- W2468483276 abstract "The current study purported to investigate executive function and social cognitive weaknesses in the Broad Autism Phenotype (BAP) population and identify how weaknesses in either of these areas could influence coping repertoire and coping flexibility in parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders or Other Developmental Disabilities. Two samples were collected; Sample 1 (N=147) completed neuropsychological measures and self-report questionnaires of executive function and social cognition. Sample 2 (online only; N=104) completed a subset of these measures. Results indicated no differences in proportion of the Broad Autism Phenotype in parents of children with Autism Spectrum Disorders in either sample. With regard to the neuropsychological measures utilized in Sample 1, Letter-Number Sequencing score (working memory) only was predictive of total correct on the Reading the Mind in the Eyes Task (RMET); no other neuropsychological measures predicted BAP characteristics, nor were these measures predictive of self-reported coping strategy use or scores on a measure of social inference making. However, in both samples, self-report of Planning and Organizing behaviour as measured by the Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Functioning (BRIEF) predicted Rigidity; BRIEF Working Memory score was predictive of Pragmatic Language in both samples as well. Interestingly, BRIEF Working Memory was not predictive of the total correct on RMET. RMET total correct score did not differ between those with and without the BAP Coping strategy use, nor did RMET significantly predict Pragmatic Language scores. However, for Sample 2 only, RMET response latency was significantly shorter in those with the BAP. Although Planning and Cognition and Coping in the Broad Autism Phenotype v Organizing best predicted Problem Focused coping strategy use in both Sample 1 and Sample 2, overall coping strategy use was best predicted by Aloofness in both samples. The results of this study suggest some separation of social and non-social skills (taskbased or academic/abstract) at a basic level, but at higher levels of reasoning these skills are less separable and are likely both mediated by executive functions. These results also suggest that that those with the BAP may have weaknesses with regard to more complex social interactions. Finally, these results indicate global weaknesses in executive functioning in the BAP as assessed by self-report, although the importance of planning weaknesses as a specific marker for the BAP was also supported. Cognition and Coping in the Broad Autism Phenotype vi DEDICATION For Tulip and Darla Ann, synactically a dissimilitude from tedium vitae. Cognition and Coping in the Broad Autism Phenotype vii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The researcher would like to acknowledge: All participants who took part in this study. Autism Ontario, for awarding me the grant for my dissertation. Brian Camodeca, for doing some elementary html coding for which he was promptly and sufficiently renumerated. Corinne Hale, Ph.D., for setting a precedent, providing support, and giving advice in many areas. Cory Saunders, Ph.D., for his offhand comment that inadvertently led to my interest in neuropsychology. Deborah Camodeca, for my verbal IQ, ergasiomania, and maybe being my biggest fan. Debra Barrie, for recruiting participants for my dissertation and fishbowling with me. Dennis Jackson, Ph.D, for facilitating epiphanies via statistical tachydidaxy because I was interested in research. John Strang, Ph.D., for helping me acquire the background knowledge necessary for my dissertation. Shawna Scott, for recruiting participants for my dissertation." @default.
