Résumé

Contexte La théorie des construits personnels (TCP) est une approche constructiviste visant à comprendre la pensée et l'action humaines. Des recherches préliminaires portant sur l'application des concepts et des méthodologies de la TCP à la compréhension des personnes présentant un autisme de haut niveau (AHN) ont suggéré son utilité tant pour la recherche que pour les interventions cliniques. La période développementale de l'adolescence a également été décrite selon la TCP. Cependant, la TCP n'a pas été appliquée au sous-groupe plus spécifique des adolescents présentant un AHN, malgré divers principes théoriques suggérant son utilité. Conclusions Afin de combler cette lacune dans la recherche, nous avons examiné les tâches développementales suivantes de l'adolescence en nous référant particulièrement aux adolescents présentant un AHN : (a) fonctionner dans le monde de plus en plus complexe de l'âge adulte, (b) le développement de l'identité et (c) le développement de styles de traitement de niveau supérieur (y compris la pensée abstraite et le traitement flexible). Ces questions ont été décrites à l'aide des concepts de la TCP. Enfin, nous avons envisagé des moyens de soutenir les personnes et les familles vivant avec des adolescents présentant un AHN.

Background Personal construct theory (PCT) is a constructivist approach to understanding human thought and action. Preliminary research focusing on applying PCT concepts and methodologies to understanding individuals with high-functioning autism (HFA) has suggested its utility for both research and clinical interventions. The developmental period of adolescence has also been outlined according to PCT. However, PCT has not been applied to the more specific subgroup of adolescents with HFA, despite various theoretical tenets suggesting its utility.Conclusions In addressing this research gap, we considered the following adolescent developmental tasks with particular reference to adolescents with HFA: (a) functioning within the increasingly complex world of adulthood, (b) identity development, and (c) development of higher order processing styles (including abstract thinking and flexible processing). These issues were described using PCT concepts. Finally, we considered ways to support individuals and families living with adolescents with HFA.
