Zaznava učinkovitosti terapij za otroke in mladostnike z motnjo avtističnega spektra v Sloveniji : magistrsko delo

David, Ana (avtor), Masten, Robert (mentor)

Področje motnje avtističnega spektra (v nadaljevanju MAS) je v Sloveniji slabše razvito. Ob prebiranju literature in iz praktičnih izkušenj, sem ugotovila, da je področje terapij zelo slabo poznano, tudi staršem otrok in mladostnikom z MAS. Odločili smo se, raziskati terapije in metode dela, ki so namenjene otrokom in mladostnikom z MAS ter s tem ponuditi strukturiran pregled terapij in njihove učinkovitosti. V našo raziskavo je bilo vključenih 150 staršev, ki so odgovarjali na vprašanja v anketnem vprašalniku. Naš vzorec predstavlja 119 dečkov (79,3 %) ter 31 deklic (20,7 %), starih od 2 leti do 15 let. Otrokom je bila diagnoza MAS postavljena pri različnih letih v okviru zdravstvenega sistema (v ambulanti). Ugotovili smo, da je najpogosteje uporabljena terapija senzorne integracije, najmanj pa dramska terapija. Izkazalo se je, da mlajši kot se otroci in mladostniki vključujejo v določeno terapijo, večji napredek zaznavajo starši po pol leta od vključitve v terapijo. Prav tako smo ugotovili, da starši zaznavajo kot najbolj učinkovito terapijo, učenje na tleh (DIR Floortime), kot najmanj pa plesno-gibalno terapijo. Naša raziskava je pokazala, da imajo otroci in mladostniki z MAS največ težav na področju socialnih ter komunikacijskih veščin. Izkazalo se je tudi, da med deklicami in dečki, ki so bili vključeni v našo raziskavo, ni prišlo do razlik pri učinkovitosti terapij.

Izvleček

The field of autism spectrum disorder (hereinafter ASD) is less developed in Slovenia. After reading the literature and from practical experience, I realized that the field of therapies is very poorly known, even to parents of children and adolescents with ASD. We decided to research therapies and methods of work that are intended for children and adolescents with MAS and thereby offer a structured review of therapies and their effectiveness. In our research 150 parents were included who answered the questions about their children. Our sample included 119 boys (79.3%) and 31 girls (20.7%), aged between 2 and 15 years. The children were diagnosed with MAS at different ages within the health system (in the clinic). We found that the most used therapy is sensory integration and the least used is drama therapy. It turned out that the younger the children and adolescents are involved in a certain therapy the more progress the parents perceive half a year after joining the therapy. We also found that parents perceive learning on the floor (DIR Floortime) as the most effective therapy while dance-movement therapy is the least effective. Our research showed that children and adolescents with MAS have the most problems in the area of social and communication skills. It also turned out that there were no differences in the effectiveness of the therapies between the girls and boys who were included in our research.
