Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cet ouvrage a pour ambition d'apporter sa contribution aux débats actuels autour de la pertinence des différentes modalités de prise en charge des troubles du spectre autistique. Dans le contexte actuel polémique et fortement médiatisé, ce livre apporte un éclairage sur les différents enjeux, divergences et convergences entre les formations d'origine de nos équipes pédopsychiatriques et médico-sociales sur le terrain, qui se réfèrent essentiellement à l'enseignement psychanalytique, et les nouvelles approches issues d'autres champs de la connaissance. Ce livre s'adresse aussi aux parents, actuellement très informés, mais pas toujours avec l'indépendance, la rigueur et la clarté que requiert un sujet aussi grave que le devenir de leur enfant.
Download or read book L valuation diagnostique de l enfant avec trouble du spectre de l autisme written by Léa Dormoy and published by Dunod. This book was released on 2020-09-16 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En France, le diagnostic psychologique du Trouble du Spectre Autistique (TSA) ne peut se faire que par des psychologues cliniciens très bien formés. L'HAS souligne d'ailleurs le déficit de professionnels formés à ce type de diagnostic. Dans le cadre de suspicion de TSA, le diagnostic psychologique se réalise avec des méthodes qui sont propres aux psychologues cliniciens : entretiens, observations, tests. Cet ouvrage va au-delà d'une présentation des outils à disposition du praticien. Il propose une méthodologie étayée de cas cliniques pour élaborer la démarche diagnostique et ainsi : - identifier les signes d'appel ; - choisir les tests pertinents ; - identifier les difficultés et les points forts du sujet ; - aborder le diagnostic différentiel et les questions de comorbidité ; - interpréter et croiser les résultats ; - savoir faire l’annonce diagnostique et l’accompagnement post-diagnostique.
Download or read book Aspects cliniques et g n tiques des Troubles du Spectre Autistique written by Marie Ducloy and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les Troubles du Spectre Autistique (TSA) représentent un ensemble de troubles neurodéveloppementaux affectant environ 1% de la population générale, avec un sexe-ratio déséquilibré d'une fille pour 4 garçons dans les cas d'autisme typique. Les patients montrent des difficultés de communication sociale (verbale et non-verbale), des intérêts restreints, des comportements stéréotypés et parfois des troubles du langage. Les TSA sont à ce jour considérés comme la pathologie psychiatrique la plus héritable (de 56 à 95%), en faveur d'une origine génétique à ces troubles. L'étude de familles où plusieurs individus sont atteints de TSA (familles multiplexes (MPX)) vise à établir une corrélation génotype-phénotype au sein d'une cohorte. L'étude de 49 patients avec TSA et de leurs 88 apparentés issus de 17 familles multiplexes recrutées dans la cohorte internationale PARIS (Paris Autism Research International Sibpairs) montre au plan clinique une importante sur-représentation des comorbidités psychiatriques tant chez les patients que chez les apparentés en comparaison avec les données en population générale (respectivement 73,7%, 70% et 18,6%) (p-value=2,3e-13), ainsi au plan génétique un taux similaire variants de novo exoniques chez les patients et les apparentés (1,68 contre 1,07 respectivement). Le ”multiple hit model” décrit la traduction phénotypique de l'addition de l'effet délétère de variants de novo et hérités chez un même individu. Une méta-analyse des gènes de la famille des Neuroligines (NLGN1, NLGN2, NLGN3, NLGN4X, NLGN4Y) dans les TSA vise à évaluer la corrélation génotype-phénotype et ensuite à comparer ces résultats avec les phénotypes de patients pré! sentant des délétions et duplications de NLGN4Y issus d'une cohorte de 212 garçons atteints de TSA. La connaissance plus approfondie de ces mécanismes physiopathologiques à travers l'étude des familles MPX permettra à l'avenir de trouver de nouveaux gènes candidats, de développer des approches pharmacogénétiques spécifiques des anomalies génétiques de chaque patient atteint de TSA.

Download or read book Computers and Games for Mental Health and Well Being written by Yasser Khazaal and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen important developments in the computer and game industry, including the emergence of the concept of serious games. It is hypothesized that tools such as games, virtual reality, or applications for smartphones may foster learning, enhance motivation, promote behavioral change, support psychotherapy, favor empowerment, and improve some cognitive functions. Computers and games may create supports for training or help people with cognitive, emotional, or behavioral change. Games take various formats, from board games to informatics to games with interactive rules of play. Similarly, computer tools may vary widely in format, from self-help or assisted computerized training to virtual reality or applications for smartphones. Some tools that may be helpful for mental health were specifically designed for that goal, whereas others were not. Gamification of computer-related products and games with a numeric format tend to reduce the gap between games and computers tools and increase the conceptual synergy in such fields. Games and computer design share an opportunity for creativity and innovation to help create, specifically design, and assess preventive or therapeutic tools. Computers and games share a design conception that allows innovative approaches to overcome barriers of the real world by creating their own rules. Yet, despite the potential interest in such tools to improve treatment of mental disorders and to help prevent them, the field remains understudied and information is under-disseminated in clinical practice. Some studies have shown, however, that there is potential interest and acceptability of tools that support various vehicles, rationales, objectives, and formats. These tools include traditional games (e.g., chess games), popular electronic games, board games, computer-based interventions specifically designed for psychotherapy or cognitive training, virtual reality, apps for smartphones, and so forth. Computers and games may offer a true opportunity to develop, assess, and disseminate new prevention and treatment tools for mental health and well-being. Currently, there is a strong need for state-of-the-art information to answer questions such as the following: Why develop such tools for mental health and well-being? What are the potential additions to traditional treatments? What are the best strategies or formats to improve the possible impact of these tools? Are such tools useful as a first treatment step? What is the potential of a hybrid model of care that combines traditional approaches with games and/or computers as tools? What games and applications have already been designed and studied? What is the evidence from previous studies? How can such tools be successfully designed for mental health and well-being? What is rewarding or attractive for patients in using such treatments? What are the worldwide developments in the field? Are some protocols under development? What are the barriers and challenges related to such developments? How can these tools be assessed, and how can the way that they work, and for whom, be measured? Are the potential benefits of such products specific, or can these additions be attributed to nonspecific factors? What are the users’ views on such tools? What are the possible links between such tools and social networks? Is there a gap between evidence-based results and market development? Are there any quality challenges? What future developments and studies are needed in the field?

This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An impassioned indictment, one that glows with the heat of a prosecution motivated by an ethical imperative.” —Lisa Appignanesi, New York Review of Books In the first comprehensive history of the links between autism and Nazism, prize-winning historian Edith Sheffer uncovers how a diagnosis common today emerged from the atrocities of the Third Reich. As the Nazi regime slaughtered millions across Europe during World War Two, it sorted people according to race, religion, behavior, and physical condition. Nazi psychiatrists targeted children with different kinds of minds—especially those thought to lack social skills—claiming the Reich had no place for them. Hans Asperger and his colleagues endeavored to mold certain “autistic” children into productive citizens, while transferring others to Spiegelgrund, one of the Reich’s deadliest child killing centers. In this unflinching history, Sheffer exposes Asperger’s complicity in the murderous policies of the Third Reich.

Download or read book Unstrange Minds written by Roy Richard Grinker and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-07-31 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A father's inspiring portrait of his daughter informs this classic reassessment of the "epidemic" of autism. When Isabel Grinker was diagnosed with autism in 1994, it occurred in only about 3 of every 10,000 children. Within ten years, rates had skyrocketed. Some scientists reported rates as high as 1 in 150. The media had declared autism an epidemic. Unstrange Minds documents the global quest of Isabel's father, renowned anthropologist Roy Richard Grinker, to discover the surprising truth about why autism is so much more common today. In fact, there is no autism epidemic. Rather, we are experiencing an increase in autism diagnoses, and Grinker shows that the identification and treatment of autism depends on culture just as much as it does on science. Filled with moving stories and informed by the latest science, Unstrange Minds is a powerful testament to a father's search for the truth.
Download or read book Culture and Human Robot Interaction in Militarized Spaces written by Dr Julie Carpenter and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2016-01-28 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) personnel are some of the most highly trained people in the military, with a job description that spans defusing unexploded ordnance to protecting VIP’s and state dignitaries. EOD are also one of the first military groups to work with robots every day. These robots have become an increasingly important tool in EOD work, enabling people to work at safer distances in many dangerous situations. Based on exploratory research investigating interactions between EOD personnel and the robots they use, this study richly describes the nuances of these reciprocal influences, especially those related to operator emotion associated with the robots. In particular, this book examines the activities, processes and contexts that influence or constrain everyday EOD human-robot interactions, what human factors are shaping the (robotic) technology and how people and culture are being changed by using it. The findings from this research have implications for future personnel training, and the refinement of robot design considerations for many fields that rely on critical small group communication and decision-making skills.
