Health Care Disparities Among Autistic LGBTQ+ People
Autism in AdulthoodAhead of Print Free Access Abstract Background: Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, or queer (LGBTQ+) people and disabled people experience disparities in access to health care compared with others. However, we have yet to understand how health care disparities may be further exacerbated at the intersection of disability and LGBTQ+ identity, particularly among autistic people.

Exploring a Novel Tool to Measure Wandering Behavior in the Early Childhood Classroom
Introduction Occupational therapists (OTs) are familiar with how differences in gross and fine motor patterns impact participation in daily activities among children with developmental disabilities (DD; e.g., Hofmann, n.d.; Martino & Lape, 2021). Given OTs role in supporting child participation in the classroom, it is important to understand other types of movement patterns, and how these impact child engagement in the classroom.
It’s time to close the research to practice gap in autism: The need for implementation science
Over 15 years ago, Lord and colleagues (2005) identified the challenges of evaluating interventions for autism, and Smith and colleagues (2007) subsequently proposed guidelines to generate empirical evidence for behavioral and psychosocial interventions. Since then, intervention research has proliferated (Steinbrenner et al., 2020), but the gap between research and practice remains wide (Dingfelder & Mandell, 2011; Odom et al., 2020).
Eating Behavior and Inhibitory Control in Children: An Examination of Convergent and Ecological Validity
Objective: Inhibition plays a critical role in eating behavior, but methods of measuring inhibitory control are often criticized because they can be difficult to apply to daily life. The go/no-go task, which is considered a direct measure of inhibition, is used to understand inhibitory control. However, its ecological validity is unknown.

Do early caregiver concerns differ for girls with autism spectrum disorders?
Given that early caregiver concerns may be different for children who go on to receive a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder versus another developmental disability, early caregiver concerns may differ for girls. Using a community-based sample of children (n?=?241), we examined the extent to which gender differences may be related to caregiver concerns prior to a diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder or other developmental disability.
