PRESENTACIÓN DEL TEST PARA LA EVALUACIÓN DE PERSONAS CON TRASTORNOS DEL ESPECTRO AUTISTA EP-PC-TEA
XVIII CONGRESSO INTERNACIONAL GALEGO- PORTUGUÊS DE PSICOPEDAGOGIA
PRESENTACIÓN DEL TEST PARA LA EVALUACIÓN DE PERSONAS CON TRASTORNOS DEL ESPECTRO AUTISTA EP-PC-TEA
La presentación tedrá lugar el día 3 de setiembre de 2025, a las 19 horas, en la Universidade do Minho (Braga- Portugal).
SINOPSIS:
La Escala de Precisión Diagnóstica Perceptivo- Cognitiva- Conductual del Trastorno del Espectro Autista permite complementar el análisis del diagnóstico del autismo, a través de la medida de las variables que conforman el procesamiento neuropsicológico de la información humano, con el fin de evitar los elevados errores del diagnóstico del TEA existentes en la actualidad, derivados de análisis unilateral del componente criterial conductual de las actuales Escalas tradicionales. La baremación empírica de la Escala, realizada para N= 75, ha permitido obtener una fiabilidad estadística del Alpha de Cronbach medio superior al.91 en las diez dimensiones que conforman la Escala: 1) comprensión, 2) significantes, 3) categorías conceptuales, 4) relaciones- nodos neurales, 5) relaciones intercategoriales, 6) recuperación semántica, 7) interacción social, 8) comunicación social, 9) comportamientos estereotipados, y 10) comportamientos restrictivos. El cálculo estadístico de las diez dimensiones se ha agrupado en torno a tres grandes categorías del análisis: 1) procesamiento perceptivocognitivo, 2) interacción social, y 3) comportamiento. Los análisis concluyentes indican que la categoría del procesamiento explica el 88.52 de la varianza total explicativa acumulada, mientras que la categoría social el 10.19% y el comportamiento el restante 1.28, lo cual demuestra la importancia del análisis del factor dimensional perceptivo- cognitivo para poder establecer con seguridad los percentiles medios que permiten realizar una conclusión diagnóstica relativa a cada nivel de TEA, de acuerdo con los niveles elaborados por la clasificación internacional de la Asociación Americana de Psiquiatría DSM-5 (APA, 2013).

THE BENEFITS OF COOPERATIVE TEACHING APPLIED THROUGH PROJECTS TO IMPROVE LEARNING FOR STUDENTS WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
The Benefits of Cooperative Teaching Applied Through Projects to Improve Learning for Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder
Abstract:
People with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are characterised by severe limitations in nodal connectivity of information, which can involve some or several levels of the neuropsychological information processing system to various degrees. For this reason, in besides treating behaviours formally expressed by international classifications, it´s necessary to apply programmes to facilitate functional connectivity and fluidity over knowledge processing, in this sense, the cooperative project-based method can help neural networks interact and support the perception and subsequent processing of information.
A total of 10 participants took part in this study, divided into two groups of 5 students each. One of the groups included a student with level 1 ASD (n: 5). All students belong to the same class and are studying all subjects corresponding to first grade of secondary education. Results confirmed the hypothesis that project-based work in small cooperative groups is effective, with all students showing improvement compared to the other two didactic methods implemented: practical and expository. Moreover, it was also observed that the group in which the student with ASD participates has not impaired the knowledge process, but, on the contrary, provides benefits that exceed the second group of exclusively neurotypical students (n: 5) in the statistics applied.
Keywords:

ABSTRACT
Conceptually, autism spectrum disorder is shaped a disability linked to neurodevelopmental developmental disorders, regarding to the information transmission through the functional system of gamma-aminobutyric acid or GABAergic system, which is observed throughout deficits in the communication area, social interaction and restrictive behaviours, as defined by the International Classification of Diseases (DSM-5) of the American Psychiatric Association (2013) (APA). This study analyzed the implementation of greater or lesser intensity in applying regarding four teaching-learning models will be able encourage the overall development of this diagnostic group. Results showed that educational models based on projects, through the higher intensity of cooperative learning among peers, combined with a partial support process, increased the cognitive and curricular development of this population, which, in fact, was observed in the critical levels of significance tested through Kruskal-Wallis Test analysis.
KEY WORDS:

BEHAVIOURAL IMPROVEMENT OF PEOPLE WITH AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDER
Behavioural Improvement of People with Autism Spectrum Disorder

People with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) are defined by the International Classification of Mental Disorders. The basic aim of this study is to prove whether an integrated psycho-pedagogical program, structured in accordance with the psychosocial and educational mediation model, would lead to greater behavioural and educational action training in people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). The program has basically focused on psycho-cyto-cognitive mediation criteria, based on the progressive creation of neural networks and connections between information and acquired behaviours according to the particular needs of people with ASD selected according to the basic competencies initially assessed. An experimental research design on three measures has been based, on one pre-test (I), and two post-tests (II-III) was realized. A total of 14 children with ASD participated in the intervention program specific ad hoc applied for two years. Results found through comparative analysis Friedman Test and Multivariate Tests Within- Subjects Effects, showed that the intensive intervention improved children´s behaviour and their functional adaptation to the context and, in conclusion, social life and inclusion improved. More experiments and larger data sets will be needed however the indications are there that a collective learning environment needs to be created, therefore this is a very timely paper. This can be tested further. In conclusion, the integrated program can be considered an effective intervention to promote the development of social skills.
