SUMMARY

Autism spectrum disorder is characterized by the presence of particularities over neural networks of the information flexible transmission, which affects the perceptual-cognitive and socio-behavioural levels of the disorder. This research appoints a longitudinal Single Case Study performed throughout 32 years, structured in five intervals-evolutionary phases (0–4.5; 4.6–9: 9.1–12; 12.1–16.5; 16.6–32 years-old), that confirms the importance of the influence of neural networks variable on criteria that had enclosed to disorder symptomatic group.

The successive differential changes through the five phases of analysis, in relation to the variables “perceptive”, “social” and “behaviour” of the analysis found highly significant, which have been found through the Friedman comparative test; while the “nodes” variable has remained constant, with high evolutive development level. Likewise, it has been shown by Pearson correlation analysis, the variables relationship is significantly related at .1 critical level. The conclusions confirm that variable related to nodal relationships "nodes" decisively influences the evolutionary improvement to other variables investigated, that has been progressively modified the symptomatic group of the disorder to this Case Study.

The fundamental conclusion has been suggested that neuropsychological variables of processing, especially related to the functional ability to relational networks of information processing must be exhaustively gave additionally to the socio-behavioural criteria along the disorder evaluation process to avoid possible initial errors in the diagnostic conclusions.

PRESENTACIÓN DE LA ESCALA DE PRECISIÓN DIAGNÓSTICA DEL TRASTORNO DEL ESPECTRO AUTISTA

PRESENTATION OF THE DIAGNOSTIC ACCURACY SCALE FOR AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER

Ayer, día 17 de enero de 2024, se ha presentado la Escala de Precisión Diagnóstica del Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA), en el el Salón de Grados, de la Facutad de Educación y Trabajo Social, de Ourense, con la participación del Prof. Dr. Ricardo Fandiño, la Prof. Dra. María Dapía y el autor de la Escala, el Prof. Dr. Manuel Ojea.

Quiero expresar mi más sincero agradecimiento a los profesores/as que me han acompañado en la mesa presidnecial, así como a todos los profesores/as, miembros de los departamentos de orientación de toda la provincia y otros profesores/as de los diferentes niveles educativos e integrantes de Gabinetes Psicopedagógicos y Asociaciones Específicas, que habéis llenado la Sala de Grados durante la presentación- formación de la Escala. 

A todos y todas: GRACIAS.

SÍNTESIS 

Las conclusiones básicas hacen referencia a dos principios fundamentales:

1) Una nueva conceptualización del TEA, basada en la Teoría Cíclica Global, que se fundamenta en el proceso de transmisión GABAérgica de la formación, que afecta al conjunto del sistema perceptivo- cognitivo del procesamiento neuropsicológico.

2) El solapamiento hallado durante el proceso de codificación empírica entre los niveles actuales del TEA, especialmente en los nivles 1 y 2, de forma que se requiere una reflexión en profundidad sobre los actuales grados existentes del TEA en las clasificaciones internacionales actuales.

Abstract

The perceptual-Cognitive-Behavioural Diagnostic Precision Scale for Autism Spectrum Disorder allows to complement the analysis of the autism diagnosis through the measurement of variables the neuropsychological processing of human information to avoid high errors over ASD diagnosis currently existing, derived from unilateral analysis of the behaviour criteria component of the actual Scales. The empirical scoring of the Scale has been verified to N= 75, being 38 participants belonging to the TEA-1 level, 24 to TEA-2 and 13 to TEA-3, has allowed find a statistical reliability of Cronbach's Alpha average greater to .91 in the ten dimensions of the Scale:  1) comprehension, 2) significant, 3) categories, 4) intercategorical 5) relationships-neural-nodes, 6) semantic recovery, 7) social interaction, 8) social communication, 9) stereotyped behaviours, and 10) restrictive behaviours. These ten dimensions have been statistically grouped around three great categories to analysis: 1) perceptual-cognitive processing, 2) social interaction, and 3) behaviour. The conclusive statistical analyses indicate that perceptual-cognitive process category explains 88.52% of total accumulated explicative variance, social category: 10.19% and behaviour: 1.28%; which shows the importance of the perceptual-cognitive dimensional factor analysis, in order to conclude with the mean percentiles of the diagnostic conclusion regarding each ASD´ level, according to International Classification of the American Psychiatric Association DSM-5 (APA, 2023).

ABSTRACT

Relationships analysis between perceptual-cognitive factors and behavioural variables it makes up autism spectrum disorder (ASD) differential specific diagnosis, constitute a fundamental recurrent of currently research, then found data allow the construction of integrated evaluation scales to validate more complete and reliable diagnosis of people with ASD.

The interdimensional diagnostic Scale has been applied and coded for 10 dimensions: 1) conceptual units, 2) signifiers, 3) hierarchy, 4) nodal relationships, 5) categorical relationships, 6) Recovery, 7) social interaction, 8) social communication, 9) stereotypical behaviours, and 10) restrictive behaviours.

A total of 75 participants with ASD have participated in this study of three ASD´ intensity levels and different age intervals, from 3 years old.

Data analyses focused along study the factorial analysis determinant (KMO and Bartlett's test) statistic, as well as, bivariate correlations analysis for three dimensions calculated statistically: "processing", "social" and "behaviours", show significant critical inter-relational levels (sig: .00), which allows conclude to existence of highly relationships between both variables group and their practical applications for consequent, reliable and valid diagnosis process.

Finally, the statistical data of your application to perform the level diagnostic analysis is completed, through corresponding statistical percentage, means and standard deviations, to facilitate the ASD level 1-2-3 diagnostic way.
