Abstract

The aim of this study was to document information from allied health clinicians about children on their caseload with autism spectrum disorders and feeding difficulties. An electronic survey was disseminated to clinicians working with this group around Australia, where 150 responses were returned and 96 were able to be analysed. Variability in responses was observed for service delivery models, frequency of input, referral reasons, and intervention choices. The majority of respondents identified limited-to-average knowledge of feeding therapy options for this population. Clinician confidence was significantly correlated with perceived therapy success. Results of the survey suggest a need for clinical guidelines in the area to direct practice. Low levels of clinician confidence and perceived therapy success also highlight a need for ongoing research and training.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 19 April 2013.
All research outputs
#15,740,505
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Advances in Speech Language Pathology
#582
of 832 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#122,049
of 211,572 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Advances in Speech Language Pathology
#10
of 15 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 37th percentile – i.e., 37% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 832 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.6. This one is in the 28th percentile – i.e., 28% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 211,572 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 15 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 33rd percentile – i.e., 33% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
