The search term you should be using is owners. specifically the email address of the user how you are after as owner

'XXX@gmail.com' in owners

Or if you are looking for the currently authenticated user then use

'me' in owners

To find folders you would use the following which basically checks for the mime type of a folder.

mimeType = 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder'

Then to string them both together you just use and

Example

   gapi.client.drive.files
      .list({
        includeItemsFromAllDrives: false,
        supportsAllDrives: false,
        pageSize: 10,
        fields: 'nextPageToken, files(id, name, mimeType, modifiedTime)',
        q: ''me' in owners and mimeType = 'application/vnd.google-apps.folder''
      })

You need to fix the '' around the me im not very experienced with javascript sorry.
