Parents and teachers of 20 children with developmental delays, 24 through 38 months of age, from an early education program in Columbus, Ohio, were interviewed using the Adaptive Behavior Scale for Infants and Early Childhood. Significant differences were found between some of the ratings over the 23 domain and 11 subdomain scores, specifically in regard to sex of the child and length of time of the child's participation in the program. Parents provided higher ratings than did teachers on some domains. In general, parents and teachers tended to agree on the overall adaptive functional levels.

Feature selection (FS) is a key process in many pattern-recognition tasks, which reduces dimensionality by eliminating redundant or irrelevant features. However, for complex high-dimensional issues, traditional FS methods cannot find the ideal feature combination. To overcome this disadvantage, this paper presents a multispiral whale optimization algorithm (MSWOA) for feature selection.

Intelligent systems are those in which behavior is determined by environmental inputs, and actions are taken to maximize the probability of achieving specific goals. Intelligent systems are widely applied across various fields, particularly in distributed intelligent systems. At the same time, due to the extensive interaction with user data, intelligent systems face significant challenges regarding security.

Available evidence from animal studies suggests that placental serotonin plays an important role in proper fetal development and programming by altering brain circuit formation, which later translates into altered abnormal adult behaviors. Several environmental stimuli, including stress and maternal inflammation, affect placental and, hence, fetal serotonin levels and thus may disturb fetal brain development. We investigated the effect of prenatal stress of varying intensities on the formation of adaptive behaviors in mouse offspring and the role of placental serotonin in these processes.

Time perception is a fundamental cognitive function essential for adaptive behavior and shared across species. The neural mechanisms underlying time perception, particularly its neuromodulation, remain debated. In this review, we examined the role of the serotonergic system in time perception (at the scale of seconds and minutes), building a translational bridge between human and non-human animal studies.

This present study focuses on analyzing the adaptive behaviors of individuals on the autism spectrum as perceived by parents and teachers of these individuals. This study was conducted in Poland with the use of the ABAS-3 (Adaptive Behavior Assessment System). The ABAS-3 tool involves both parents (or primary caregivers) and teachers in the diagnostic process and monitoring of adaptive development.
