Abstract
Bu çalışma, 2000–2012 yılları arasında okul öncesi dönemde 3–6 yaş aralığında otizm spektrum
bozukluğu(OSB) olançocuklara yönelik sosyal beceri öğretim müdahalelerini gözden geçirmek amacıyla
yapılmıştır. Araştırma üniversitelerin (Anadolu Üniversitesi ve Eskişehir Osmangazi Üniversitesi) online olarak
EBSCO (Academic Search Complete ve ERIC) ve SAGE veri tabanlarında yayımlanan23 makale
incelenerekgerçekleştirilmiştir. Đncelenen bu çalışmalar, OSB yelpazesinin farklı tanılarını içeren ve normal
gelişim gösteren 283 çocukla yapılmış araştırmalardır. Bu araştırmalarda farklı yöntemlerin kullanıldığı ve bu
farklı yöntemlerin etkililiklerinin sınandığı görülmüştür. Ayrıca OSB’li çocukların yoğun bir şekilde okul öncesi
eğitimlerden yararlandığı anlaşılmış ve erken tanılamaya bağlı olarak okul öncesi dönemde erken müdahalenin
önemli olduğu yapılan analizler sonucunda ortaya konmuştur. Yapılan analiz sonucunda, Türkiye’de okul öncesi
döneme ilişkin OSB’li çocuklara yönelik herhangi bir sosyal beceri öğretimi (SBÖ)’ne rastlanmamıştır.
Dolayısıyla Türkiye’de okul öncesi dönemde eğitimini sürdüren OSB’li çocuklara SBÖ’lerinin arttırılmasına
yönelik çalışmaların yapılması önerilebilir
