فعالية برنامج قائم على أنشطة الحصص البدنية والرياضية في تنمية التفاعل الاجتماعي لدى أطفال التوحد
The study aimed to know the role of physical education and sports activities in developing social interaction among autistic children. To achieve this, the quasi-experimental approach was used to achieve objective goals. The study sample consisted of 30 children with autism with a degree of autism (mild-moderate) and their ages ranged from (5-7 years). This study was conducted at the Autistic Children's Association of Blida. To answer the study questions, we relied on the application of a program for physical and sports activities, which necessitated dividing the study sample into an experimental group to which this program was applied and a control group to which it was not applied. To measure social interaction, we conducted a pre- and post-measurement on both groups, so that the results indicated the presence of statistically significant differences in the degree of social interaction in favor of the experimental group, which confirms the contribution of the physical education and sports activities program in developing social interaction among autistic children.
