250 Tips that Cover Autism's 20 Biggest Challenges!250 Lifehacks for Young Autistic Adults: Your Guide to a Simpler Life covers—with humor and sensitivity—the twenty biggest challenges for people with autism. Written in collaboration with autistic individuals, it illustrates what autistics can do themselves to tackle these challenges, and also how others can help. Though the book is primarily written for adults with autism, it is also an excellent guide for their friends, neighbors, partners, parents and employers. By reading about the challenges and the accompanying tips, people without autism can also gain a better insight into what autistics struggle with, where these challenges come from, and how they can help and support them.As mentioned, the selection of the twenty challenges and all tips in this book are the result of meetings of people with autism, more specifically ambassadors of “Strengthmakers in Autism.” This is an organization that strives for full inclusion of autistic individuals. At the back of the book the ambassadors introduce themselves.Topics include:Setting boundaries and daring to say noPlanning and organizingMaking choices and decisionsDealing with unpredictable eventsAnd much more!

What if our previous teachings and beliefs regarding processing stimuli, reading emotions and understanding human behaviour is all untrue? In this book, Peter Vermeulen investigates new findings on the predictive brain and what these insights mean for autism and current interventions. Recent research has shown that the classic ideas about how the human brain first needs to process incoming information about the world before it can react are no longer tenable. Rather, to survive in the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment of modern society, what we need is a brain that predicts the world quickly and unconsciously, while taking proper account of the context. This book explains the new theories relating to the predictive brain, summarising some of the more recent highly technical research studies about the predictive mind and autism into as accessible and understandable language as possible. Shedding new light on the predictive brain and its relation to autism, the chapters lead readers to the inevitable conclusion that many of the current interventions used in connection with autism urgently need updating and outline possibilities for revising. This approachable book synthesises advanced research for professionals across disciplines working with people with autism spectrum disorder along with readers who have or have family members with ASD.

Offering a playful and engaging way to encourage young people, especially those on the autism spectrum, to think about themselves and their wider environment, this cooperative board game is perfect for working with groups of children and young adults with autism of all ages (10 and up).Each player works to create their own cartoon figure, emphasising how everyone is unique, and the figure includes elements that shows both how they look from the outside, and their inner characteristics. Games typically last around an hour, and discussion points are provided afterwards, to open conversation about their character, and about the nature of autism.

I am Special is a workbook developed by Peter Vermeulen and already used extensively with young people with autism spectrum disorder. The workbook is designed for a child to work through with an adult - parent, teacher or other professional. Unlike other books, its content and layout are devised especially for children who read, think and process information differently.I am Special is divided into two parts. The first is a theoretical introduction that explains how to inform children that they have autism or Asperger Syndrome and how to use the worksheets with groups or individuals. The second part consists of a series of worksheets which the child works through with an adult to create a unique and personal book about him or herself. It includes a series of exercises that present autism positively. They strike a balance between general facts, information about autism and personal information, covering the strengths an autistic person may have as well as the difficulties they may face.I am Special can be used with young people over the age of ten years. Not only is it an excellent source of information for the autistic child; it can be the first step in a process of counselling or psychotherapy or the springboard for a discussion group on autism.

To understand the ways people with autism think, Peter Vermeulen argues, we need to try to get inside their world. The latest scientific thinking is clearly explained, and illustrated by numerous personal accounts. This introductory book offers the reader a real window into the autistic mind and the very individual way in which it processes information.Honest and accessible, this book will be invaluable to anyone involved in the care of an autistic child.

Untersuchungen in Europa, Kanada und den USA ergaben, dass bei sechs bis sieben von tausend Personen eine Autismus-Spektrum-Störung (ASS) diagnostiziert wird. Was bedeutet das?Mit »Autismus als Kontextblindheit« beschreibt Peter Vermeulen eine neue Sichtweise zum Autismus-Verständnis. Seine Kernaussage lautet: Menschen mit Autismus zeigen in der Wahrnehmung ihrer objektbezogenen und sozialen Umwelt Probleme bei der schnellen, vorbewussten, intuitiven Erfassung und Nutzung von Kontextinformation. Dieses im Vergleich zu anderen Menschen herabgesetzte Gespür für Kontext ist hirnorganisch begründet und erklärt die autistischen Besonderheiten in Wahrnehmung, sozialer Interaktion, Kommunikation und Denken. Peter Vermeulen knüpft (kritisch) an viele bestehende neurokognitive Erklärungsansätze an und untermauert und belegt seine Thesen mit zahlreichen wissenschaftlichen Untersuchungsergebnissen, aber auch mit Beispielen aus seiner langjährigen praktischen Erfahrung mit Menschen aus dem Autismus-Spektrum.Allgemeinverständlich und unterhaltsam geschrieben eröffnet das Buch Betreuern, Lehrern, Begleitern und Eltern von Menschen mit Autismus neue Sichtweisen. Es zeigt Strategien zur Kompensation bzw. Hinweise und Beispiele für eine autismusfreundliche Gestaltung der Umwelt und gibt so neue Impulse für den Alltag der Betroffenen.

Leicht verständlich fasst das Buch moderne Forschungsergebnisse zum prädiktiven Gehirn in Zusammenhang mit Autismus zusammen. Es richtet sich an Fachleute aller Disziplinen, die mit Menschen im Autismus-Spektrum arbeiten, sowie an Betroffene und deren Familienangehörige.Um in der unsteten, unsicheren, komplexen und mehrdeutigen Welt der modernen Gesellschaft zurechtzukommen, benötigen wir ein Gehirn, das dieser Welt mit schnellen und unbewussten Vorhersagen begegnet und dabei den jeweiligen Kontext angemessen berücksichtigt.Das Buch wirft ein neues Licht auf das prädiktive, "vorhersagende" Gehirn und dessen Bezug zu Autismus und kommt zum Schluss, dass einige der derzeit im Zusammenhang mit Autismus angewandten Maßnahmen dringend einer Aktualisierung bedürfen. Möglichkeiten zur Neuausrichtung werden aufgezeigt.

Mitä tarkoittaa, kun ihminen nostaa käden pystyyn? Pyytääkö hän puheenvuoroa, tervehtiikö hän toista ihmistä vai suojaako hän vain silmiä auringonpaisteelta? Ei-autistiset ihmiset ymmärtävät hetkessä, mistä on kyse, koska he ymmärtävät, miten konteksti vaikuttaa tulkintaan. Autismikirjon ihmisille vaihtuvat kontekstit tuottavat kuitenkin vaikeuksia.Autismi ja kontekstisokeus osoittaa, kuinka merkittävästi konteksti vaikuttaa jokapäiväisessä elämässämme. Se ohjaa havaintojamme ja on läsnä kaikessa sosiaalisessa vuorovaikutuksessa sekä asioiden luokittelussa. Kontekstin merkitystä on vaikea ymmärtää, koska sen käyttö on huomaamatonta ja automaattista.Autismi ja kontekstisokeus on helppolukuinen teos, joka vie lukijansa mielenkiintoiselle matkalle toisenlaisten ihmisen maailmaan. Lukuisten esimerkkien avulla se avaa oven autismikirjon ihmisten ymmärtämiseen ja tulkitsemiseen. Teoreettisen pohdinnan sijaan kirjassa on käytännön vinkkejä niin autismikirjon ihmisille kuin muillekin.
