| Research Abstract |
We summarized how people with pervasive developmental disorder(PDD) experienced adolescence, and how they perceived their budding sexual awareness and changes in the self from secondary sexual characteristics, based on their own experiential world. Psychopathological methods were also used initially, and we examined changes in awareness with age. Based on the results of a survey of the actual sexual behaviors of PDD individuals, we prepared a tool to assess their sexual behavior. In addition, from a survey of parents, we clarified the discrepancy between the sexual behaviors demanded socially according to their age(school year) and sex, and the sexual behaviors of individuals with PDD themselves. A support program for sex specific to the characteristics of PDD was developed(preparation of a workbook for those individuals and a manual for parents and people providing support), and the effects were measured after implementation. Finally, the research results were made available to general society through various training sessions for people who support individuals with PDD.
