AVILA BELTRAN, Flavia y SOLIZ, Henry. IMPACTO PSICOSOCIAL DEL AUTISMO EN LA FAMILIA. Gac Med Bol [online]. 2006, vol.29, n.1, pp.21-27. ISSN 1012-2966.
In Bolivia does not exist data about the number of autistic children, and we do not know how many families are affected. The present research has the aim to identify the psicosocial impact autistic children have on the family. The present work was done on 6 families with an autistic child. We find that all families are nuclear y have familial dysfunction at different grade, but they present a closer relationship between their members because the union that cause the autistic child. Most families have a chaotic adaptability with high stress levels, which family to crisis. From all family members, autistic brothers and sisters are most affected which take significative behaviour changes. The familial incomes are in general insufficient because the special needs of autistic. As a conclusion we can say that all autistic child families have chronic dysfunction, because not only the autistic child has socialization problem, but all the family. Also, there is a difficult to reach the diagnosis of autism and great difficulty with their treatment and management with disorientation of the family and the professionals about their priories.
