          Abstract

          Instrumentos padronizados de avaliação da linguagem permitem detecção precoce de atraso de linguagem e intervenção precoce para prevenir fracasso escolar. Este estudo comparou o desempenho de pré-escolares nas versões tradicional e computadorizada do Teste de Vocabulário por Imagens Peabody, correlacionou as pontuações nessas versões e descreveu a evolução do vocabulário receptivo em função de idade e série escolar. Noventa crianças de 4 a 6 anos de idade do ensino infantil de uma escola particular da cidade de São Paulo foram avaliadas nas duas versões. Anovas Unifatoriais revelaram crescimento significativo da pontuação nas duas versões como função da idade. Houve também correlação positiva significativa entre as versões. Tais resultados sugerem a validade da versão computadorizada do Teste de Vocabulário por Imagens Peabody para detecção precoce de dificuldades de aprendizagem resultantes de vocabulário receptivo pobre.

          Standardized language tests permit early detection of language delay, and early intervention aimed at preventing school failure. The present study compared preschooler’s performance under two Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test versions (traditional versuscomputerized ones). It assessed the correlation between them and described the evolution of receptive vocabulary as function of age and preschool level. Ninety preschoolers from 4 to 6 years of age of a private São Paulo city school were subjected to the two test versions. Unifatorial ANOVAs revealed significant increase of test scores as a function of age for both versions. In addition, a significant positive correlation was found between scores from both versions. Such results suggests that the computerized Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test may be valid for early detection of learning problems related to poor receptive vocabulary.

            Cognitive performance in Rett syndrome girls: a pilot study using eyetracking technology.

            Rett syndrome (RS) is a pervasive developmental disorder with cognitive and neuromotor impairments (including loss of handiness and loss of communicative skills). To verify whether girls with RS use their gaze intentionally, by observing their performance in three cognitive tasks: (1) verbal instruction condition (look at picture X), (2) recognition and matching of pictures (look at the one that is the same), and (3) categorization of pictures (look at the one that is similar). Seven girls diagnosed with RS according to DSM-IV criteria were studied. Eyegaze technology was used to record the girls' eye movements' responses to visual stimulation. The comparison of fixation time on the alternatives revealed a higher percentage (62.4%) of correct alternatives (chi(2) = 76.31; P = 0.000). Of the seven children assessed, only one did not present predominance of fixations on the correct alternatives in any one of the tasks. One did well in all tasks. Six responded correctly to all verbal instructions. The rate of correct answers suggests that there is measurable and intentional gaze in RS girls and it can be used as a path to explore their cognitive performance.
