INTEGRAL DIAGNOSTIF OF PEOPLE WITH AUTISM

Perceptual-Cognitive-Behavioural Precision Scale for Diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder. In European Modern studes Jounal, 10(2) ,213-242.



PhD Manuel Ojea Rúa,2026.




Abstract

Regarding the variables of age and gender can be seen in Table 1, which corresponds to 254 (>: "males” and 92 “females”. The Cronbach's alpha reliability analysis is significantly high (=.91), which can be inferred to indicate a high degree of statistical reliability in the study (Ojea, 2026). Finally, the fundamental data that shaped the ASD diagnostic process are indicated, as the direct scores from the observation dimensions (DS) are transformed into their corresponding typical values to continue the rest of the study (ZS), which finally located each Z-score for each participant within the corresponding percentile (P), concluding the ASD diagnostic process.

Key words:
Autism Spectrum Disorder; Diagnosis; Cognition, Perception and Behavioural analysis.

Comparative analysis of diagnosis and behaviour by gender (men and women) in people with Autism Spectrum Disorder

ABSTRACT: People with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) constitute a specific group, characterized by neurobiological developmental alterations in systemic development at the level of psycho- cerebral information processing, which affects men at a higher prevalence of 3–4 men for every woman, although little research has been conducted into the causes of this difference. This study aims to analyze, where applicable, whether there are possible differences in the gender variable (men and women) in relation to the etiological basis and subsequent behavior or profile. To this end, a total of 116 participants with ASD took part, comprising 87 men and 29 women, who agreed to answer the questions posed in a questionnaire-interview. As can be seen from the results, it can be concluded that, in relation to the determining statistic of the KMO and Bartlett’s Test factor analysis, the group of men presents a greater explanatory load with regard to the genetic burden associated with the 15q11-q13 chromosomal region (sig: .02); whilst the ‘diseaseway’ variable shows a greater explanatory load in the women’s group in the coefficients of the linear regression analysis, with a significance level of 0.02 in the determinant statistics. However, in no case can significant general differences in the diagnostic process be corroborated between the codes; yet, the coping component in relation to the genetic burden and/or early-onset diseases is clearly differential in the codes of the “gender” variable, which may lead to confusion with current analyses of the diagnostic process. 


KEYWORDS: Autism Spectrum Disorder, differences in diagnosis between men and women with ASD, behavioral differences related to ‘gender’, genetics and autism, early-life illnesses and autism, environmental and organic factors within the family.

TEST DE DIAGNÓSTICO DEL AUTISMO

 

ESCALA DE DIAGNÓSTICO DEL AUTISMO (VERSIÓN INGLÉS)


BP INTERNATIONAL: India and United Kigndom, February, 2026.

Currently, diagnostic assessment tools for individuals with ASD, even those that have been empirically validated, are based on the analysis of social and behavioural criteria. However, scientific research in the area of ASD has progressed significantly in developing hypotheses about perceptual-cognitive functioning, which involves highly specific psycho-neurological information processing. These factors, which are so important for understanding how people with ASD interact with the world, are not sufficiently operationalised for the assessment of the disorder in current assessment scales and tests, which can give rise to significant errors in the ASD diagnostic process. For this reason, a Perceptual-Cognitive-Behavioural Integration Scale (PS-PC-ASD-R) was developed for the diagnostic assessment of individuals with ASD.  It systematically integrates social and behavioural variables with factors that form part of the particular mode of perceptual-cognitive processing of individuals with ASD from the initial reception of the stimulus, source memory, the creation of neural relationships or nodes to encoding information by working memory, access to information in semantic and episodic memory, and the processes of retrieving encoded content according to the exigencies of the context. The PS-PC-ASD-R has been empirically validated through various specific quantitative experimental analyses throughout the study. The sample comprised a total of 346 participants, with and without an ASD diagnosis, corresponding to the three levels of intensity (APA, 2013), with a highly reliable level found in the Cronbach’s alpha reliability analysis, which is significantly high (a = .91), which can be inferred to indicate a high degree of statistical reliability in the study. The fundamental data that shaped the ASD diagnostic process are indicated, as the direct scores from the observation dimensions (DS) are transformed into their corresponding typical-score to continue the rest of the study (ZS), which finally located each ZS for each participant within the corresponding percentile (P), concluding the ASD diagnostic process.
Finally, located each ZS total for each participant within the corresponding percentile (P), concluding the ASD’ diagnostic process, concluding, mild ASD (level 1) ranges between the 50th-55th and 65th percentiles, which increases significantly to moderate intensity (level 2) between the 70th and 80th percentiles, and finally, the equivalent score for severe ASD ranges between the 85th and 100th percentiles.
