Mapping the developmental trajectories of chronic offenders in Canada
The current study analyzed convicted chronic offenders that were charged with at least two offences in the region of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada, between 2006 and 2019 (N = 11,426) in order to investigate the relationship between specialization (i.e., committing the same crime type repeatedly) and …

Comparing Developmental Trajectories of Loophole Behavior in Autistic and Neurotypical Children
… and offset age were not. This could point to a developmental trajectory that occurs later for autistic children compared to neurotypical children, but overall demonstrates that autistic individuals have the ability to engage with loophole behavior.

Developmental Trajectories of Effortful Control In Young Boys With Fragile X Syndrome
… of the current study is to better understand the developmental trajectories of effortful control in boys with FXS. Second, the study used a multidimensional approach to investigating this developmental trajectory by examining the role of adaptive behaviors and autistic symptoms in the development …

Using nested structures to select models for developmental trajectories of cognitive abilities in adulthood
Change over time can be modeled through a variety of statistical techniques including, but not limited to, linear or quadratic slope-intercept (SI), repeated-measures MANOVA, and single-factor growth models. Choice of method for modeling longitudinal data is often based on convention or familiarity …

The Paternal Profile in the Context of ASD: Characteristics, Developmental Trajectories, and Predictors of Change
… intensive intervention that may guarantee better developmental trajectories for children with ASD. Consequently, the project's second aim is to assess the impact of intervention with parental involvement through cognitive, socio-communicative, and dyadic behavioral measures using a longitudinal …

Developmental trajectories and correlates of executive function in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder
… thesis was the first to date to investigate the developmental trends of both hot and cool EF as well as “real-life” EF abilities (as rated by teachers) across childhood and adolescence in ASD and typical development. The EF developmental relations to ToM and adaptive skills were also examined …

Investigating the modality specific cognitive abilities predictive of arithmetic competence, using a developmental trajectories approach
… maths learning disability: n = 40), within a developmental trajectories approach. Despite similar difficulties in arithmetic, differential areas of deficit were observed. Deficits were related to both visual and verbal abilities. Findings highlight the importance of future research overtly …

Social Attention in Young Typically Developing and At-Risk Children: Eye Tracking Paradigms and Implications for Understanding Developmental Trajectories
The adaptive trait of perceiving and apportioning eye movements and gaze behaviors forms one of the basic foundations of social cognition in infants. Thus, diminished eye gaze in individuals is known to be an early behavioral risk marker for autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Research studies in ASD …
