Relations among activity participation, friendship, and internalizing problems in children with autism spectrum disorder

Listed in DataCite

Social interaction difficulties in children with autism spectrum disorder can be challenging, especially during adolescence.

Description

In addition, high rates of comorbid internalizing disorders in autism spectrum disorder can lead to social isolation. With limited social activity participation, social deficits and internalizing problems in autism spectrum disorder may be related to participation, exposure, and practice with friends.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relations among friendship, activity participation, and internalizing problems. Participants included 129 children with autism spectrum disorder between the ages of 6 and 18 years. Measures of friendship, sport, hobby, and club participation, and internalizing problems were assessed.
