摘要

目的:超过三分之一的自闭症儿童在诊断时对字母和数字表现出强烈或排他的兴趣。这篇文章旨在定性地研究自闭症中这种兴趣的非典型表现,并确定它是否以及如何使儿童及其家庭受益。方法:研究对象为138名自闭症儿童(84%不说话或极少说话)和76名2-6岁正常发育儿童的父母。他们接受了一份关于孩子对字母和数字的兴趣、这些兴趣的表现、父母对它的态度以及孩子的口语的问卷调查。对定性数据进行归纳主题分析,以确定反复出现的主题。结果:确定了八个主题:与书面材料相关的非典型行为,对字母和数字的情感依恋,语言习得,屏幕的使用,孤独行为,随着时间的推移兴趣的减少,父母的态度和其他特殊能力。结论:本研究揭示了自闭症对书面材料的兴趣以非典型的方式表现出来,与在典型发展环境中对阅读的兴趣的发展是不可比较的。这种兴趣也为儿童及其家庭带来了许多有益的方面。

What do autistic children who are interested in letters and numbers do with them? A qualitative study.

Purpose: Over a third of autistic children exhibit an intense or exclusive interest in letters and numbers at the time of diagnosis. This article aims to qualitatively investigate the atypical manifestations of this interest in autism compared to typically developing children and determine if and how it can benefit children and their families.

Methods: The participants were the parents of 138 autistic children (84% were non-speaking or minimally speaking) and 76 typically developing children ages 2-6. They were administered a questionnaire on their child's interest in letters and numbers, the manifestations of these interests, the parental attitude towards it, and the child's oral language. An inductive thematic analysis was performed on the qualitative data to establish recurring themes.

Results: Eight themes were identified: atypical behaviours related to written material, emotional attachment to letters and numbers, language acquisition, use of screens, solitary behaviour, reduction of the interest over time, parental attitudes, and other special abilities.

Conclusion: This study reveals that the interest in written material manifests itself in atypical ways in autism and is not comparable to the development of an interest in reading in a typically developing context. This interest also presents multiple beneficial aspects for children and their families.
