Description
Summary:The objectives of this study were to characterize the bibliometric indicators of scientific productivity on adaptive behavior (AB) in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) during the year 2021. The PubMed database was used to summarize information from quantitative scientific articles (cross-sectional, longitudinal and experimental) and reviews (bibliographic, systematic review and meta-analysis). The data collected for each of the articles were: year of publication, journal name, country, language of publication and type of published document (cross-sectional study, longitudinal, experimental, biographical review, systematic review and meta-analysis). The United States (USA) published more articles than any other country in the world (n = 28), followed by Italy with 13 studies, China and Spain with six studies. A total of 44 scientific journals were identified that have published a total of 89 scientific articles related to AB in children and adolescents with ASD. Regarding the type of published paper, 63 quantitative studies were identified (cross-sectional studies, 9 longitudinal studies, 15 experimental studies). In addition, 14 literature reviews, 9 systematic reviews, and 3 systematic reviews/meta-analyses were identified. These results suggest practitioners and researchers to address and decide where to read and publish scientific articles related to AB in youth with ASD The objectives of this study were to characterize the bibliometric indicators of scientific productivity on adaptive behavior (AB) in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) during the year 2021.
