Telehealth-Enabled Versus In-Person Parent-Mediated Behavioral Treatment for Challenging Behaviors in Children With ASD
The purpose of the research is to determine whether parent-mediated behavior therapy for challenging behavior commonly displayed by children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) can be as effective when delivered via telehealth as when delivered in-person.
Targeting the Neurobiology of RRB in Autism Using N-acetylcysteine: Single-dose
The goal of this study is to target the neurobiology of restricted and repetitive behaviors in children with autism spectrum disorder using N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a well-tolerated nutritional supplement that has shown promise for reducing symptom severity in recent small-scale trials. The findings from this research will shed light on the …
Targeting the Neurobiology of RRB in Autism Using N-acetylcysteine: Trial
The goal of this study is to target the neurobiology of restricted and repetitive behaviors in children with autism spectrum disorder using N-acetylcysteine (NAC), a well-tolerated nutritional supplement that has shown promise for reducing symptom severity in recent small-scale trials. The findings from this research will shed light on the …
Role of GABAergic Transmission in Auditory Processing in Autism Spectrum Disorder
Background Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental syndrome. Researchers think brain development may be controlled by gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). They want to learn how abnormalities in the GABA system may contribute to ASD. Objective To see if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) creates short-term changes in how different …
STEPS Implementation Trial
This study will inform understanding of how to support emerging adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The investigators will use a theoretically informed and research-based transition support program developed for people with ASD and test how effective it is when delivered by community agencies. Results will provide information on the …
Adaptation of the NEAR Cognitive Remediation Method to Child and Adult Autism by Including Social Scenarios and Skills
The investigators currently provide the NEAR method (neuropsychological educational approach to cognitive remediation) for people with neurocognitive difficulties, without distinguishing between ASD and schizophrenia. However, the NEAR method does not address social cognition in the stimulated functions. The aim of this study is to add social scenarios to this neurocognitive …
Autism Research Project With Non-Invasive Near-Infrared Light Stimulation
The investigators have previously shown that the administration of low-level infrared light is a safe and non-invasive procedure which improves cognition and emotion, as well as enhances brain metabolic activity. Based on previous studies, the investigators hypothesize that this methodology, called low-level light therapy or photobiomodulation, could be used to …
High Definition Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation of Right Inferior Frontal Gyrus to Improve Social Impairments in Children with Autism
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if high definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) of right inferior frontal gyrus works to improve social impairments in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It will also learn about the underlying brain mechanism. The main questions it aims to answer …
Validation Study of the Performance of the French Version of the Autism Mental Status Examination Scale as a Tool for Identifying Autism Spectrum Disorder in Adults
To improve diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), expert centers have been set up in France since 2000/2010. However, waiting times in these centers are long, mean of 19 months for adults, and more than half the people seen do not end up with an ASD, even though referral by …
Telehealth Intervention for Infants With Prodromes of ASD
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by social-communication and interaction deficits and restricted, repetitive patterns of interests and behavior. It is frequently associated with heterogeneous comorbidities including physical, mental, and neurodevelopmental disorders, which can result in a substantial burden on individuals, families, and society. Early prodromal …
