Ergenlik Dönemi A-tipik Otizmli Obez Bireylere Fiziksel Aktivite ve Diyetle Müdahale

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, ergenlik dönemi A-tipik otizmli obez bireylere fiziksel aktivite ve diyet programı ile müdahalenin etkisini ve önemini ortaya koyabilmektir. Tek denekli araştırma modellerinden, tekli başlangıç çoklu yoklama modeli kullanılmıştır. Araştırmanın evrenini, Isparta ilinde yaşayan, dokuz (9) ile on dört (14) yaş aralığındaki A-tipik otizmli çocuklar oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini ise, araştırmaya gönüllü olarak katılmayı kabul eden bir (1) çocuk oluşturmuştur. Araştırma ön ölçümlerin alındığı ilk hafta ve on altı (16) hafta uyarlanmış fiziksel aktivite ve diyet programının uygulanması olmak üzere toplamda on yedi (17) hafta sürmüştür. Veri toplama aracı olarak çocuğun kilo ölçümü her çalışma öncesinde tanita ile ölçülerek kaydedilmiştir. Uygulama sonunda elde edilen veriler, grafik üzerinde gösterilerek analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmaya katılan katılımcı sayısının bir (1) olması nedeniyle on yedi (17) haftalık süreçte elde edilen veriler ölçek protokolüne uygun şekilde nokta puana dönüştürülerek, meydana gelen değişimi ortaya koymak için çizgi grafiğe dönüştürülmüştür. Araştırma sonunda, katılımcıya ilk hafta fiziksel akitvite ve diyet programı uygulanmadan vücut ağırlığında bir değişiklik tespit edilmemiştir. Katılımcıya on altı (16) hafta boyunca uygulanan fiziksel aktivite ve diyet programı ile katılımcının vücut ağırlığında beş (5) kilogram azalma tespit edilmiştir. Katılımcının vücut ağırlığında beş (5) kilogramlık azalmada katılımcının fiziksel aktivite sıklığı, beslenme alışkanlıkları, ebeveynlerin farkındalığı, sosyo-ekonomik düzey ve psiko-sosyal gibi faktörlerin etkili olduğu düşünülmektedir.

Intervation with Physical Activity and Dietary Adolescent Obese Individuals with A-typical Autism

Öz

The aim of this study is to reveal the effect and importance of physical activity and diet program in adolescence obese individuals with A-typical autism. One of the single-subject research models, the single-start multiple probe model was used. The population of the study consists of children with A-typical autism between the ages of nine (9) and fourteen (14) living in Isparta. The sample of the study consisted of one (1) child who voluntarily agreed to participate in the study. The study lasted for a total of seventeen (17) weeks, including the first week of pre-measurements and the implementation of an adapted physical activity and diet program for sixteen (16) weeks. As a data collection tool, the child's weight measurement was recorded with Tanita before each study. The data obtained at the end of the application were analyzed by showing them on the graph. Since the number of participants participating in the study was one (1), the data obtained in the seventeen (17) week period were converted into points in accordance with the scale protocol and turned into a line chart to reveal the change that occurred. At the end of the research, no change was observed in body weight without applying physical activity and diet program to the participant in the first week. With the physical activity and diet program applied to the participant for sixteen (16) weeks, a decrease of five (5) kilograms in the participant's body weight was detected. Factors such as the frequency of physical activity of the participant, dietary habits, awareness of parents, socio-economic status, and psycho-social are thought to be effective in this decrease in body weight.
