Daily life skills: priorities, promoters and barriers from the perspective of young autistic adults, their parents and professionals living in Malta / Yanika ATTARD in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 24-1 (May 2023)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 24-1 (May 2023) . - p.5-26 Titre : Daily life skills: priorities, promoters and barriers from the perspective of young autistic adults, their parents and professionals living in Malta Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yanika ATTARD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.5-26 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : In this paper, the author explores the views of parents, professionals and young autistic adult males aged 16 to 30 years on which daily life skills (DLS) they considered important and what they felt were the promoters and barriers to developing these. This is an important topic as literature shows that the skills of verbal and able autistic young people are often below the level one would expect given their cognitive skills. In addition, many would argue that success is often aided when there is a consensus amongst key stakeholders. The findings showed that opinions varied within and between stakeholders and the young people were often more robust and keen to learn DLS than their parents or professionals realised. Teaching these skills is often left until adolescence as parents are busy and often do these tasks themselves. Negative experiences or low self-esteem can lead to anxiety and a fear of failure which was recognised as a barrier. In addition, the family's culture, beliefs and attitudes can be an important determinant on how independent a young person becomes. The author makes suggestions on how the development of DLS in able autistic children and adults can be more effective. The Editor welcomes other papers on this topic.

Autism training for paediatricians, mainstream secondary school teachers and police officers in Malta: needs and incentives / Melvin ATTARD in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 24-1 (May 2023)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 24-1 (May 2023) . - p.27-43 Titre : Autism training for paediatricians, mainstream secondary school teachers and police officers in Malta: needs and incentives Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Melvin ATTARD, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.27-43 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Many research studies on practice in the autism field conclude that more people need knowledge and training on autism. This begs the question as to what type of training, the form it should take and how best to identify what the intended audience would find most useful. For those who do not specialise in autism, and who work with a wide range of children or adults, such as the police, paediatricians and mainstream teachers, there are often competing demands which affect their ability and motivation to take up training in autism. The study reported here is a summary of the author's PhD. It sought the views of these three groups living and working in Malta, via an online survey and interviews. It reports their views on the topics they would like covered, the preferred form of delivery and the incentives and barriers to attendance. This paper will be of interest to all who develop or deliver training on autism.

Child-directed play with mothers of young autistic children: a study on the benefits of the approach / Filippa ANDREASSON in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 24-1 (May 2023)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 24-1 (May 2023) . - p.54-65 Titre : Child-directed play with mothers of young autistic children: a study on the benefits of the approach Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Filippa ANDREASSON, Auteur ; Axel D'ANGELO GENTILE, Auteur ; Anna BACKMAN, Auteur ; Lars KLINTWALL, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.54-65 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This paper from Sweden written by a Clinical Psychologist (LK) and colleagues from the Karolinska Institute and Stockholm University describes a short study with six mothers of young autistic children. The authors contend that the usual approaches to play do not work so well. The mothers were given details on CDP and asked to consider which aspects of their interactions with their child they would like to change. The play took place in their homes and supervision sessions were held to problem-solve. All parents felt they could parent more in accordance with their values, and said they had achieved the outcomes they wished. The paper focuses on what the mothers wanted to achieve. It would be useful in future studies if parents could be asked to consider what they thought their children would like to achieve and to consider the degree of congruence or conflict with their own interactive style. CDP described here has much in common with other approaches, including that developed in the UK by Jane Gurnett and Tessa Morton who developed ACT for Autism (2021), detailing ways in which to connect and communicate with autistic children.

The accessibility of online, asynchronous, focus groups with autistic participants / Henna CUNDILL in Good Autism Practice - GAP, 24-1 (May 2023)

Public ISBD [article]  inGood Autism Practice - GAP > 24-1 (May 2023) . - p.66-72 Titre : The accessibility of online, asynchronous, focus groups with autistic participants Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Henna CUNDILL, Auteur ; Sarah DOUGLAS, Auteur ; Krysia WALDOCK, Auteur ; Christopher BARBER, Auteur ; Stewart RAPLEY, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.66-72 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Increasingly, researchers are using online surveys and other online methods to obtain data directly from autistic participants. It is therefore important to ensure that what is done takes account of the perspectives of autistic people, particularly those who are similar to the sample selected and to learn from previous participatory research. This paper compares two online, asynchronous focus groups which took place as part of a Participatory Action Research project. The lead researcher, HC worked with three autistic students studying at the Centre for Autism and Theology at Aberdeen University and another autistic student based at the Tizard Centre at the University of Kent (KW). The project was designed collaboratively by this group. The first focus group was a pilot looking at autism and Christian prayer. It was predicted that using an online, text-based, and asynchronous format would reduce barriers to accessibility for autistic participants. However, during and after the pilot, some participants still reported barriers. These included anxiety triggered by uncertainty, social anxiety and executive functioning issues. Having learned from the pilot, the main focus group was designed to address the barriers identified and to build on the positives and six new autistic participants were recruited. Additional steps were taken before, during and after the Focus Group to assist participants with planning and scheduling their engagement, and to reduce social anxiety and uncertainty. The main focus group saw increased levels of participation when compared with the pilot.
