Sažetak
Experiences of adult siblings of people with autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are unknown in Croatia. Most of the research deals with parenting experience or, more rarely, younger siblings of children with autism spectrum disorders. The aim of this qualitative research is to gain insight into the experiences of growing up with a sibling with ASD. 1. What are the experiences of growing up with a sibling with ASD? 2. What does relationship between siblings look like today? 3. What are the thoughts and plans about the future in relation to the sibling with ASD? Study participants are 6 women that have a brother with the autism spectrum disorder. Semi- structured interview was used for collecting the data. Data will be coded and analyzed using Nvivo software. Results will show experiences of adult sisters and provide insights about growing up nad their relationship with a brother with ASD. They will also give some indications for recommendations for support to both children with ASD and their siblings.
