Resumos
OBJETIVO: Investigar a relação entre a ocorrência de regressão da linguagem e o desenvolvimento sociocomunicativo posterior de crianças pré-escolares com Transtorno do Espectro do Autismo (TEA). MÉTODOS: Participaram do estudo 30 crianças com TEA, divididas em dois grupos: com (n=6) e sem regressão da linguagem (n=24). A regressão da linguagem foi avaliada com base na Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised e o desenvolvimento sociocomunicativo a partir do Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule. RESULTADOS: Das 30 crianças que preencheram os critérios para participação neste estudo, seis (20%) apresentaram regressão das habilidades de linguagem oral, com uma média de idade de 25 meses no início da perda. No que se refere ao desenvolvimento sociocomunicativo, não foram observadas diferenças estatisticamente significativas, entre os grupos com e sem regressão da linguagem. CONCLUSÃO: Os resultados desta pesquisa parecem não confirmar a relação entre a ocorrência de regressão da linguagem e o comprometimento posterior do desenvolvimento sociocomunicativo de crianças com TEA.

PURPOSE: To investigate the relationship between language regression and the subsequent social-communicative development of preschool children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). METHODS: Thirty children with ASD participated in the study and were divided into two groups: with (n= 6) and without (n= 24) language regression. Language regression was assessed by the Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised and the social-communicative development was measured by the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule. RESULTS: Of the 30 children who met the criteria for participation in this study, six (20%) had regression of oral language skills, with a mean age of onset of 25 months. There were no statistical significant differences in the social-communicative development between the groups with and without language regression. CONCLUSION: The findings of this research do not seem to confirm the relationship between the occurrence of language regression and the subsequent impairment on social-communicative development of children with ASD.
