Abstract:
Introduction Autism is a generalized or pervasive developmental disorder, and the term generalized and pervasive developmental disorder is currently used to refer to severe problems that begin to appear during early childhood. Of course, a general delay occurs in the entire developmental process, which leaves negative effects on many different aspects of development, in addition to the child with autism disorder suffering from deficiencies in the social aspect, as a result of which he is forced to withdraw from social interactions and situations (Adel Abdullah, 2002, 11), autism disorder is an obstacle that prevents children with autism from engaging in effective positive social interactions and relationships, and this was confirmed by the study (2017, 69) Watkins, Kuhn, Ledbetter, Gevarter, & O'Reilly, where it stated that poor social communication skills are considered A core feature of autism includes deficiencies in social and emotional interactions, deficiencies in developing and maintaining relationships, inability to use and understand gestures, and difficulty making friends. and maintaining it, and the inability to play imaginatively. Many studies have agreed on the importance of activities, play, and motor skills for people with autism, and among these studies is the study of Chol (2000, 37), which aimed to reveal the effect of play activities on developing communication skills in children with autism, and the results showed that Play has a positive effect on the development of communication in children with autism, in addition to the study of Walaa Khader (2010), which aimed to identify the effectiveness of the motor SUMMARY 143 aspect of the TEACCH program in developing motor and social skills in children with autism. The study problem Previous studies showed an increase in the number of children with autism, as the study (ROWLAND, 2020) showed that the diagnosis of autism spectrum disorder increased by more than 70 percent between (2006) and (2012), and the disability of autism has a comprehensive impact on all aspects of development The child's mental, social, emotional and sensory aspects, however, the most obvious deficiencies in this disability is the social aspect. The speech ability of 50% of children with autism disorder, as indicated by Bagi et al. (2020) PAIGE ET AL that children with autism disorder suffer from multiple deficiencies, foremost among which is social communication. The researcher noticed a lack of training on social communication skills by those in charge of caring for children with autism disorders in civil society institutions, and within the limits of the researcher's knowledge, it became clear that there is a dearth of studies that dealt with the use of motor activities in developing children's social communication skills. People with autism in the Arab environment, so the researcher seeks, through the current study, to provide the child with social communication skills through the use of motor activities, based on the fact that motor activities help alleviate the problem of isolation among these children and help them express their needs and reduce their tensions, emotions and feelings of loneliness. And alleviating the symptoms of autism, given that communication is one of the biggest problems that researchers face when dealing with these children, and based on the above, the problem of the study can be identified in a short research manner in the following main question: SUMMARY 144 What is the effectiveness of a training program using motor activities in developing some social communication skills for children with autism disorder? the study aims The current study seeks to achieve the following objectives: 1. Developing some social communication skills for children with autism through a training program based on the use of motor activities and testing the effectiveness of this program. 2. Checking the continuity of the training program using motor activities in achieving its objectives after completing its application and during the follow-up period. the study Importance The theoretical and practical importance of the study is represented in the following points: 1. Contribute to rehabilitating and helping children with autism to communicate well with members of society. 2. Shed light on the importance of social communication skills for children with autism and work on developing them to enable them to play their social role and participate in the development and progress of society. 3. Shedding light on the importance of motor activities in developing social communication skills for children with autism the study definitions 1. Autistic Disorder: “A pattern of autism spectrum disorder characterized by deficiencies in social behaviors, communication, and symbolic play, as well as the presence of stereotypical, repetitive, and restricted SUMMARY 145 behaviors and interests. It is also pathologically associated with attention deficit disorder or distraction. (Adel Abdullah, 2014, 40). 2. Social Communication Skills: “It is a set of acquired behaviors that enable the child to interact positively with others, and give him the ability to correctly perceive his behaviors that help him to behave well in situations of social interaction and to be able to modify and control his behavior in a manner that It is commensurate with different social attitudes and community standards. 3. Motor activities: the initial and innate vocabulary of children's movement is a way of expression and exploration to explain the child's self and develop his ability, by forming and designing situations that are an incentive for the child to challenge his abilities, and acquiring basic motor skills requires that the child go through various experiences, attitudes and motor experiences within Guided Programs (Afaf Othman, 2013) 4. The training program: the researcher defines it procedurally as a set of planned and organized procedures based on scientific foundations to train children with autism disorder to perform various activities and motor skills and help them make the most of their capabilities and potentials, through a set of techniques and activities that help achieve the general goal. study, within a specified period of time. the Study hypothesizes • There are statistically significant differences between the mean rank of the experimental group and the control group in the post measurement on the scale of measure of social communication in favor of the experimental group. • There are statistically significant differences between the mean rank of the experimental group in the tribal and remote measurements on the SUMMARY 146 scale of measure of social communication in favor of the post measurement. • There are no statistically significant differences between the mean rank of the experimental group in the post and follow-up measurements on the scale measure of social communication. Methodology and Procedures Methodology The researcher used the experimental approach using the experimental design for two groups, one experimental and the other a control group, to verify the effectiveness of the training program using motor activities (the independent variable) in developing some social communication skills (the dependent variable). the study sample The study was conducted on a sample of (16) children with autism, who were deliberately selected from children attending Zahra Center and Ma’an Center for Communication in Zagazig, and they were divided into two equal groups, one experimental and the other control. tools of data collection The tools that were used in this study included three types of scales according to the purpose of each scale, between the tools for controlling the sample and selecting its members, and measuring tools for the research variables, and then the program used, as follows: A- Tools for controlling the sample and selecting its members, including: 1. Primary data form prepared by the researcher 2. The Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale, fifth image (definition of Safwat Farag, 2010) SUMMARY 147 3. The Gilliam-3 Scale for Estimating Symptoms of Autism Disorder in Childhood (GARS-3) Arabization by Adel Abdullah (2020) B- Measuring tools: It includes one scale: Social Communication Scale for Children with Autism Disorder, prepared by Prof. Dr. Adel Abdullah, researcher Ola Muhammad Ali C- The training program using motor activities to develop some social communication skills, prepared by Prof. Dr. Adel Abdullah, researcher Ola Muhammad Ali. the statistical treatments The non-parametric statistical methods of Mann-Whitney and Wilcoxon's Z-value were used the study result The results revealed the effectiveness of the training program using motor activities in developing social communication skills for children with autism disorder who are members of the experimental group in all dimensions of the social communication scale (cooperation, interaction, friendship formation and emotional expression) and in the total score of the scale, and the size of the effect of the program in general was strong. It also reflects the value of U, which indicates the size of that effect, and the continuity of the effect of the program was shown after the end of the program and during the follow-up period. the study recommended through the results of the study, the study recommended the need to use methods and standards that enable early diagnosis and intervention of disabilities and psychological and social disorders for children with autism disorder, as well as the need to pay attention to early intervention to develop social skills in children with autism disorder, and not only SUMMARY 148 integration within nurseries only, but it must Training children on social communication skills within the training rooms in order for education to be more effective. Care must also be given to motor activity programs when rehabilitating children with autism disorder because of their impact on developing their social communication skills and improving their level of development and personal social compatibility. Researches suggestions The researcher suggests a number of related general topics that can be studied as follows: 1. The effectiveness of a program using motor activities in developing the academic skills of children with autism 2. The effectiveness of a program using motor activities in developing some language skills for children with autism 3. The effectiveness of a program using motor activities to develop some social skills for autistic childre
