Abstract: The clinical-psychological-pedagogical picture of autistic personality disorders of a child is highly complex and diverse compared to other mental development disorders. The divergence of researchers’ views on the autism clinic leads to a scientific discussion on the problem of conceptual and terminological base of definitions and concepts, so, as a consequence, the problem has a conceptual and diagnostic orientation.
Summarizing the research of scientists, we highlight the characteristic
manifestations of autism in older preschool age: lack of mental activity;
violation of the interaction of mental functions; unevenness, partialness of
intellectual development; gross violations of purposefulness and
arbitrariness of attention; lack of lively interest, interest in the new,
environmental research; the tendency to perceive information as if
passively absorbing it into whole blocks; the reaction of departure from
the influences of the environment directed on the child; adverse reaction or
no reaction at all when trying to draw attention to the objects of the
surrounding reality; rapid exhaustion and oversaturation with any
purposeful activity; difficulty concentrating; difficulties in symbolization,
transfer of skills from one situation to another; impaired formation of
social and communicative functions. Having analyzed many scientific
studies, we can determine the number and variety of speech disorders in
children with autistic disorders: challenging to interpret crying; limited
barking; lack of imitation of sounds; phonography of speech; mutism;
echolalia; words-stamps, phrases-stamps; neologisms; limited use of
pronouns; lack of speech in speech; speech autonomy; speech disorders;
inability to form words; violation of the semantic, syntactic, grammatical
structure of speech; violation of speech melody; violation of prosodic
components of speech; inability to engage in dialogue; specificity of the
development of monologue speech.
