Report topic: “THE MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF “SHUTDOWN” OF CHILDREN WITH AUTISTIC SPECTRUM DISORDERS”.
Research on the four main characteristics of children with autism spectrum disorders: emotional burnout, autistic inertia, outbursts, and shutdowns (BIMS) is almost non-existent in the current psychological literature; while the above-mentioned problems are often the cause of difficulties in the development of the child’s cognitive, emotional and behavioral spheres.
Above mentioned main features need in-depth research, highlighting the causes of their manifestation and identifying ways to overcome them are important in organizing effective work with autistic children.
