They may become overly focused on certain objects, rarely make eye contact, and fail to engage in typical babbling with their parents. The latest analysis from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 1 in 68 children has ASD.Įven as infants, children with ASD may seem different, especially when compared to other children their own age. However, boys are significantly more likely to develop ASD than girls. A diagnosis of ASD includes an assessment of intellectual disability and language impairment.ĪSD occurs in every racial and ethnic group, and across all socioeconomic levels. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5, published in 2013) includes Asperger syndrome, childhood disintegrative disorder, and pervasive developmental disorders not otherwise specified (PDD-NOS) as part of ASD rather than as separate disorders.
Some children and adults with ASD are fully able to perform all activities of daily living while others require substantial support to perform basic activities.
The term “spectrum” refers to the wide range of symptoms, skills, and levels of disability in functioning that can occur in people with ASD. The symptoms are present from early childhood and affect daily functioning. This study examines how the importance of simulator instructor is on the rise and present tools available for the qualification of the simulator instructors need to be augmented with new measures so as to ensure the quality of the simulator based training of the seafarers.Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) refers to a group of complex neurodevelopment disorders characterized by repetitive and characteristic patterns of behavior and difficulties with social communication and interaction. Instructor became more and more important and he is actually responsible to connect up the simulator experience with real ship experiences through his visualization and does not let the trainee get into a discourse or fall into a game mood. How perfect a simulator may be, it still was far away from real ship experiences. Simulator based training had obvious advantages of being economical, safe and redundant. This concept underwent profound changes in 80s due economic and practical reasons emanating from new face of the marine industry. ABSTRACT: Traditional concept of seafarers? training was based upon theoretical teaching in class room followed by the practical training onboard ship.
