Abstract

Purpose: The Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) is frequently used in research settings to measure characteristics associated with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). A short version has been developed but not yet tested for certain properties of the full SRS, such as familiality. The purpose of this study was to determine if prior familiality findings for the full SRS can be replicated using the short form by measuring the associations of the parental Social Responsiveness Scale-Short Form (SRS-SF) scores with child ASD diagnoses and child SRS-SF scores.

Methods: We used a nested case-control study within a longitudinal cohort study design. Participants were selected from the Nurses' Health Study II (NHS II). Cases were children of study participants who had been diagnosed with ASD, while controls had not been diagnosed with ASD and were frequency matched by year of birth to cases. 2144 out of 3161 eligible participants returned SRS forms for a child and at least one parent. Participants in NHS II completed SRS forms for their spouses and spouses completed SRS forms for NHS II participants. Parental SRS-SF scores were based on a subset of 16 questions from the SRS. ASD diagnosis among children was reported by the mothers and validated in a subset using the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised, as well as child SRS-SF scores.

Results: Children whose parents both had elevated SRS-SF scores (those in the top 20% of the study distribution) had a higher odds of ASD diagnosis than those who did not have elevated parental scores (OR 2.25; 95% CI 1.41, 3.58). Additionally, children whose fathers had elevated SRS-SF scores had a higher odds of ASD diagnosis (OR 2.18; 95% CI 1.60, 2.97) than those whose fathers scores were not elevated. In sex-stratified analyses, male children with elevated parental SRS-SF scores had a higher odds of ASD diagnosis than those who did not have elevated parental scores. These associations were not as evident among female children. Parental SRS-SF scores also predicted child SRS-SF scores among controls.

Conclusion: These findings are similar to prior findings for the full SRS and support the ability of the SRS-SF to capture familiality of ASD-related traits.

通过社会反应性量表-简表测量特质的家庭传播研究。
目的:社会反应量表(SRS)经常被用于测量自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)的相关特征。目前已开发出一个简短版本,但尚未对完整 SRS 的某些特性(如家族性)进行测试。本研究的目的是通过测量父母的社会反应性量表-简表(SRS-SF)得分与儿童 ASD 诊断和儿童 SRS-SF 得分之间的关联,确定先前在完整 SRS 中发现的家族性是否可以通过简表复制:我们采用了纵向队列研究设计中的巢式病例对照研究。研究对象选自护士健康研究 II(NHS II)。病例是被诊断患有 ASD 的研究参与者的子女,而对照组则未被诊断患有 ASD,并与病例按出生年份进行了频率匹配。在 3161 名符合条件的参与者中,有 2144 人交回了其子女和至少一名父母的 SRS 表。NHS II 的参与者为其配偶填写 SRS 表,而配偶则为 NHS II 的参与者填写 SRS 表。父母的 SRS-SF 分数基于 SRS 中 16 个问题的子集。儿童的 ASD 诊断由母亲报告,并通过自闭症诊断访谈-修订版和儿童 SRS-SF 分数对子集进行验证:父母双方的 SRS-SF 分数都较高(在研究分布中排名前 20%)的儿童被诊断为自闭症的几率要高于父母分数不高的儿童(OR 2.25; 95% CI 1.41, 3.58)。此外,父亲 SRS-SF 分数升高的儿童被诊断为 ASD 的几率(OR 2.18;95% CI 1.60,2.97)也高于父亲分数未升高的儿童。在性别分层分析中,父母 SRS-SF 分数升高的男性儿童被诊断为 ASD 的几率高于父母分数未升高的儿童。这些关联在女性儿童中并不明显。在对照组中,父母的SRS-SF得分也能预测子女的SRS-SF得分:这些研究结果与之前对完整 SRS 的研究结果相似,并支持 SRS-SF 能够捕捉 ASD 相关特征的家族性。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders seeks to advance theoretical and applied research as well as examine and evaluate clinical diagnoses and treatments for autism and related disabilities. JADD encourages research submissions on the causes of ASDs and related disorders, including genetic, immunological, and environmental factors; diagnosis and assessment tools (e.g., for early detection as well as behavioral and communications characteristics); and prevention and treatment options. Sample topics include: Social responsiveness in young children with autism Advances in diagnosing and reporting autism Omega-3 fatty acids to treat autism symptoms Parental and child adherence to behavioral and medical treatments for autism Increasing independent task completion by students with autism spectrum disorder Does laughter differ in children with autism? Predicting ASD diagnosis and social impairment in younger siblings of children with autism The effects of psychotropic and nonpsychotropic medication with adolescents and adults with ASD Increasing independence for individuals with ASDs Group interventions to promote social skills in school-aged children with ASDs Standard diagnostic measures for ASDs Substance abuse in adults with autism Differentiating between ADHD and autism symptoms Social competence and social skills training and interventions for children with ASDs Therapeutic horseback riding and social functioning in children with autism Authors and readers of the Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders include sch olars, researchers, professionals, policy makers, and graduate students from a broad range of cross-disciplines, including developmental, clinical child, and school psychology; pediatrics; psychiatry; education; social work and counseling; speech, communication, and physical therapy; medicine and neuroscience; and public health.
