Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2016/Restricted interests and anxiety in children with autistic spectrum disorders

Comments
Hi there! I think your topic is really interesting and am looking forward to seeing where you take it and reading the finished chapter :)

I found this article that explores whether the relationship between restricted and repetitive behaviours and anxiety in ASD is mediated by reactions to sensory stimuli - http://www.sciencedirect.com.ezproxy.canberra.edu.au/science/article/pii/S1750946713001979 (study 2 is the relevant part of the article).

Hopefully you find it useful for your book chapter :).--U3100368 (discuss • contribs) 02:41, 30 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi. Your book chapter is really interesting and you have quite a lot of content already. I notice you have not put in prevalence material yet. I came across an article which might be of interest. It utilises Medicare data to consider the prevalence of ASD in Australia. The article also makes an interesting point about age at diagnosis with ASD. According to the article children can be diagnosed reliably at 2 years, but the most frequent age was 5 years, and the average was around 4 years, meaning that some children are encountering delayed diagnosis.

Hopefully this article is of use. --U985072 (discuss • contribs) 08:51, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Edited a table
Hey there,

I noticed in your source code for your harmful and helpful table, that it looked like you'd tried to center the harmful and helpful cells. I added some code to the cell that contained the bolded harmful word, which centered it. If you don't like, the syntax can be removed through the edit source button.

Hope this was helpful, --Muzz2016 (discuss • contribs) 04:32, 6 October 2016 (UTC)

Hi, Well done on your chapter it's really good! I like how in depth it is, you've got really good information and references. I did notice it is really long, you've got about 1200 words to cull (if UG)! As it is motivation and emotion, your areas to reduce might have to be defining ASD and also the comorbidity part. You can assume it's a reasonably intelligent layperson, so probably don't need as much info in these areas. Good luck! It's a really good chapter and I know it'll be hard reducing it because it's all really good research! :) --U3083764 (discuss • contribs) 11:05, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
