摘要

自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)是一种神经发育障碍,其特点是三岁前发育迟缓或缺陷,以及在社会沟通和互动方面存在行为障碍。评估利比亚普通人群对 ASD 的了解和认识,以及 ASD 的信息来源,并探讨可能与了解和认识相关的因素。这项横断面研究于 2022 年 3 月 22 日至 8 月 13 日期间进行,采用的是自填式问卷。研究对象包括来自利比亚不同地区(东部、南部、中部和西部)家庭的 2350 名 18 岁及以上的个人。在 2195 名参与者中,女性占 48.9%,男性占 51.1%。四分之三的参与者(74.8%)对自闭症病因的了解程度较低。在通过社交媒体了解自闭症的参与者中,78.9%的人对自闭症的了解程度较低。不过,57.9% 的参与者对自闭症症状和体征的了解程度较高。参与者对自闭症的成因和特征了解有限。提高社区对自闭症成因和特征的认识是当务之急。

Knowledge and awareness of autism spectrum disorder among Libyans.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by the presence of delayed or defective development before the age of three years, as well as behavioral difficulties in social communication and interaction. To evaluate ASD knowledge and awareness, as well as ASD information sources in a sample of the Libyan general population, and to explore factors that could be associated with the knowledge and awareness. A cross-sectional study was carried out between 22 March and 13 August, 2022 using a self-administered questionnaire. The study included 2350 individual aged 18 and up from households living in different regions in Libya (eastern, southern, central, and western). Out of 2195 participants, 48.9% were females and 51.1% were males. Three-quarters of the participants (74.8%) presented a low level of knowledge about autism causes. Of those whose source of knowledge of autism was social media, 78.9% had a low level of knowledge. However, 57.9% of the participants showed a good level of awareness of autism symptoms and signs. The participants had a limited understanding of the causes and characteristics of ASD. Raising community awareness of the causes and characteristics of ASD is a priority.
