| Résumé : |
Research has consistently shown that families with young children with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) have difficulty participating in family occupations and routines. However, little is known about how families who have adolescents with ASD manage daily life. Therefore, this qualitative research study explored how families with adolescents with ASD constructed, managed, and experienced family occupations and routines. Five families with adolescents with moderate to severe autism participated. Each family engaged in two semi-structured interviews. Participant observation occurred in an activity chosen by the family. Data were analyzed using thematic coding procedures and narrative analysis. Three main inter-related themes emerged: routines as essential, the shifting of routines with the onset of puberty, and the provision of accommodations. The findings highlight the need for family-centered services for families with adolescents with ASD. Interventions that address family occupations and routines have the potential to promote family health and well-being. |
