Traduction de Délinquance de Leo Kanner. En 1935, Leo Kanner publie Child Psychiatry (Psychiatrie de l’enfant) dont est tiré le chapitre ci-dessous qui nous dévoile un Leo Kanner clinicien de et dans la cité de cette première moitié du XXe siècle au plus près de la cause des enfants. Il se pose la question de savoir comment la société peut et doit accueillir la délinquance; après une longue revue de la littérature de son époque, il défend l’idée que la délinquance concerne au plus près le pédopsychiatre et que son rôle (à côté de tout l’appareil judiciaire) est de trouver avec l’enfant ou le jeune ce qu’il appellera à la suite de Plant le « casual breakdown ». Il s’agit de repérer avec l’enfant ce qui a fait événement subjectif et qui a déterminé les actes par la suite. C’est une approche psychodynamique qu’il soutient très finement dans ce chapitre de la Section 3 de son grand manuel de pédopsychiatrie Child Psychiatry.

The main goal of this article is to present an approach that allows the automatic management of autistic communication patterns by processing audio and video from the therapy session of individuals suffering autistic spectrum disorders (ASD). Such patients usually have social and communication alterations that make it difficult to evaluate the meaning of those expressions. As their communicational skills may have different degrees of variation, it is very hard to understand the semantics behind the verbal behavior. The current work is based on previous work on machine learning for individual performance evaluation. Statistics show that autistic verbal behavior are physically expressed by repetitive sounds and related movements that are evident and stereotyped. The works of Leo Kanner and Ángel Riviere are also considered here. Using machine learning and neural nets with certain set of parameters, it is possible to automatically detect patterns in audio and video recording of patient's performance, which is an interesting opportunity to communicate with ASD patients.

The cause of autism, termed by Eugen Bleuler in 1911, has not been elucidated to this day. A scientific and logical approach can be utilized to eliminate potential causes and consider ideas not thought of before. Therefore, it is proposed that literary creativity is in fact the causative agent of autism and that a biological cause of autism will never be found. This notion is substantiated through its very unscientific early history and verified with observations made by both Leo Kanner and Hans Asperger. Without a mechanism of pathology, it is suggested that perception plays a major role in both the dissemination and the cure of autism. The Chi-square test of independence of statistics was used for hypothesis testing to show the low probability that pathology is likely to be found in the word “egocentricity,” a term described to be one of the earliest precursors of autism. Therefore, due to the history of autism, autism is best defined as only a redefinition of the word “egocentricity.”
