Ứng dụng hoạt động mỹ thuật trong giáo dục hành vi cho trẻ rối loạn phổ tự kỷ: Một nghiên cứu trường hợp

Tóm tắt

Children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) face numerous difficulties in learning and social integration, particularly due to challenging behaviors such as aggression, stereotypy, and self-injurious behavior. Art activities provide children with opportunities for self-expression, emotional regulation, and the development of essential social and communication skills through creative processes. This study employed a single-subject design, and the results demonstrated that through art-based activities - including theme-based painting, coloring, pottery, and clay modeling - the frequency of aggressive and stereotypic behaviors decreased, while cooperative behavior among children with ASD improved. It is recommended to continue integrating such activities into behavioral education and to conduct long-term studies to assess the sustainability of these interventions, especially in real-world educational settings. The findings are consistent with those reported by Khadar et al. (2017) which believe that art helps release negative emotions and increase the ability to self-regulate behavior.
