Child Centered Play Therapy

Anak Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) kesulitan mengembangkan dan menumbuhkan kemampuan sosial dan emosi dalam pola yang sama dengan perkembangan anak seusianya. Anak ASD seringkali memiliki kesulitan untuk menginisiasi sebuah permainan dan secara umum tidak menyukai interaksi sosial timbal balik. Defisit joint attention merupakan core yang ditampilkan oleh anak ASD dalam kriteria DSM 4 (APA,1994). Child Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) adalah terapi yang memiliki salah satu area tujuannya yaitu joint attention. Penelitian sebelumnya menyebutkan, CCPT dapat efektif untuk meningkatkan kemampuan joint attention sehingga meningkatkan kemampuan berinteraksi sosial bagi anak dengan ASD. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mengetahui efektivitas CCPT untuk meningkatkan kemampuan Joint Attention pada anak ASD sehingga mampu merespon dan terlibat dalam lingkungan sosial. Desain penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan single case-experiment pre-testpost-test design dengan mengukur skor kemampuan joint attention meliputi kemampuan inisiative joint attention (IJA) dan kemampuan response joint attention (RJA) pada anak ASD dengan usia tiga tahun saat sebelum dan sesudah diberikan CCPT. CCPT diberikan sebanyak dua puluh sesi terapi selama empat minggu. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian yang dilakukan, ditemukan bahwa Child Centered Play Therapy (CCPT) dapat meningkatkan inisiative joint attention (IJA) dengan perbandingan skor pada post-test lebih tinggi (77,56) dibandingankan dengan pre-test (38,12).

Child Centered Play Therapy

This study examined the sequential relations among three pertinent variables in child psychotherapy: therapeutic alliance (TA) (including ruptures and repairs), autism symptoms, and adherence to child-centered play therapy (CCPT) process. A 2-year CCPT of a 6-year-old Caucasian boy diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder was conducted weekly with two doctoral-student therapists, working consecutively for 1 year each, in a university-based community mental-health clinic. Sessions were video-recorded and coded using the Child Psychotherapy Process Q-Set (CPQ), a measure of the TA, and an autism symptom measure. Sequential relations among these variables were examined using simulation modeling analysis (SMA). In Therapist 1’s treatment, unexpectedly, autism symptoms decreased three sessions after a rupture occurred in the therapeutic dyad. In Therapist 2’s treatment, adherence to CCPT process increased 2 weeks after a repair occurred in the therapeutic dyad. The TA decreased 1 week after autism symptoms increased. Finally, adherence to CCPT process decreased 1 week after autism symptoms increased. The authors concluded that (1) sequential relations differ by therapist even though the child remains constant, (2) therapeutic ruptures can have an unexpected effect on autism symptoms, and (3) changes in autism symptoms can precede as well as follow changes in process variables.
