摘要

音樂對個體發展具有多元的重要性，屬於一種非語言的溝通工具，它能誘發個體活動與內在的情緒，亦能使個體感到滿足。因此，本研究為探討音樂治療對自閉症幼兒發展之成效，採用團體音樂活動的方式，透過音樂課程中之音樂欣賞、唱遊、肢體律動、即興表演、歌曲教唱、樂器合奏等活動促進幼兒的學習動機，進而提昇幼兒的認知能力、語言表達、自我概念、動作發展、學習興趣及參與度等能力，改善其注意力不集中及知覺動作能力與促進師生關係及團體互動，進而拓展人際互動關係，達到適當的社會適應、溝通能力以及自我表現能力的發展。

Music played an important multifaceted role in individual development. It served as a valuable non-verbal communication tool for those who might otherwise be locked in silence. Music could also help to spur activity, evoke inner emotions and bring satisfaction. The study explored the efficiency of music therapy for the development of a group of autistic children. The curriculum included music appreciation, singing, movement, improvisation play, music storytelling and playing instruments. The activities helped to promote learning motivation; enhance cognition, language expression, self-concept, movement development, learning interest and participation; improve concentration and expand social interaction. In crucial areas where development in this group is low-social adaptation, communication ability and self-expression-the children received benefits by participating in music.
