Abstract

Poremećaj iz spektra autizma odnosi se na širok spektar stanja koje karakteriziraju izazovi sa socijalnim vještinama, ponavljajućim ponašanjem, govorom i neverbalnom komunikacijom. Budući da je autizam poremećaj iz spektra, svaka osoba s autizmom ima različit skup snaga i izazova. Poremećaj se javlja u prve tri godine života te traje cijeli život. Neki od ključnih pokazatelja ovog poremećaja su: nedostatak socijalnih interakcija, oštećenje komunikacije te obrasci ponašanja, interesa i aktivnosti. Ranim prepoznavanjem, postavljanjem dijagnoze i radom uvelike se može poboljšati život osoba s poremećajem iz spektra autizma. Uzroci nastanka ovog poremećaja ni danas nisu poznati, ali ih se pokušava objasniti teorijskim i praktičnim radom i saznanjima o utjecaju više čimbenika (naslijeđa, moždana oštećenja i poremećaj moždane funkcije, biokemijske osobnosti, poremećaji kognitivnih procesa i govorno – jezičnog razvoja, poremećaj emocionalnog razvoja i interakcija navedenih činitelja). Odgojno-obrazovna inkluzija podrazumijeva uključivanje sve djece u redovne vrtićke programe. Da bi inkluzija bila moguća odgojitelji bi trebali provoditi i planirati adekvatnu individualiziranu podršku te partnerski odnos utemeljen na potpori i pomoći s roditeljima djece. Cilj istraživanja za potrebe ovoga rada bio je ispitati spremnost i mišljenje odgojitelja o inkluziji djece s poremećajima iz spektra autizma u cjelodnevne programe vrtića, kao i ispitati provode li i planiraju li odgojitelji adekvatnu individualiziranu podršku.

Abstract (english)

Autism spectrum disorder refers to a wide range of conditions characterized by challenges with social skills, repetitive behaviors, speech, and nonverbal communication. Because autism is a spectrum disorder, every person with autism has a different set of strengths and challenges. The disorder occurs in the first three years of life and lasts a lifetime. Some of the key indicators of this disorder are: lack of social interactions, impaired communication, and patterns of behavior, interests, and activities. Early recognition, diagnosis, and work can greatly improve the lives of people with autism spectrum disorder. The causes of this disorder are still unknown, but they are explained by theoretical and practical work and knowledge about the influence of several factors (heredity, brain damage and brain dysfunction, biochemical personality, disorders of cognitive processes and speech - language development, emotional development disorder and interaction of the above factors). Educational inclusion implies the inclusion of all children in regular kindergarten programs. For inclusion to be possible, educators should implement and plan adequate individualized support and a partnership based on support and assistance with parents of children. The aim of the research for the purposes of this paper was to examine the readiness and opinion of educators on the inclusion of children with autism spectrum disorders in full-day kindergarten programs, as well as to examine whether educators implement and plan adequate individualized support.
