上文提到心智解讀(Theory of Mind)涉及對他人及自身心理狀態的認識,並且對於理解及預測行為起了十分重要的作用。「心盲」是跟心智解讀有關的一套理論,它主要認為自閉症人群有着不同程度的心智解讀或「讀心」的缺損(Baron-Cohen等,2015年)。 一些人可能會懷疑自閉症兒童是否真的能夠學會讀心技巧。Howlin及其同事(1999年)指出,自閉症兒童是可以透過明確的教學方法來學懂讀心的,並且藉此技巧來改善他們的社交和溝通方面的障礙。以下為該作者提出的部分教學要素: 情感 (Emotions) 階段一:通過照片教學生識別面部表情。 階段二:通過繪圖教學生識別情緒。 階段三:教學生辨別由情境引發的情緒(「以情境為基礎」的情緒),例如因兇猛的黑熊靠近而感到恐懼。 階段四:教學生辨別由願望是否得到滿足而產生的情緒(「以願望為基礎」的情緒)。 階段五:教學生辨別由個人想法而產生的情緒,不管其想法可能與現實不符(「以信念為基礎」的情緒)。 信息狀態 (Informational States) 階段一: 簡單的視覺換位思考 這階段的目的是教學生明白不同的人會看到不同的事物。例如,向老師和學生展示兩張不同的圖片,然後老師問學生「你看見了甚麼?」及「我看見了甚麼?」。 階段二:複雜的視覺換位思考 在這階段,學生除了要能識別他人看到的事物之外,還需明白他們看到的事物是甚麼樣子的。例如,學生和老師面對面坐著,看著同一張圖片。然後老師問學生,「當我/你看這張圖片時,它是正面朝上還是上下顛倒?」 。

九月將至,暑假即將完結。身為家長,對於年幼子女開學定必非常緊張,如子女患有自閉症就更為擔心。擔心子女如何適應時間表的改變;課堂學習情況;老師能否照顧子女;有否吃掉午餐;是否懂得自己去廁所及情緒控制等。 在學校,我們運用ABA(應用行為分析)教學法教導學生積極準備自己以適應現實生活;同樣地,要讓他們開學有個好開始,家長也可運用以下方法幫助孩子預先適應和學習所需技能,為子女作充足的準備是非常重要的。 1. 開學前調整子女時間表,如在正式開學日前讓子女早點起床和早點睡覺,提早脫離假日模式。妥善分配時間讓孩子熟習活動之間的轉換,平衡玩樂、收拾及閱讀時間。 2. 臨近開學,要讓子女知道每天日程會有轉變。家長可為孩子製作簡單日程表,以繪圖形式讓子女覺得更有趣,也可製作開學倒數日程表,把已經完成的項目或日子刪除,讓他們知道自己的活動,這對於尚未有時間概念的學生尤其重要。 3. 預先熟習環境可減輕小朋友的焦慮,亦可避免同時間應對太多變化。家長可與子女預先熟習上學路線或安排參觀新學校。另外,坊間亦有很多遊戲和書籍讓你參考如何為孩子第一天上學作好準備。 4. 讓子女試穿校服、背上書包、用餐盒享用午餐、把用完的東西收拾好,為真正上學進行預演。只要預先計劃妥當,便可靜待開學。上學的第一天,不要忘記稱讚子女能準時起床,穿好校服,輕鬆上學。 在愛培學校,老師會在放暑假前派發日程紀錄表給家長記錄低子女的假期活動,並附圖展示孩子所長或其作品,除了作為教材與學生們分享外,也讓老師了解每位學生在假期時的生活和了解他們的轉變。 原文:親子頭條 -【開學了!】預先適應和學習所需技能 資訊提供: 文麗萍 – 愛培學校校長 早年於英國考獲心理學學位,並於美國及香港接受過美國自閉症權威學者Dr. Ronald Leaf及Dr.
