Behaviorism (or behaviourism), behavioral therapy
The term autism has been used for more than half a century and for many it means a kind of life sentence. It is believed that most of this diagnosis is doomed to a permanent deficit of communication, relationships and games. Only a small proportion of autistic children, which is about 5%, can achieve independence in their actions when they reach adulthood, but this percentage has several people who retain any signs of autism. According to observations, people with autism need long-term treatment and support throughout their lives. To date, the main position is the following — autism is a «severe form of lifelong incapacity». It is believed that it can be cured with a variety of therapies, medications, technologies that can help and even cure completely.
Until recently, new treatment methods have not yet presented any solid realistic reason to consider autism not as permanent incapacity. Now several works have provided real evidence that such an approach to treatment as early intensive training that uses methods of applied behavior analysis can give a real result for autistic children: many can successfully join a regular school, some can function perfectly normally. There are many scientific confirmations of the effectiveness of applied analysis techniques or interference in behavior, treatment of behavior can produce a general and lasting improvement in various important skills for people with autism, regardless of age.
Behaviour therapy is a broad term referring to clinical psychotherapy that uses techniques derived from behaviourism. Those who practice behaviour therapy tend to look at specific, learned behaviours and how the environment influences those behaviours. Those who practice behaviour therapy are called behaviourists, or behaviour analysts. They tend to look for treatment outcomes that are objectively measurable.
Behaviorism (or behaviourism) is a systematic approach to understanding the behavior of humans and other animals. It assumes that all behaviors are either reflexes produced by a response to certain stimuli in the environment, or a consequence of that individual’s history, including especially reinforcement and punishment, together with the individual’s current motivational state and controlling stimuli.
