Drawing in children with Autism
Bezecná, Andrea ; Sotáková, Hana (advisor) ; Kucharská, Anna (referee)
This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of drawings in children with autism. It is divided into two parts, the theoretical and the empirical. In the first part I am foccusing mainly on theoretical findings about Autism Spectrum Disorder, continuing by children's drawings and it's development in population and at the end I'm attending to the specifics of the drawing of children with autism. The empirical part contains a description of data collection, a detailed case report of a child with Autism Spectrum Disorder and finally an analysis of dozens of drawing that I collected in collaboration with the child's parents. Data interpretation is supplemented by other informations, such as a course of drawing, comments or testimony of child's mother about the development of drawing expression and about the drawings themselves. The aim of my thesis is to determine whether there are specific features in the drawing of a child with Asperger Syndrome and subsequently these characters interconnect with literature and scientific knowledge about autism.

Psychological aspects of the late diagnosis of AS
Adámková, Jana ; Sotáková, Hana (advisor) ; Rendl, Miroslav (referee)
The principal purpose of this bachelor's thesis is to survey the psychological aspects of a late diagnosis (in adolescence and later) of the Asperger syndrome (also known as the Asperger's syndrome or Asperger's disorder). For this purpose the author has identified the theoretical assumptions on the basis of which she addresses the impacts of the identification of a diagnosis on the persons' mental state, emphasising the specifics of this process for the diagnosis of the Asperger syndrome. The author then uses these assumptions for performing a qualitative analysis of the testimonies of some people in whom the Asperger syndrome was diagnosed after the age of 30. The respondents talk about their lives prior to learning of their Asperger syndrome, about the influence that this new information has had on them, about the way in which they made the decision to undergo diagnostics, and of what they were afraid and in what they hoped. The conclusion of the thesis summarises the areas with which the identification of an Asperger syndrome diagnosis interferes. KEY WORDS Asperger syndrome diagnostics adulthood psychological aspects
