  • Psychological well-being and coping in mothers of youths with autism, Down syndrome, or fragile X syndrome (614 citations)
  • Trajectory of development in adolescents and adults with autism (402 citations)
  • Language development in Down syndrome: from the prelinguistic period to the acquisition of literacy. (253 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Developmental psychology, Fragile X syndrome, Cognition, Autism and Intellectual disability. His work in Developmental psychology addresses issues such as Cognitive psychology, which are connected to fields such as Sentence. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Young adult, Anxiety, Clinical psychology, Down syndrome and Developmental disorder.

The various areas that Leonard J Abbeduto examines in his Down syndrome study include Coping, Pediatrics and Audiology. Leonard J Abbeduto has researched Cognition in several fields, including Interpersonal communication and Comprehension. Specifically, his work in Autism is concerned with the study of Autism spectrum disorder.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Developmental psychology (57.45%)
  • Fragile X syndrome (52.66%)
  • Cognition (30.32%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2016-2021)?

  • Fragile X syndrome (52.66%)
  • Autism spectrum disorder (18.09%)
  • Intellectual disability (21.81%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Leonard J Abbeduto focuses on Fragile X syndrome, Autism spectrum disorder, Intellectual disability, Clinical psychology and Developmental psychology. Leonard J Abbeduto merges many fields, such as Fragile X syndrome and FMR1, in his writings. His research investigates the connection between Autism spectrum disorder and topics such as Young adult that intersect with issues in Symptom severity.

His Clinical psychology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Reliability, Clinical trial and Cognition. The concepts of his Cognition study are interwoven with issues in Down syndrome and Lexical diversity. His study of Nonverbal communication is a part of Developmental psychology.

Between 2016 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • SPARK: A US Cohort of 50,000 Families to Accelerate Autism Research (70 citations)
  • Updated report on tools to measure outcomes of clinical trials in fragile X syndrome. (58 citations)
  • Outcome Measures for Clinical Trials in Down Syndrome. (36 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Cognition
  • Developmental psychology
  • Psychiatry

Leonard J Abbeduto mainly focuses on Intellectual disability, Autism spectrum disorder, Fragile X syndrome, Autism and Clinical psychology. His work deals with themes such as Developmental psychology, Observational study, Clinical trial and Quality of life, which intersect with Intellectual disability. Fragile X syndrome is closely attributed to Variety in his work.

His study in Autism is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Young adult, Medical education and Anxiety. The Clinical psychology study combines topics in areas such as Cognition and Neuropsychology. His Cognition study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Reliability and Down syndrome.
