學前自閉症兒童家長對症童休閒參與和休閒效益之認知

自閉症已被列為廣泛性發展疾患，若能及早發現障礙並進行醫療復建教育，則可減低症童之障礙程度。本研究以量化方式輔以質化訪談，對症童的家長參與休閒課程活動及其後續延伸之休閒活動，進行探究家長對休閒效益的狀況之認知。研究發現：（1）症童在參與「娛樂型」的休閒活動相對為多，且休閒活動參與上以休閒課程之活動為主；（2）整體來說，參與休閒課程所帶來的休閒效益，以教育效益來得最高；（3）「有陪同症童參與休閒課程活動」的家長認為最大的休閒效益在於症童的固著行為及情緒問題，「無陪同課程」的家長則在生活自理面成長及減低分離焦慮；（4）家長認為症童在學習注意力、口語理解與表達，全面皆整體提升，且學習主動性越強、眼神的接觸更集中，心理層面及教育效益是有明顯進步。藉由本研究結果，期望家長能積極的投入孩子黃金治療時期，能自己帶領孩子確實由生活休閒參與起，減緩孩子的障礙；並建議相關單位，可以增加症童的休閒活動課程。
