Abstract

Autizam je poremećaj koji zahvaća sve funkcije u tijelu čovjeka, a njegova težina ovisi o tome u kojoj se mjeri manifestira. Iako je poremećaj, u nekim slučajevima manifestira se kao visokofunkcionirajući autizam u kojem osobe mogu naučiti normalno i samostalno funkcionirati. Aspergerov sindrom je vrsta visokofunkcionirajućeg autizma i njegovo glavno kliničko obilježje čine mnoge poteškoće koje se vežu uz socijalne interakcije, poteškoće u komunikaciji, specifične i uske interese, prosječnu/iznadprosječnu inteligenciju i dobre ekspertivne jezične sposobnosti, što ga čini različitim od autizma. Studija slučaja prikazuje životne situacije Dječaka X kojemu je dijagnosticiran Aspergerov sindrom, a opisuje vanjske čimbenike koji svakodnevno utječu na njegovo funkcioniranje, nerazumijevanje pojmova koje ostali smatraju logičnim kao i njegove jake strane koje se trebaju poticati i na njih se oslanjati. Kod Dječaka X, koji je opisan u poglavlju Studija slučaja, manifestira se većina simptoma kroz svakodnevni život, što mu uzrokuje mnoge prepreke u normalnom svakodnevnom funkcioniranju.

Abstract (english)

Autism is a disorder that affects all functions in the human body, and its severity depends on the extent to which it manifests. Although it is a disorder, in some cases it manifests as highly functioning autism in which individuals can learn how to function normally and independently. Asperger's syndrome is a type of high functioning autism and its main clinical feature is many difficulties related to social interactions, communication difficulties, specific and narrow interests, average / above-average intelligence, and good expert language skills, which makes it different from autism. The case study shows the life situations of Boy X who was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome, and describes external factors that affect his functioning on a daily basis, misunderstanding of concepts that others consider logical as well as his strengths to be encouraged and relied upon. In Boy X, which is described in the Case Study chapter, most of the symptoms manifest through daily life, causing him many obstacles in normal daily functioning.
