Abstract: 
     Diagnostic processes of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) just based over the observation of target- behaviors, regarding to interaction and social communication (social) and restrictive behavior (behavior), seem be most effective for level 2-3 ASD specific diagnosis; however, level 1 ASD diagnosis may be many errors, since the scores sum are within limits corresponding the other specific personality or social communication disorders (American Psychiatric Association (APA), 2013). For this reason, it´s needs complement the analysis of variables that make up the perceptual- cognitive dimension of information processing to specify the diagnosis validity and avoid initial errors that can create important prejudices along educational processes. This study delimits the differential analysis of 3 dimensions on total of 38 participants with level 1 ASD. Indeed, results indicate that, although the constant of diagnostic predictive analysis found through the linear regression analysis shows significant data for diagnosis synthesis, it´s owing to critical influence of cognitive processing dimension: .00, while other 2 dimensions analyzed individually show non-significant influence, being critical significant level for social dimension: .12 and behavior dimension: .35. Therefore, it´s need design diagnostic scales that include the basic principles of perceptual-cognitive processing functioning to avoid errors in autism diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Basic characteristic of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are the particularities of information processing owing to limitations over development of neural nodes between informational stimulus, while objectifiablebehaviors are resultant observable secondary consequences that people with ASD can present in greater or lesser rank and even not present it. For this reason, it´s necessary adjust the diagnostic scales to psychological principles of perceptual-cognitive processing for reduce diagnostic errors possibles of behavior test, especially when it corresponding to level-1 ASD. This research aims determine the specific level of ASD according the integrated principles, both behavior and belonging to cognitive processing. A total of 124 kids with ASD have participated. Analysis was found relating 6 dimensions, which are made up by 24 variables, relating to ASD level variable. Data found through the lineal regression analysis show that interactional and perceptual-cognitive dimensions are greatly predicitvefor the specific ASD level diagnosis. In synthesis, psychometric statistics summative means conclusive with the diagnosis to ASD level in percentiles are following: 5.77-7.88 belong to ASD level-1, between 7.88-9.01 to ASD level-2 and a score ≥ 9.02 would correspond to ASD level 3.

ABSTRACT

This article analyzes the relationship between symptomatic groups that make up the diagnosis of people with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and the motor structure themselves to design a global intervention program facilitating integrated psychosocial development.

A total of 28 participants with ASD participated in this experimental study. Correlation analysis observed to three variables- dimensions: diagnostic, cognition and psychomotor variables show significant data regarding interactions between to three dimensions statistically calculated. So variables of diagnostic dimension correlate with cognitive variables (r= .896) and with psychomotor dimension (r= 682). Likewise, cognitive dimension correlate significantly with motor dimension (r= .766). Finally, it´s designed an integral systemic psychoeducational program to facilitate global development of people with ASD.

KEYWORDS

Psychomotor skills, cognitive- perceptive, social communication, autism spectrum disorder.
