Previous issue date: 2012-09-28 / In the last decades, studies on early intervention involving children with autism
have suggested that there is no single intervention model capable of addressing the
needs of all individuals in the spectrum. The role of parents as active intervention
agents is, however, highly recommended. The More Than Words-HANEN Program
has been specifically created for parents of children, under five years of age, who are
in the autism spectrum. This intervention aims at improving the social competence
and language comprehension of the child, as well as their parents empowerment.
Until now only three studies have been performed in order to evaluate the
effectiveness of the HMTW program. The purpose of this investigation is to evaluate
the effects of an early intervention program inspired on HMTW model on the level of
caregiver responsiveness and child communication skills. The present study adds to
the existing research literature on family-centered early intervention that uses a
developmental paradigm. A two year boy in risk for autism, his mother and nanny
took part in this investigation, which was carried out in the child?s home in Mossor?,
Rio Grande do Norte. The caretakers were given one fifty-two hours of training,
divided into thirteen weekly meetings. A quasi-experimental A-B-C design (baselineintervention-
follow-up) showed improvement in the caretakers level of
responsiveness and meaningful social-communicative gains in the child?s response / Nas ?ltimas d?cadas, estudos em interven??o precoce realizados com
crian?as com risco de autismo concluem n?o haver uma abordagem ?nica que
possa ser aplicada a todas as crian?as com essa s?ndrome. Recomenda-se, no
entanto, que os pais sejam envolvidos como agentes ativos nas interven??es de
tratamento. O More Than Words-HANEN (HMTW) ? um programa de capacita??o
criado especificamente para pais de crian?as menores de cinco anos de idade, as
quais apresentam caracter?sticas de Transtornos do Espectro do Autismo TEA. A
interven??o tem como objetivo a melhoria da compet?ncia social e da compreens?o
da linguagem da crian?a, bem como a responsividade das cuidadoras. At? a
atualidade, foram produzidos apenas tr?s estudos com o objetivo de avaliar a
efic?cia da capacita??o HMTW. A presente pesquisa visa ampliar o campo de
investiga??o em interven??o precoce focada na fam?lia sob a abordagem
desenvolvimentista, avaliando os efeitos da implementa??o de um programa de
interven??o precoce, inspirado na capacita??o do modelo HMTW. Participaram do
estudo um menino de dois anos, com risco de autismo, sua m?e e sua bab?. A
pesquisa, conduzida na resid?ncia da crian?a, localizada na cidade de Mossor?/RN,
utilizou delineamento quase experimental do tipo A-B-C (linha de base, tratamento e
acompanhamento). As cuidadoras participaram de cinquenta duas horas de
capacita??o, distribu?das em treze encontros semanais. Os resultados do estudo
evidenciaram ganhos nos n?veis de responsividade das cuidadoras durante a
intera??o social com o menino, e indicaram aumento na frequ?ncia de turnos
comunicativos
