric conditions, such as anxiety and attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which significantly impair daily functioning. However, the underlying mechanisms linking these conditions to core ASD features remain poorly understood.
