[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 544959, member: 8045"] TeDo....this guy was so entertaining.....they run a training centre in Belgium that helps adult Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) people with transitioning and helping them with life skills....He has done this since I think the 70's or 80's? The other thing that was interesting is that more recent studies on Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) showed that there isnt SO MUCH difference between the results of NT and high functioning Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) people on tests like mind blindness......reading facial expressions.....and the rest that focus on consious brain activities!!!! The test in the past that concluded this theory was apparently done on classic autistic children who ussually ALSO have cognitive impairment!....So then they thought ok...so is it the lower IQ or Autism causing these results!!!??? So now they do the tests with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) people with normal IQ! Then they found that it must be something else causing the social anxiety and behaviour.....then research on reading context started...They found that NT peoples brains read clues UNCONSIOUSLY within the first 380 milli seconds ....And that Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) brains takes much longer or dont register some info at all!!!! He doesnt really believe in traditional social skill training with giving info, roleplay exct at all!!!!! Because what you teach a person in one situation will differ in a next situation, context......He went on asking us....So...What is this so called social inappropriate behaviour?! Because it all depends on the context! Whats nice on the one hand is that we as parents can help them with these skills of reading and understanding the context and shape behaviour every day.....The negative is.....We are going to get so tired!!!!! He went on telling us that we as adults and NT needs to try and understand the Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) persons reality or context from WITHIN! When we see THEIR behaviour in context, we can try and figure out why they behave the way they do....give them more info, explain the context, give them different scripts of behaviour and try and help them. BUT he also said that if the person is to anxious already....when they start showing repetitive behavior or asking questions over and over again.....they wont be able to register new info....Then they first have to go through the emotions.....
