Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Benazir CHOUDRY, Auteur Année de publication : 2012 Article en page(s) : p.31-39 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study considers the effects on children with autism who witness episodes of challenging behaviour at school. It was conducted in an independent autism specialist school for children aged 4 to 16 years. Thirty-four staff and eight children were involved in the study. Data were gathered from questionnaires and interviews and from structured observations. Staff noticed that some children with autism were negatively affected during and immediately after witnessing challenging behaviour. As yet though, there is no real evidence on how best to support children following these incidents and further research is needed to establish this. The author makes the point that chiidren with autism have different profiles and communicative ability and just because some children appear not to be affected does not mean that they have not been upset by what they witness. The Editors of this Journal would welcome more papers on this topic.
