Autism Res . 2013 Feb; 6(2):134-43. PMID: 23427091
The Broad Autism Phenotype Questionnaire (BAPQ) was administered to a large community-based sample of biological parents of children with autism (PCAs) and comparison parents (CPs) (n = 1,692). Exploratory factor...

Turner-Brown L, Lam K, Holtzclaw T, Dichter G, Bodfish J
Autism . 2011 Apr; 15(4):437-56. PMID: 21454386
Circumscribed interests (CI) are important and understudied symptoms that affect individuals with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The present study sought to develop quantitative measures of the content, intensity and functional...

Dichter G, Sikich L, Mahorney S, Felder J, Lam K, Turner-Brown L, et al.
Neurocase . 2010 Feb; 16(4):307-16. PMID: 20178033
Autism is characterized by abnormal prefrontal brain activation during cognitive control, a potential biomarker of repetitive behaviors. In this proof-of-principle study, functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) was used to examine...

Dichter G, Radonovich K, Turner-Brown L, Lam K, Holtzclaw T, Bodfish J
J Autism Dev Disord . 2009 Nov; 40(4):448-56. PMID: 19890707
Restricted and repetitive behaviors in autism spectrum disorders have been conceptualized to reflect impaired executive functions. In the present study, we investigated the performance of 6-17-year-old children with and without...

J Autism Dev Disord . 2009 Apr; 39(9):1298-304. PMID: 19396536
Individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) often demonstrate impaired generativity that is thought to mediate repetitive behaviors in autism (Turner in J Child Psychol Psychiatry, 40(6):839-849, 1999a). The present study...

Sasson N, Turner-Brown L, Holtzclaw T, Lam K, Bodfish J
Autism Res . 2009 Apr; 1(1):31-42. PMID: 19360648
Although circumscribed interests are a hallmark characteristic of autism spectrum disorders, providing a means for quantifying their functional impairment has proven difficult. We developed a passive viewing task to measure...

Lam K, Bodfish J, Piven J
J Child Psychol Psychiatry . 2008 Nov; 49(11):1193-200. PMID: 19017031
Background: Restricted repetitive behaviors (RRBs) are a core feature of autism and consist of a variety of behaviors, ranging from motor stereotypies to complex circumscribed interests. The objective of the...

J Autism Dev Disord . 2008 Jun; 39(1):57-66. PMID: 18566881
Restricted repetitive behaviors (RRBs) were examined in a large group of children, adolescents and adults with ASD in order to describe age-related patterns of symptom change and association with specific...

Lam K, Aman M
J Autism Dev Disord . 2006 Oct; 37(5):855-66. PMID: 17048092
A key feature of autism is restricted repetitive behavior (RRB). Despite the significance of RRBs, little is known about their phenomenology, assessment, and treatment. The Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised (RBS-R) is...
