Fine motor skill predicts expressive language in infant siblings of children with autism.
We investigated whether fine motor and expressive language skills are related in the later-born siblings of children with autism (heightened-risk, HR infants) who are at increased risk for language delays. We observed 34 HR infants longitudinally from 12 to 36 months. We used parent report and standardized observation measures to assess fine motor skill from 12 to 24 months in HR infants (Study...
متن کاملVariation in vocal-motor development in infant siblings of children with autism.
In this study we examined early motor, vocal, and communicative development in a group of younger siblings of children diagnosed with autism (Infant Siblings). Infant Siblings and no-risk comparison later-born infants were videotaped at home with a primary caregiver each month from 5 to 14 months, with follow-up at 18 months.

متن کاملMaternal gesture use and language development in infant siblings of children with autism spectrum disorder.
Impairments in language and communication are an early-appearing feature of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), with delays in language and gesture evident as early as the first year of life. Research with typically developing populations highlights the importance of both infant and maternal gesture use in infants' early language development. The current study explores the gesture production of in...
متن کاملSensory and motor behaviors of infant siblings of children with and without autism.
We compared the sensory and motor behaviors of typically developing infants with those of infant siblings of children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD), who are considered high risk for the disorder, to explore potential sensory and motor markers for use in early diagnosis of ASD. We compared frequencies of sensory and motor behaviors during 10-min, videotaped, infant-mother play sessions an...
متن کاملComparison of Motor Skills in At-risk with Autism Spectrum Disorder Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and Typical Development Children
