Autism Spectrum Disorder01:19

Autism Spectrum Disorder

1.9K
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Modeling in Therapy01:26

Modeling in Therapy

744
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.

Oppositional Defiant Disorder

1.4K
A persistent pattern of angry or irritable mood, defiant behavior, or vindictiveness characterizes Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). Symptoms must occur over at least six months, involve interactions with individuals beyond siblings, and meet specific diagnostic criteria to be clinically significant. The disorder affects emotional regulation, social interactions, and behavior, often manifesting early in life and influencing long-term development and functioning.

Assessment of the Mouth01:26

Assessment of the Mouth

1.6K
A thorough mouth assessment, including inspection and palpation of the lips, gums, tongue, tonsils, uvula, and pharynx, is crucial in detecting potential health issues. Diseases ranging from oral cancer to systemic conditions like diabetes could be identified early through careful oral examination. This article provides a detailed guide on conducting a comprehensive mouth assessment.
Mouth Inspection
The inspection begins with visually examining the mouth for symmetry, color, and size.

Psychosexual Stages of Personality: Oral01:16

Psychosexual Stages of Personality: Oral

3.9K
The oral stage is the initial phase of Sigmund Freud's theory of psychosexual development, occurring from birth to approximately 12 to 18 months. During this period, the infant's mouth serves as the primary source of pleasure, with actions such as sucking, chewing, biting, and drinking playing a crucial role in reducing tension. These activities are essential not only for nourishment but also for the infant's psychological and emotional satisfaction.

Conduct Disorder01:28

Conduct Disorder

932
Conduct disorder is a complex mental health diagnosis characterized by a repetitive and persistent pattern of behavior that violates societal norms, the rights of others, or age-appropriate rules. The diagnostic criteria for conduct disorder require the presence of at least three problematic behaviors within the past 12 months, with at least one occurring in the past six months. These behaviors are grouped into four categories: aggression toward people and animals; destruction of property;...

Summary

Cooperation in oral health screenings for preschool children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is linked to developmental profiles. Lower cognitive functioning and more challenging behaviors significantly reduce cooperation in ASD screenings.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Dentistry
  • Developmental Psychology
  • Public Health

Background:

  • Oral health screenings are crucial for early detection of dental issues in children.
  • Preschool children with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) present unique challenges for health screenings.
  • Understanding factors influencing cooperation is vital for effective public health initiatives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the association between autism developmental profiles and cooperation with oral health screenings in preschool children with ASDs.
  • To identify specific developmental characteristics that predict successful participation in oral health surveys.
  • To inform strategies for improving oral health screening feasibility in this population.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional study involving 347 preschool children with ASDs from 19 Special Child Care Centres in Hong Kong.
  • Data collection included a checklist of autism developmental profiles: cognitive functioning, social skills, communication skills, reading skills, and challenging behaviors.
  • Logistic regression analysis was used to determine associations with cooperation, controlling for age and gender.

Main Results:

  • Cooperation with oral health screening was significantly associated with cognitive functioning (p=0.001), social skills (p=0.002), communication skills (p<0.001), reading skills (p<0.001), and challenging behaviors (p=0.06).
  • Inability to cooperate was strongly linked to higher levels of challenging behaviors (OR 10.50) and lower cognitive functioning (OR 5.29).
  • Older age (in months) positively correlated with increased cooperation (OR 1.06).

Conclusions:

  • The feasibility of conducting population-wide oral health screenings for preschool children with ASDs is influenced by their developmental profiles.
  • Cognitive functioning and challenging behaviors are key factors impacting cooperation during oral health screenings.
  • Tailored approaches considering individual developmental characteristics are necessary for effective oral health surveillance in children with ASDs.
