Introduction: The study presents how adults with ASD experience play, how they understand it and the meaning they assign to it. Method: Four people with a diagnosis of autism (aged 20‒35) participated in individual semi-structured interviews. The collected material was analysed thematically. Results: Five main themes were identified: the difficulty of defining play, the difficulty of experiencing play, the variety of forms of experiencing play, the variety of emotions of experiencing play: the role of the group, play and age. The results show that the play of adults with autism can take different forms and perform different functions. Emotions associated with play are an individual issue and remain related to the physical and social context of play. Conclusions: The study highlights the need for further research related to the functioning of adults on the autism spectrum and exploring the possibilities of play with its applications in therapy.

Wprowadzenie: Badanie umożliwia zobaczenie, jak dorosłe osoby z ASD doświadczają zabawy, jak ją rozumieją i jakie przypisują jej znaczenie. Metoda: W indywidualnych częściowo ustrukturyzowanych wywiadach wzięły udział cztery osoby z diagnozą autyzmu, w przedziale wiekowym 20‒35 lat. Zgromadzony materiał poddano analizie tematycznej. Wyniki: Wyodrębniono pięć głównych tematów: trudność ze zdefiniowaniem zabawy; trudność z doświadczaniem zabawy; różnorodność form doświadczania zabawy; różnorodność emocji doświadczenia zabawy: rola grupy; zabawa a wiek. Wyniki pokazują, że zabawa osób dorosłych z autyzmem może przybierać różne formy i pełnić odmienne funkcje. Emocje towarzyszące zabawie są kwestią indywidualną oraz pozostają w związku z fizycznym i społecznym kontekstem zabawy. Wnioski: Badanie wskazuje na potrzebę prowadzenia dalszych badań związanych z funkcjonowaniem dorosłych w spektrum autyzmu oraz odkrywaniu możliwości zabawy wraz z jej zastosowaniami w terapii.

The article presents a qualitative study on the experience of the COVID-19 pandemic among people aged 60+, carried out in its initial stage, in Poland. Three individual, semi-structured interviews were conducted in May 2020, in order to explore how the pandemic is perceived in a cognitive, emotional and social context, and how it refers to study participants’ past experiences. Purposive sampling was used, taking into account criteria of the specific situation of people aged 60+: belonging to the group at increased risk of serious consequences of the disease and being subject to special preventive interventions. Based on the thematic analysis of the data corpus, six issues were identified: information about the coronavirus, changes in the current life, emotional and cognitive attitudes, references to the past, coping strategies and predictions. There was a large variation observed in the way of thinking about the reported events, experienced emotions and visions of the future. The pandemic phenomenon was presented on many levels, being evaluated as a difficult but perhaps valuable experience.
