Autism Spectrum Disorder Research: Time for Positive Psychology / Kristy Lorraine DYKSHOORN in Autism - Open Access, 9-1 ([01/01/2019])  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism - Open Access > 9-1 [01/01/2019] . - 7 p. Titre : Autism Spectrum Disorder Research: Time for Positive Psychology Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Kristy Lorraine DYKSHOORN, Auteur ; Damien C. CORMIER, Auteur Article en page(s) : 7 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism  Positive psychology  Family strengths Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many individuals with ASD, as well as their families, face significant stressors and challenges, but they can also experience strength and resilience. The investigation of positive experiences could be used to support and encourage families as they confront adversities and can increase these families’ life satisfaction. ASD research, to date, has been largely focused on the identification and remediation of deficits. The purpose of this paper is to describe the existing gap related to the absence of positive psychology within ASD research and suggest actions and directions to be taken by the research community to address this gap. This can be achieved by integrating positive psychology into ASD research with the goal of creating a balanced view of people and their experiences. For example, research into the role of positive emotions in resources-building and resilience-promotion is needed. Additionally, on-going investigation into the experience of life satisfaction by individuals with ASD and their families will help to inform professional intervention and support of these families. An argument for a shift in theoretical framework will be made and implications for future research will be discussed.

A Preliminary Study: Can Computer Mediated Educational Materials Contribute in Children with Autism Progress in the Right-to-Live Autism Centre / Khaled ISMAIL in Autism - Open Access, 9-1 ([01/01/2019])  

Public ISBD [article]  inAutism - Open Access > 9-1 [01/01/2019] . - 6 p. Titre : A Preliminary Study: Can Computer Mediated Educational Materials Contribute in Children with Autism Progress in the Right-to-Live Autism Centre Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Khaled ISMAIL, Auteur ; Nazean JOMHARI, Auteur Article en page(s) : 6 p. Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Children with autism  Educational games  Intervention  Visual illustrations Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many studies presented autism in children is estimated as one per 62 children and higher levels were reported in some countries. These children exhibit significant impairments with social, behavioural and communication skills. The level of impairments and severity of autism vary from an individual to another which makes teaching children with autism a challenge task for caregivers. Hence, computer mediated educational materials offers an alternative way to attract children to learning tasks using visual illustrations instead of textual form. This paper presents a preliminary study conducted at Right-to-Live autism centre in Gaza, Palestine; it aims to evaluate the children acceptance and attraction level to the served education materials compared to the manual methods of teaching.
