فعالية أنشطة التكامل الحسي في إكساب التوازن الحركي للأطفال ذوي اضطراب التوحد

Abstract EN

Children with autism have many sensory problems such as impaired sensory functioning of the vestibular apparatus, which in turn affects motor balance and spatial perception as it provides feedback related to the body's position of muscles, tendons, and ligaments.

these two systems are responsible for the problems that children tell in large motor activities the minute.

this study aimed to provide children with autism with motor balance using sensory integration activities through the preparation and implementation of a training program based on a sensory-integration and test the effectiveness of this program in achieving its objectives, and the continued impact after completion and during follow-up.

the studying subjects consist of ten children with autism divided into two equal groups (experimental and control) so that the experimental group (5) children and the control group (5) children and the valence between the two groups is based on the chronological age, so to be selected in the age group of (6 to 9 years), and the ratio intelligent (IQ) between (58-65) degrees.

the experimental approach was used.

among the study tools, instruments used were “Stanford Binet” intelligence scale for the fifth image, estimate the scale of infantile autism “cars”, childhood autism rating scale “cars”, motor balance scale, simple “Pearson” link to calculate the internal consistency coefficient.

the study results are: there are statistically significant differences among the averages scores of the ranks for children with autism in the experimental group and the control group in the post measurement to the level of motor balance in favor of the experimental group.

there are statistically significant differences among the averages scores of the ranks for children with autism in the experimental group in the two measurements pre and post to the level of motor balance in favor of post measurement.no statistically significant differences among the averages scores of the ranks for children with autism in the experimental group in the two measurements post and iterative to the level of motor balance one month after the end of the application program.

this explains the effectiveness of the suggested remedial program.
