Relationship Development Intervention with Young Children: Social and Emotional Development Activities for Asperger Syndrome, Autism, PDD and NLD

Autor Steven Gutstein, Rachelle K Sheely
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 feb 2002

Aplicabilitatea practică a acestui manual rezidă în transformarea conceptelor complexe de neuropsihologie în exerciții zilnice, structurate special pentru copiii cu vârste între doi și opt ani. Remarcăm faptul că autorii, Steven Gutstein și Rachelle K Sheely, nu se rezumă la simpla predare a unor abilități sociale izolate, ci propun un model de intervenție pentru dezvoltarea relațională (RDI) care vizează fundamentul comunicării umane: coordonarea acțiunilor și referențierea socială. Cartea este organizată riguros pe trei niveluri de competență — Novice, Apprentice și Challenger — oferind o progresie logică de la simpla atenție până la colaborare și co-creare. Această structură indică o înțelegere profundă a faptului că interacțiunea socială pentru copiii cu autism necesită o reconstrucție etapizată a mecanismelor de reglare. Credem că valoarea adăugată a volumului constă în instrumentele de evaluare incluse, care permit părinților și terapeuților să monitorizeze obiective specifice pentru fiecare exercițiu. În contextul operei autorului, această lucrare funcționează ca un ghid de implementare pentru principiile expuse în Autism / Aspergers: Solving the Relationship Puzzle, oferind soluții concrete acolo unde textul anterior stabilea cadrul teoretic. De asemenea, volumul completează perspectiva oferită de Social Communication Cues for Young Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders and Related Conditions de Tarin Varughese, adăugând o metodologie de intervenție bazată pe etape de dezvoltare clinică, spre deosebire de simpla utilizare a indiciilor de comunicare. Față de The Activity Kit for Babies and Toddlers at Risk, care se concentrează pe segmentul de vârstă 0-3 ani, lucrarea de față extinde aria de intervenție până la opt ani, acoperind perioada critică a integrării în învățământul primar.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm această carte părinților și terapeuților care caută o metodă structurată, nu doar activități disparate. Cititorul câștigă un plan de acțiune clar, împărțit pe 12 stadii, care transformă interacțiunea socială dintr-o provocare într-un proces de învățare controlat. Este un instrument esențial pentru a construi reciprocitatea emoțională și autonomia copilului, oferind fișe de monitorizare care transformă progresele subtile în date concrete și observabile.


Descriere

Friendship, even for the most able, requires hard work, and the odds are heavily stacked against those with autism spectrum conditions. Designed for younger children, typically between the ages of two and eight, this comprehensive set of enjoyable activities emphasizes foundation skills such as social referencing, regulating behavior, conversational reciprocity and synchronized actions. The authors include many objectives to plan and evaluate a child's progress, each one related to a specific exercise. Suitable for parental use, the manual is also designed for easy implementation in schools and in therapeutic settings.

Recenzii

The book is applicable for parents of those on the spectrum, children and adults on the spectrum, teachers, counsellors and anyone involved with, and wishing to help, those to whom social skills do not come naturally... The book is divided into sex levels from novice right through to partner. Each chapter has a similar format which makes it familiar and easy to use. After an initial summary and explanation about the purpose of the section, plus coaching tips, a series of worksheets and activities are provided with clear objectives and instructions. Creative coaches can adapt and extend many of the ideas. Each sheet has a simple objective e.g. In the novice stage, developing attentiveness to communication is a formative skill... Overall this is an extremely useful book with some stimulating and enjoyable exercises that could easily be used as the bases for a parent-let group. Many of the exercises could be carried out by motivated individuals with one or more willing partners. This is good value for money due to the quality and number of worksheets.
The book contains step by step well laid out activities to teach and encourage skills such as attending, social referencing, improvisation, co-creativity and collaborating, among many others. It is a very much a user friendly `manual' and will be great for planning play dates. The first book is aimed at ages 2 - 8
This Publication is much more than a book, it is a prescription of detailed objective-based interventions in developmental progression for children aged 2 to 8 to develop friendships, relationships and appropriate social behaviour. This manual is suitable for parental use and is an excellent frame of reference to adopt when working with children to acquire relationship skills. It discreetly covers attention, motivation, eye contact and management. This book is not the fix-it model for relationship difficulties, but I fail to see how even implementing one of the activities could not have a positive outcome for both child and therapist.
It provides a wealth of activities, following a developmental model, for therapists, teachers and parents. The authors suggest that children with autism do not develop friendships just by being among peers, but need strategies and activities to develop the foundations of social referencing, regulation of their own behaviour, and practice in becoming a social partner. The activities focus on teaching the child how to see others as real people, develop a curiosity for social interaction, become a team member, and adapt in social settings. Although some initial activities are a little unorthodox, they are fun and designed to provide the scaffolding needed to teach relationship skills.
