Resource package for Stress and Anxiety Management
Students with autism spectrum disorder often face challenges in interpersonal relationships, adapting to changes in their environment, and integrating into mainstream society due to their cognitive deficits. These negative experiences can cause varying levels of stress and anxiety for students with autism. Additionally, they have weaker abilities in identifying emotions, regulating negative emotions, problem-solving, and sharing their emotions with others, often resulting in inadequate management of their stress and anxiety. Research shows that individuals with autism have a higher incidence of anxiety disorders than the general population. To address this, the Education Bureau has integrated a series of resources for teachers and school guidance personnel to use in group or individual training to help students with autism regulate their emotions and manage stress.
