Regression in autism spectrum disorder: A critical overview of retrospective findings and recommendations for future research
2019, Neuroscience and Biobehavioral ReviewsCitation Excerpt :In most retrospective studies using a clear distinction between losses in language capacities and social skills, it was found that it is common for children with loss of verbal forms and functions to also lose skills in social development (e.g., response to name and eye contact; Goldberg et al., 2003; Lord et al., 2004; Ozonoff et al., 2005). On the other hand, since most children who lose skills of social interest and engagement have not yet acquired language at the time of regression, a substantial amount of children only show regression in social development (Goldberg et al., 2003; Hansen et al., 2008; Kurita, 1985; Ozonoff et al., 2005). Additionally, very few differences between children who lose both skills in language and social domains and those who only lose social skills have been found (Lord et al., 2004; Luyster et al., 2005).
The Early Origins of Autism
2017, Child and Adolescent Psychiatric Clinics of North AmericaLanguage regression in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders
2014, International Journal of Pediatric OtorhinolaryngologyCitation Excerpt :Kurita [30] and Rutter [33] stated that around 20–40% of children, who had regression, lost all expressive language. Although regression age of language domain was 19.16 months in present study however large scale study done by Kurita [30] found 37.2% of 261 children lost speech preceding to 30 months of age. Wilson et al. [21] stated that the parents of children with autism reported language regression between 18 and 24 months of age, and 95% before age 3 years which was also similar to current findings.
