Poco Contacto Visual || AUTISMO: Mundo Azul 💙 (Part 1) [Esp-Eng]
El contacto visual entre los individuos es calificado como una norma social que debe existir para establecer vínculos y para que ocurra una buena comunicación. Ciertamente, el contacto visual es una de las acciones principales para la conexión entre las personas, y la sociedad ha instaurado la importancia de mirar directamente a los ojos como un asunto de modales que simboliza concentración, sin embargo hay personas que evitan las miradas por sentirse incómodas como el caso de los autistas.
Una de las características que se suele resaltar cuando se habla del Trastorno del Espectro Autista, es la relacionada con la mirada fija, aquella perdida, como ausente, por lo que se dice que la persona con autismo no tiene contacto visual. Incluso esta característica es una señal de alerta para el diagnóstico de la condición. Esta particularidad en la conducta indica el deficiente desarrollo emocional que afecta las destrezas sociales y comunicacionales, lo que puede agudizarse o superarse de acuerdo a la atención brindada en cualquiera de los niveles de autismo: Severo, moderado y leve.
Entre la diversidad de casos de autismo que existen en el mundo se encuentran niños y adultos que mantienen con esfuerzo el contacto visual, es decir que esta deficiencia emocional, social y comunicacional puede superarse con estrategias aplicadas de acuerdo a las necesidades de cada individuo. Lo que deja claro que las personas autistas si pueden mantener la mirada directamente a los ojos de otra persona y por eso los especialistas se valen de distintas herramientas visuales y estrategias que estimulan el contacto visual con éxito.
Ante un niño con autismo que ha sido diagnosticado temprano y emprendido las acciones de apoyo familiar y profesional, se ven los frutos traducidos en la modificación de algunas conductas como aprender a mantener la mirada o mejorarla. Cual sea el caso, el niño autista que recibe atención en esta deficiencia es alentado y es integrado, aunque no dejará de ser un individuo introvertido pero logrará no estar completamente escondido del mundo “normal.”
Por lo general, la mirada esquiva en los niños preocupa pues esta debe ser fija desde los primeros meses de vida, en caso contrario lo recomendable es referir esta conducta al pediatra quien hará la valoración pertinente. De ser necesario se solicitará una evaluación neurológica para determinar la causa, pues existen varias, desde problemas en el nervio óptico, hasta algún trastorno del neurodesarrollo como el autismo. Aunque este puede sospecharse siendo un bebé, un diagnostico preciso se puede hacer a partir de los 18 meses, sin embargo hay quienes prefieren esperar la edad de 3 años.
Es muy importante que los padres o cuidadores de niños estén atentos porque la debilidad en el contacto visual se puede presentar en los niveles de autismo modero y leve, es decir que no es solo una característica del autismo severo o puro, que es el autismo profundo. Como he dicho en otras oportunidades, sin importar el tipo de autismo todos los casos pueden presentar mejorías, como el mejor manejo de la mirada.
Estrategias que estimulan el contacto visual en los autistas:
Los niños con autismo tienden a fijar la mirada en los objetos de su interés que en los ojos de las personas, por eso pon atención a las siguientes tácticas que Cognitivo Centro de Terapias ofrece:
Hablarle de frente y en la misma altura del niño: Cuando se le habla al niño hay que estar a su altura, si está sentado sentarse frente a él, si está de pie agacharse al nivel de su estatura. Esto facilita al niño contacto visual.
Mantener distancia: Estar separado sin mucho acercamientos que haga sentir invadido al niño y le cause sensación de acoso.
Mostrar los materiales de trabajo: Siempre a la altura de los ojos presentarle los juguetes, piezas, tarjetas, libros y todos los elementos que se vayan a utilizar.
Hablarle de temas de su interés: Capta su atención con temas cortos sobre temas que le apasionen o que sepas que despiertan su interés.
Ubica las cosas que interesan al niños frente a tu cara: Cuando el niño te pida uno o varios objetos de su interés colócalos frente a tu rostro.
Hacer que toque tu cara: Con sutileza tomar sus manos y ponerlas en tu cara. Esta estrategia es muy importante y de debe darse de acuerdo a la disposición del niño, sin forzarlo.
Jugar frente al espejo: Algo tan divertido como lo es jugar frente al espejo es una estrategia que ofrece muy buenos resultado, porque el niño puede encontrar su mirada.
Puedes ampliar las estrategias consultando la Fuente.
El éxito de éstas y otras estrategias que con seguridad nuestras amigas @sandracabrera, @nanyuris y @zullyscott pueden ampliar, dependerá del seguimiento adecuado, por parte de los padres en conjunto con los médicos especialistas y terapistas. La documentación de los padres sobre la atención eficaz al niño con autismo, garantizará que este se desarrolle como un ser integral. Una vez que el autista alcanza la edad adulta, logra, aunque con cierta dificultad, mantener mejor la mirada pero necesita seguir descubriendo paso a paso, a su propio ritmo que no está aislado en su propio mundo.
Crezcamos juntos:
📢 Los autistas pueden mejorar su contacto visual.
📢 Existen estrategias para estimular la mirada directa a los ojos.
📢 Los autistas mejoran emocional, social y comunicacionalmente con el progreso en el contacto visual.
📢 Hay que buscar a tiempo orientación de personal especializado en autismo.

•• ENGLISH ••
Eye contact between individuals is qualified as a social norm that must exist in order to establish bonds and for good communication to occur. Certainly, eye contact is one of the main actions for the connection between people, and society has established the importance of looking directly into the eyes as a matter of manners that symbolizes concentration, however there are people who avoid looks because they feel uncomfortable as in the case of autistic people.
One of the characteristics that is usually highlighted when talking about Autism Spectrum Disorder, is related to the fixed gaze, that lost, as absent, so it is said that the person with autism has no eye contact. Even this characteristic is a warning sign for the diagnosis of the condition. This particularity in the behavior indicates the deficient emotional development that affects the social and communicational skills, which can be sharpened or overcome according to the attention provided in any of the levels of autism: Severe, moderate and mild.
Among the diversity of cases of autism that exist in the world are children and adults who effortlessly maintain eye contact, meaning that this emotional, social and communicational deficiency can be overcome with strategies applied according to the needs of each individual. This makes it clear that autistic people can keep looking directly into the eyes of another person and that is why specialists use different visual tools and strategies that stimulate eye contact successfully.
In the case of a child with autism who has been diagnosed early and who has undertaken the actions of family and professional support, we see the fruits translated into the modification of some behaviors such as learning to maintain the gaze or improve it. Whatever the case, the autistic child who receives care in this deficiency is encouraged and is integrated, although he will not cease to be an introverted individual but will manage not to be completely hidden from the "normal" world.
In general, the elusive gaze in children is of concern because it should be fixed from the first months of life, otherwise it is advisable to refer this behavior to the pediatrician who will make the appropriate assessment. If necessary, a neurological evaluation will be requested to determine the cause, since there are several causes, from problems in the optic nerve to a neurodevelopmental disorder such as autism. Although this can be suspected as a baby, an accurate diagnosis can be made from the age of 18 months, however there are those who prefer to wait until the age of 3 years.
It is very important that parents or caregivers of children are attentive because the weakness in eye contact can occur in the levels of mild and moderate autism, that is to say that it is not only a characteristic of severe or pure autism, which is the profound autism. As I have said on other occasions, regardless of the type of autism, all cases can present improvements, such as better gaze management.
Strategies that stimulate eye contact in autistics:
Children with autism tend to fix their gaze on objects of their interest than on people's eyes, so pay attention to the following tactics that Cognitivo Centro de Terapias offers:
Speak to the child from the front and at the same height as the child: When talking to the child you have to be at his height, if he is sitting sit in front of him, if he is standing bend down to the level of his height. This makes it easier for the child to make eye contact.
Keep distance: Be separate without too much approach that makes the child feel invaded and causes a sense of harassment.
Show work materials: Always at eye level present toys, parts, cards, books and all items to be used.
Talk to him about topics of his interest: Capture his attention with short topics on subjects he is passionate about or that you know pique his interest.
Place things that interest the child in front of your face: When the child asks you for one or more objects that interest him/her, place them in front of your face.
Have him touch your face: Gently take his hands and put them on your face. This strategy is very important and should be given according to the child's disposition, without forcing it.
Playing in front of the mirror: Something as fun as playing in front of the mirror is a strategy that offers very good results, because the child can find his look.
You can expand the strategies by consulting the Source.
The success of these and other strategies that for sure our friends @sandracabrera, @nanyuris and @zullyscott can expand on, will depend on proper follow-up, by parents in conjunction with medical specialists and therapists. Parental documentation of effective care for the child with autism will ensure that the child develops as a whole being. Once the autistic reaches adulthood, he or she manages, albeit with some difficulty, to maintain a better gaze but needs to continue to discover step by step, at his or her own pace that he or she is not isolated in his or her own world.
Let's grow together:
📢 Autistic people can improve their eye contact.
📢 Strategies exist to stimulate direct eye gaze.
📢 autistic individuals improve emotionally, socially and communicatively with progress in eye contact.
📢 Guidance should be sought in a timely manner from personnel specialized in autism.

Notice many "new users" on Hive? Not many, like this place is a disease. No outside communities bringing in new comers. No other sites having many links or no links to any articles from Hive on sites that show professional interests they view as noteworthy to a profession or hobby. Hive articeles are rare on reddit.com. Wouldnt people post on reddit.com with links to their articles attracting their own new following and groups? No crypto forums acknowledge Hive exists as a place to be either. Ever seen a person asking for support show a way to give support with HIVE listed as a supporting wallet address? Is there a world address on Hive for countries made more unfortunate because of Hive? Would a large Hive holder or large earner of Hive donate a LARGE amount of Hive to help support Ukraine? What? Support something thing that could attract unwanted media attention? Nothing to see here......I dont get out much though.
People are hiding exposure to Hive. People either play dumb, could be scared or intimidated, mislead or dont beilieve it. Maybe just not electronically cultured enough to know. Who knows. Its mostly fake with fake attention paid for by people with ill intentions as many do gloating in their own groups special mindset. Such a small town here to support this kind of high pay. Who is buying Hive tokens with no notable new user base coming in? People trying to buy this place as a grooming ground on the sly. Articles that arent in the interests of their own goals and views dont get much attention. I dont see many high paid articles I would put on a real news sites or link to as noteworthy. Be part of one of their groups and they groom you. They buy comment and article writers in ways that keep their lies hidden. Here to take our FREEDOMS completely in treason as the sacks of shit they are.
Most interest groups and businesses have discord rooms on the side because they wont talk here or more able to teach views there to shill out of public view. They can do odd stuff to you in discord rooms they cant do here. I’ve seen people get mugged and shaken down in discords, be careful while visiting new discords, even if they are a business. They shut down the discord room along with all of the evidence of their crimes the group around @fyrstikken and his discord server @steemspeak. They also hide behind skirts there while on the creep like they do in the new ones they are in.
The operators doing V2K with remote neural monitoring want me to believe this lady @battleaxe is an operator. She is involved in the same discord groups around @fyrstikken and friends. Her discord is Battleaxe#1003. Shes in some groups with seemingly detached characters that dont even acknowledge the others in the group, looking oddly staged. She starts projects and does nothing with it or the delegations after its used to sway people. Like @steempowertwins does<------fake along with her @teamgood <------fake. No substance in her comments and has a following that adores her for what? Life coach she is not nor is she insightful with any meaningful skills to follow. Ruler of pixie dust maybe? I would like for someone to show me but probably wont out fear maybe? @fyrstikken groups around him down voted me into censored and not viewable on my accounts as soon I told what they were doing.
I cant prove @battleaxe is the one directly doing the V2K and RNM. Doing it requires more than one person at the least. It cant be done alone. She cant prove she is not one of the ones doing V2K because she cant and could care less. I guarantee she knows this is going around and still wont prove it because she cant. Many of us here can prove what they have been doing to survive the past 5 years. What does she live off of? It definitely isnt in public view here.
I was drugged in my home covertly, it ended badly. They have been trying to kill me using RNM with applied V2K mental games while revealing as many accessories to the crime as they can. I bet nobody does anything at all. Ask @battleaxe to prove it. I bet she wont. Pretty serious accusations to just blow off and leave the crypto community hanging in fear of this danger.
They want me to believe the V2K and RNM in me is being broadcast from her location. And what the fuck is "HOMELAND SECURITY" doing about this shit? I think stumbling over their own dicks maybe? Just like they did and are doing with the Havana Syndrome. They should start by looking at the communications between the top witnesses of Hive and the connection to @fyrstikken groups. Google his fucking name and see where his other interests lie around at least once maybe? The connections between @fyrstikken groups and all the exchanges built for Hive? Bet that would reveal some crazy ball less nutty shit. Homeland security should start preparing for their own incarcerations seeing how sloppy this was done. Patriot act my ass. Think we are really fools? Bad position your not getting out of. Dont be last to blow the whistle. Who will protect you?
People in and around @fyrstikkens groups are reckless and should have shown the proper media what they had before taking me hostage for 5 long torturing years and counting. That is a long time to wait for someone to die.
What would you say while having a gun pointed at your head from an undisclosed location? Have people find it? My hands are tied while they play like children with a gun to my head. Its a terrorist act on American soil while some yawn and say its not real or Im a mental case. Many know its real. This is an ignored detrimental to humanity domestic threat. Ask informed soldiers in the American military what their oath is and why nothing is being done. Nobody has I guess. Maybe someone told ill informed soldiers they cant protect America from military leaders in control that have ill intent. How do we protect locked up soldiers prevented from telling the truth from being treated as criminals? Not to mention civilians we let our leaders treat the same way. https://ecency.com/fyrstikken/@fairandbalanced/i-am-the-only-motherfucker-on-the-internet-pointing-to-a-direct-source-for-voice-to-skull-electronic-terrorism-terrorism

@parauri
Muy buenos días.
.
Es un artículo bastante interesante y completo que contempla las aristas principales que se manejan a nivel del manejo conductual. Sabemos que el uso de la mirada como parte de la comunicación no verbal, mejora sustancialmente con las interacciones, especialmente de personas que son emocionalmente significativas para el niño.´
.
Todas estas estrategias puestas en marcha, sin dudas ayudan a fortalecer los vínculos que generan las capacidades intersubjetivas, las acciones conjuntas y las miradas de referencia conjunta. En el niño pequeño, los juegos (actividad rectora) circulares de acción e interacción sobre su cuerpo o sobre objetos sobre los cuales versen las relaciones, generan acciones cuya espontaneidad detonan las inter-conexiones afectivas y emocionales con las personas.
.
La literatura es otra de la actividades rectoras de la infancia, recuerdo que cuando trabajaba en el Centro de Desarrollo leí a un niño autista de 6 años con escaso lenguaje, el cuento ¨Los ojos de mamᨠy cuando salimos de la sesión de psicoterapia, él se dirigió a su mamá y con ambas manos le volteó la cabeza y le buscó la mirada...imagino que buscando su color.
.
Sin duda fue un experiencia única...por cierto, recomiendo el uso de este cuento para aquellos niños que u nivel de competencias le permita beneficiarse de esta lectura. Por aquí les dejo el texto (fotos con mi teléfono Samsung S5)...las ilustraciones son bellísimas, aunque no las incluí todas.
.
(

.
Me ha encantado tu post, @parauri, porque más allá de todo lo que sabemos sobre el autismo, exalta lo que debemos recordar siempre sobre nosotros mismos...que somos ante todo seres humanos al rescate de nuestra propia humanidad.
.
Saludos y un abrazo.
Hola @sandracabrera, buen día para ti. Que espectacular comentario! Gracias por el. Gracias por recomendar la literatura como actividad rectora de la infancia y gracias por compartir imágenes de este bello cuento. Gracias, gracias y gracias por compartir la experiencia con el niño autista de 6 años luego de la lectura de este libro. No tengo nada más que agregar para que no se pierda la esencia de tus palabras en este importante comentario.
¡Gracias Sandra!
Para ti mi fuerte abrazo virtual y azul 💙
@parauri
¡Saludos!, fue muy grato.
Hola ahora que dices lo del contacto visual mi hijo nunca tuvo problemas con eso, lo de era poco socializar como viviamos nosotros tres despues de que se fue el papa de casa, entonce el pensaba que solo nosotros tres y mas nadie o sea ni a la familia je je pero eso ya esta pasado mas bien ahora la lucha es que no tiene amigos de su edad y quisiera tenerlos que lo visiten o el visitar como ve que la hermana si el quisiera tambien es otra batalla a libarar pero saldremos
Hola @zhanavic69, disculpa de nuevo mi tardanza para responderte. Créeme soy de las que llega tarde pero segura 😊 Si, hay personas con autismo que aprenden a mantener la mirada, aunque a veces cuando están hablando con ellos tienden a ver para otro lado, fijan la mirada de momento pero la verdad es que no se sienten muy cómodos y la vuelven a desviar hacia otra parte. El entorno familiar positivo para el, lo ayuda a desarrollar seguridad y de echo mira como ha logrado desenvolverse en su vida escolar hasta llegar a 4to año.
Igualmente el apoyo que el ha recibido lo hace una persona más segura en otros ambientes y con otras personas y por eso esa deficiencia social relacionada al contacto visual está superada, aunque su mirada debe mostrar un poco de timidez y a veces prefiere estar metido en sus cosas sin ver a nadie fijo a la cara y menos a los ojos.
Sobre su carencia de amistades y su tristeza e inconformidad por la poca interacción social debes atenderla con la ayuda de un especialista, para evitar una depresión profunda. El está en una edad donde relacionarse es de mucha importancia, incluso puede cultivar otros sentimientos negativos perjudiciales para el.
Mi abrazo fuerte y virtual ♥
