Autism Spectrum Disorder01:19

Autism Spectrum Disorder

59
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition marked by persistent deficits in social communication and interaction alongside restrictive and repetitive behaviors or interests. ASD is sometimes accompanied by intellectual impairment.
These core symptoms manifest differently among individuals, ranging from mild to severe. The disorder's complexity extends beyond its clinical presentation, encompassing a diverse range of biological, cognitive, and sociocultural influences.

Modeling in Therapy01:26

Modeling in Therapy

46
Modeling, a key technique in therapy, uses observational learning to help clients acquire and practice new skills by watching therapists demonstrate desired behaviors. This approach, rooted in Albert Bandura's concept of vicarious learning, plays a significant role in therapeutic interventions for various psychological conditions, including social anxiety, ADHD, and depression.

Operant Conditioning Intervention01:24

Operant Conditioning Intervention

43
Operant conditioning serves as a foundational principle in therapeutic interventions aimed at modifying maladaptive behaviors. Central to this approach is the notion that behaviors, both adaptive and maladaptive, are learned through reinforcement. By analyzing the environmental factors that reinforce problematic behaviors, clinicians can design interventions to weaken these reinforcements and replace maladaptive behaviors with healthier alternatives.
In operant conditioning, behaviors that are...

Purpose of the Study:

  • To systematically review research on serious gaming platforms for individuals with ASD.
  • To identify characteristics and design criteria for effective SGs.
  • To present the benefits and drawbacks of using SGs for ASD interventions.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic literature review utilizing the PRISMA diagram.
  • Analysis of current research on serious gaming platforms for autism.
  • Evaluation of design criteria, benefits, and disadvantages.

Main Results:

  • Most current SG platforms focus on prototyping and enhancing social-emotional skills.
  • Serious gaming platforms show potential for improving functioning in individuals with ASD.
  • Identified disadvantages include financial costs and complexity of implementation.

Conclusions:

  • Serious games are a viable tool for supporting individuals with ASD.
  • There is a need for platforms targeting a wider ASD audience.
