Abstract(s)
Este estudo pretendeu analisar o processo de avaliação dos alunos com
Perturbações do Espectro do Autismo em Unidades de Ensino Estruturado, propondo
um instrumento de avaliação. Encontra-se dividido em dois estudos empíricos: no
primeiro verificou-se as conceções e práticas de avaliação na perspetiva dos técnicos de
uma equipa multidisciplinar, e no segundo analisou-se diversos instrumentos de
avaliação e apresentou-se um instrumento de avaliação para alunos com Perturbações
do Espectro do Autismo.
O grupo de estudo compreende os principais intervenientes de uma Unidade de
Ensino Estruturado do 1º ciclo, correspondendo aos técnicos da equipa multidisciplinar
e aos alunos que a frequentam.
Realizou-se uma análise documental aos processos dos alunos, efetuaram-se
entrevistas a todos os técnicos, e recorreu-se à observação direta dos alunos para
preenchimento dos instrumentos de avaliação seleccionados: Childhood Autism Rating
Scale, Perfil Psicoeducacional Revisado, Escala de Avaliação de Traços Autísticos e
Escala de Comportamento Adaptativo - Versão Portuguesa.
Os resultados indicaram que as conceções e práticas de avaliação dos técnicos
encontram-se, na sua maioria, em conformidade com a literatura da especialidade.
Dos quatro instrumentos de avaliação, verificou-se que a Childhood Autism
Rating Scale e Escala de Avaliação de Traços Autísticos são de breve aplicação e rápido
preenchimento e que o Perfil Psicoeducacional Revisado e a Escala de Comportamento
Adaptativo são extensos e longos. Constatou-se que todos os instrumentos são viáveis
para população em estudo, mas que alguns itens não estão adequados a alunos com
Perturbações do Espectro do Autismo do 1º ciclo. Verificou-se que os domínios comuns
a todos os intrumentos consistem na interação social, na comunicação e linguagem e
nos movimentos estereotipados e repetitivos.
Considerando todas as informações obtidas ao longo desta investigação,
elaborou-se uma proposta de um instrumento de avaliação, constituído por treze
domínios
The goal of this study was to analyze the process of evaluation of students with Autism Spectrum Disorders in Structured Teaching Units, proposing an evaluation instrument. It is divided into two empirical studies: in the first the conceptions and practices of evaluation from the perspective of the technicians of a multidisciplinary team were verified and in the second the different evaluation instruments were analyzed and an evaluation instrument for students with Autism Spectrum Disorders was suggested. The study group was constituted by the main participants of a Structured Teaching Unit of the 1st cycle, corresponding to the technicians of a multidisciplinary team and the pupils who attended it. It was held a documentary analysis of the files of the pupils, all technicians were interviewed and we decided to make a direct observation of the pupils to complete the selected evaluation instruments: Childhood Autism Rating Scale, Psychoeducational Profile Revised, Scale of Autistic Traits and Adaptive Behaviour Scale – Portuguese Version. The results showed that the conceptions and technical evaluation practices are mostly in accordance with the literature of the speciality. Of the four instruments of evaluation, we verified that the Childhood Autism Rating Scale and the Scale of Autistic Traits are of brief application of and quick filling; and that the Psychoeducational Profile Revised and the Adaptive Behaviour Scale are extensive and long. We noticed that all instruments are viable for the population of the study, but that some items are not suitable for pupils with Autism Spectrum Disorders of the 1st cycle. It was concluded that the areas common to all instruments consist of social interaction, communication and language and stereotyped and repetitive movements. Considering all the information obtained during this investigation, a proposition for an evaluation instrument, consisting of thirteen domains was made.
