広汎性発達障害や注意欠如多動性障害などの発達障害圏の患者では,その障害特性から飛行機という慣れない環境(空間・音・気圧・揺れなど)で適切に振舞うことが困難となる可能性がある。そこで今回我々は,航空会社と共同して発達障害圏の患者が飛行機に乗るために必要なスキルを学ぶことができる模擬搭乗体験プログラムを開発したので,その概要と試験的に実施した結果を示し,考察を加えて報告した。
Patients with developmental disorders, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), sometimes have difficulty travelling on airplanes because of their impaired social interaction and communication, sensory sensitivity, inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. We developed a training program to provide patients with developmental disorders with the necessary skills to travel safely by airplane. A pilot study was conducted with five patients (8-10 years old) with developmental disorders (four with ASD and one with ADHD) and their caregivers. We found that all patients and their caregivers acquired positive dispositions towards airplanes, and the training provided the skills to travel by air with confidence. We think that our program is useful. Moreover, the establishment of a support system for patients with developmental disorders who wish to travel by air is needed.
