Plan with us – not over our heads! Even after 70 years Autism Research until now neither managed to explain the growing number of autism diagnoses, nor to understand the basics of autism.

Download or read book Early Childhood Autism written by Bernhard J. Schmidt and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-11-15 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even early childhood autists can, contrary to popular belief, develop normally. They want and can communicate and interact, and just like all other children, they need social interaction for their development. If there is a disruption of social interaction, then there will be a disruption of development. How and why it can lead to disturbances of social interaction, and what consequences they have, is presented with a development-dynamic approach - so far denied autistic. At the same time, support programs are presented aiming at restoring the social interaction between parents and autistic children. And: "It's never too late."
Download or read book Autism Flight or Fight written by Bernhard J. Schmidt and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If one leaves the hitherto purely descriptive (phenomenological-descriptive) "understanding" of autism, anxiety and stress can be identified as basic problems for autistic individuals. Because anxiety and stress stand in the way of a social interaction. But if it comes to a disruption of social interaction, then it comes to a disruption of development. In the case of challenging behavior, which has so far been wrongly regarded as "typically autistic" due to the diagnostic criteria, anxiety, stress and a disturbed, but treatable, socio-emotional development now come into view. It also becomes obvious that one can not only react to anxiety and stress by "fleeing" into one's own world of stereotypes, rituals and auto-aggression, but also with "fight". So not only the "hedgehog and shell children" are seen, but also understood the behavior of autistic children and adolescents who do not retreat. The "fight" children are exploring very strongly, showing aggression especially against others ...
Download or read book Is my child autistic written by Bernhard J. Schmidt and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-11-18 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the first deviations from normal development occur in a child, be it language, motor skills or social interaction, parents and educators often wonder if this child may be autistic. Autism currently dominates not only research, but also the media. This, however, under a false understanding of autism as an incurable disease. However, the new social-psychological and developmentdynamic theory of autism makes it clear that autism is not a disease, but another form of being. And that autistic children can also develop normally, need social interaction for development, and are willing and able to do so. It only needs a higher sensitivity to allow autistic children to socialize. The book explains what autism is, how to recognize autistic children, and what should be considered as a precautionary measure to help autistic children develop normally.

This book was released on 2020-10-15 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only through the perspective of clinical social psychology is it possible to perceive and analyze pathological group processes. With this new perspective, the "MSbP as a group phenomenon" in the field of autism is examined and presented as an example. By analyzing it becomes clear that - MSbP occurs much more frequently than previously assumed. - Pathological behavior can be publicly carried out within group structures and still remain undetected for decades. - the distribution of individual motives and actions among different actors within different subgroups has a stabilizing and legitimizing effect. - The role of the perpetrator in the abuse is not limited to the primary caregivers. - It is possible that the child could be harmed against the parents' actual will.

Download or read book The Asperger Syndrome for Physicians written by Bernhard J. Schmidt and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2019-11-14 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of diagnosed autistic individuals has increased significantly in recent years. At the same time, autistic individuals have a reduced health-related quality of life as well as a high mortality risk, as a recent study shows. Nevertheless, autistic people rarely come as patients in medical practices. This is mainly due to invisible barriers that make access to medical care for autistic people at least difficult - if not impossible. To make these barriers visible and to show ways to reduce them is a central goal of this book. In addition, the history, diagnosis and treatment of autistic individuals requires a specific approach. Therefore, the causes and effects of many diseases in Asperger autistics are presented.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parents and their Asperger children communicate differently. This easily leads to misunderstandings and difficulties. Autists talk plain text. This is also reflected in this book. In a compact way, a new perspective on the communication between parents and Asperger children is shown, in which it is especially clear that autism is not a developmental disorder. The other form of communication and interaction can lead to a developmental disorder - but it does not have to! Understanding this particular form of communication and interaction avoids misunderstandings and paves the way to a happy, symptom-free life.

This volume is an essential resource for scholars in social work, psychology, sociology, child development, allied health, and similar disciplines and professions.
