Pia Hämäläinen Reihenfolge der Bücher

In her essay, Considerations on Autism Coaching, Pia Hämäläinen, an autistic theorist, presents a presumably autism-friendly approach to autism coaching. Hämäläinen uses both her experiences of receiving coaching as well as diverse theories to shed light on the process of autism coaching. The purpose of the mind map Hämäläinen came up with to organize her thinking on the subject is to offer ways to manage autistic processes with diverse structures, or schemas, in more autism-friendly ways.

In her essay, 'The Cockpit Analogy for the Neurodiversity Spectrum', Pia Hämäläinen, an autistic theorist, presents the cockpit analogy for neurodiversity, not just for autism. According to this analogy, the features of neurodiversity can be seen as the systems of measure of the control panel of an aircraft cockpit controlling various phenomena ranging from cognitive styles to types of intelligence and linguistic abilities. The features need to be individually configured for each person on the neurodiversity spectrum - where all people naturally belong.

In her book An Autism Upgrade. On Patterns and Processes Pia Hämäläinen (b. 1966; BA), an autistic theorist, discusses the process view of reality as fundamental for autism. She elaborates on Simon Baron-Cohen's theory of autistic persons as natural pattern seekers discussing the roles of data-centricity, entropy and complexity theory - the science of pattern formation. Hämäläinen generalizes the process of writing to encompass the constant re-constructing of the self and reality, and proposes various ways for managing process-based patterns.
