Abstract

Magistrsko delo obravnava doživljanje socialnega življenja odraslih oseb z avtističnimi motnjami (v nadaljevanju AM). V teoretičnem delu sem se osredotočila na definicije avtizma in Aspergerjevega sindroma skozi različne teorije. Dotaknila sem se pomembnosti zgodnjega diagnosticiranja AM, nadaljnjega dela z otroki z AM in kasneje dela z odraslimi z AM. V zadnjem delu sem se posvetila značilnostim socialnega življenja odraslih z AM, predvsem področju izobraževanja, zaposlovanja, bivanja, socialnih odnosov in težav, s katerimi se pri tem ali ob tem srečujejo. Pregledala sem tudi razširjenost različnih oblik pomoči za odrasle z AM ter namenila pozornost slovenskim in tujim raziskavam s področja dela z odraslimi z AM. V empiričnem delu sem poskušala s kvalitativno analizo petih polstrukturiranih intervjujev, ki sem jih izvedla z odraslimi osebami z AM, dobiti čim bolj kompleksen vpogled v njihovo socialno življenje iz vidika njihovega osebnega doživljanja. Dobljene rezultate sem v empiričnem delu predstavila v sedmih vsebinskih sklopih, in sicer: diagnosticiranje, izobraževanje, zaposlovanje, bivanje, socialna participacija, pomoč in prihodnost. Socialno vključevanje odraslim osebam z AM velikokrat predstavlja težavo, saj je socialni primanjkljaj med osebami z AM najbolj izražen. Moja raziskava potrjuje, da je socialno udejstvovanje odraslih oseb z AM v Sloveniji premalo raziskano in da je tu veliko prostora za delovanje socialne pedagogike.

Secondary title: Experiencing of social life of adults with autistic disorders
Secondary abstract: This Master's thesis deals with how people with autistic disorders experience social life. In the theoretical part, I focused on the definitions of autism and Asperger's syndrome through various theories. I also briefly described the importance of early identification of autistic disorders, working further with children and later working with adults with autistic disorders. In the last part, I focused on the characteristics of the social life of adults with autistic disorders, particularly on their education, employment, living arrangements, social relationships, and the problems that they face within these areas. I examined the prevalence of various forms of assistance for adults with autistic disorders and reviewed the Slovenian and foreign research in this field. In the empirical part, using qualitative analysis of five semi-structured interviews I had carried out with adults with autistic disorders, I tried to get a complex insight into their social life through their own personal experiences. The results are presented in seven thematic sets: diagnosis, education, employment, living arrangements, social participation, support, and the future. Social integration can be a problem for adults with autistic disorders as they often have a pronounced social deficit. My study confirms that social participation of adults with autistic disorders has been insufficiently researched in Slovenia and that there is plenty of space for social pedagogy to participate in it.
