A cohort study about the development and developmental disorders of social cognition in infancy and childhood

IRT下计算的沟通得分在18个月前迅速上升，到7岁时保持逐渐上升。自18个月大以来，自闭症儿童与正常发育儿童之间的差距越来越大。与此同时，自闭症儿童之间的个体差异也在扩大。我们研究中的自闭症检查表可以检测出70%的18个月大的自闭症儿童。基于IRT的沟通得分与基于ADOS的自闭症严重程度得分呈负相关。来自各行各业的人为自闭症儿童提供了每个生命阶段的发展治疗。在这个社区进行的这些临床实践现在被称为“伊托岛计划”。

Communication scores calculated under IRT increases rapidly by 18 months of age, and then, keeps gradually increasing by 7 years of age. A widening gap between children with autism and typically developing children is observed since 18 months of age. At the same time, the individual differences among children with autism grows. The checklist for autism in our study can detect 70 percentages of children with autism at 18 months of age. There is an inverse correlation between communication scores based on IRT and severity scores of autism based on ADOS. Developmental treatment according to each life stage has provided to children with autism by those who from many lines of work. These clinical practices conducted in this community are now well-known as“Itoshima Project".
