Autism disorder is usually characterized by the inability
to understand and interpret emotional and social signs and
signals, the lack or weakness of paying attention to what
others pay attention to, and the inability to understand the
direct and fluent concepts of other people's thoughts and
feelings. The current research was conducted with the aim
of the effectiveness of the combined program based on
the theory of mind method and the flower time method on
the stereotyped behaviors of children with autism
spectrum disorder. The current research project is a
developmental-applicative goal, and it is semiexperimental in terms of implementation method. The
population of the present study was all children aged 2 to
5 years with autism spectrum disorder who referred to
Autism center of Rafsanjan, who were willing to
cooperate and participate in the meetings on behalf of
themselves and their families. The sample included 5
children between 25 and 5 years old with autism spectrum
disorder. These people were selected as a purposive
sampling and investigated in a single group study with a
single subject design. The research tool was Gilliam
Gazer's (1994) questionnaire. The results showed that the
combined training method based on the theory of mind
method and the flortime method had an effect on the
scores of stereotyped behaviors with a recovery
percentage between 14 and 46 percent. It seems that the
intervention based on the theory of mind method and the
flower time method can be effective in reducing
stereotypic behavior in the adaptation of children with
autism.
