Among these, many autistic children often have worse academic outcomes than expected given their cognitive abilities which can create repercussions in their life outcomes and well-being that can extend to adolescence and adulthood. Even though the research on the reasons for the academic underachievement of children with autism is scarce, we hypothesize that it may be due to external factors such as pedagogical practices as well as individual factors such as the children\u2019s socio-emotional difficulties. Indeed, research with neurotypical children shows that problems with emotion regulation are linked to impairments in cognitive processes that lead to poorer academic performance and autistic children have frequent emotion regulation difficulties. Furthermore, teachers report that autistic children present frequent behavioural and emotional problems in the classroom. In addition, language and cognitive processes are interconnected and emotions can foster that relation. Therefore, proficiency in different languages and the language in which multilingual children express their emotions may have an impact on cognitive processes such as children\u2019s memory. Given Luxembourg\u2019s multilingual context, it is important to understand the potential effects emotions and language can have in children\u2019s cognitive and academic performance. The aim of this project is to first assess the link between emotional ability and multilingualism, to cognitive and academic performance among autistic and neurotypical children. Second, it aims to understand how the expression of emotions in different languages (mother tongue vs second language) can affect the academic and cognitive performance of children. The results of the ASA project will enable to better understand factors affecting the academic underachievement of children with autism and define strategies to tackle it.","rp_start_date":"2020-01-01 10:12:26","rp_duration":45,"rp_main_funder":"FNR","rp_other_funders":[],"rp_external_partners":["Stanford University"],"rp_keywords":["Autism","Education","School","Well-being","Academic success","Emotions","Multilingualism"],"rp_members":[{"name":"Andreia COSTA","isPI":true,"isExternal":false,"featuredImageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/person-image\/NTAwMDI4NjJfX0FuZHJlaWEgQ09TVEE=","detailsPageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/people\/andreia-costa\/","id":"50002862"},{"name":"Ma\u00efte FRANCO","isPI":false,"isExternal":false,"featuredImageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/person-image\/NTAwMTkzMDRfX01hw690ZSBGUkFOQ08=","detailsPageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/people\/maite-franco\/","id":"50019304"},{"name":"Georges STEFFGEN","isPI":false,"isExternal":false,"featuredImageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/person-image\/NTAwMDMxNDNfX0dlb3JnZXMgU1RFRkZHRU4=","detailsPageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/people\/georges-steffgen\/","id":"50003143"},{"name":"Adelheid HU","isPI":false,"isExternal":false,"featuredImageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/person-image\/NTAwMDIwMTBfX0FkZWxoZWlkIEhV","detailsPageUrl":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/en\/people\/adelheid-hu\/","id":"50002010"},{"name":"James Gross","isPI":false,"isExternal":true,"featuredImageUrl":"","detailsPageUrl":"","entity":"Stanford University"}]},"research-project-status":[271],"research-project-type":[263],"field-of-interest":[440],"organisation":[150,147,158],"authorship":[295,296,107,111,109],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches\/15479"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/core-researches"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/295"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches\/15479\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":16565,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/core-researches\/15479\/revisions\/16565"}],"wp:authorship":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/295"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/296"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/107"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/111"},{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/109"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15484"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15479"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"research-project-status","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/research-project-status?post=15479"},{"taxonomy":"research-project-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/research-project-type?post=15479"},{"taxonomy":"field-of-interest","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/field-of-interest?post=15479"},{"taxonomy":"organisation","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uni.lu\/fhse-en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/organisation?post=15479"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
