Abstract

Aggressive behaviour is one of the most disruptive problems in children with autism. It generates anxiety in the parents and the child, who does not know what to do, and the family's quality of life is significantly reduced. In this scenario, using narrative practices may help promote the sense of agency in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and help them find solutions based on self-knowledge. This article explores different narrative practices to help deal with challenging behaviour in children with ASD. We discuss several examples using two techniques: a therapist's imaginary friend and using a magic coin as ways of externalising the problem and playing with metaphors. We present the procedures applied during the interventions with three children. These narrative practices can help to externalise the problem, think about possible solutions, and facilitate the development of imagination and abstract thinking in children with ASD.

自闭症儿童的叙事实践:嘿!我的治疗师有一个假想的朋友和其他反发脾气的做法*
攻击行为是自闭症儿童最具破坏性的问题之一。它在父母和孩子中产生焦虑,他们不知道该做什么,家庭的生活质量明显降低。在这种情况下,使用叙事练习可能有助于促进自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)儿童的代理意识,并帮助他们找到基于自我认识的解决方案。这篇文章探讨了不同的叙事实践来帮助处理自闭症儿童的挑战性行为。我们讨论了使用两种技术的几个例子:治疗师的想象朋友和使用魔法硬币作为外化问题和玩隐喻的方法。我们介绍了在三个孩子的干预过程中应用的程序。这些叙述练习有助于将问题外化,思考可能的解决方案,并促进ASD儿童想象力和抽象思维的发展。
