Previous issue date: 2003-08-19 / This academic work is characterized as a documental research, which aimed at mapping the evaluation instruments on autism, used in the diagnosis of this disorder and identify the purposes for their use. 64 articles referring to the topic have been selected in the data base PsycINFO, of the American Psychological Association (APA), from 1997 to 2001, which generated files with the data of the articles, samples and research characterization. The instruments found (N=31) have been analyzed in an isolated way or grouped by principles of construction. The results pointed out that Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), Autistic Diagnostic Interview (ADI-R) and Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) scales are the ones mostly used in the studies. The purposes of use were predominant over the improvement of the diagnosis in autism and the scales validation; the use rate of the instruments in interventions was low. Only the instruments Checklist of Autism in Toddlers (CHAT), Screening Tool for Autism in Two-Year-Olds (STAT), ?valuation des Comportaments Autistiques du Nourrisson (ECA-N) and Imitation Disorders Evaluation Scale (IDE-S) showed to be specific for the evaluation of children who are below 4 years of age; the others propose a wider age gap. The preponderant number of male subjects over female subjects has been confirmed. The age amplitude contained in these samples, as well as the diversity of other clinical disorders suggested some discussion about the stability of autistic traces and the necessity of improvement in the characterization of the disorder. The results determinate the need for more researches to be carried out in this area, especially in Brazil, in order to qualify the evaluative process, linking it to the intervention procedure, since this is the only way for the autistic individual to have all his/her educational and social needs met. / Este trabalho caracteriza-se como uma pesquisa documental bibliogr?fica cujo objetivo foi mapear instrumentos de avalia??o usados no diagn?stico de autismo e identificar suas finalidades de uso. Na base de dados PsycINFO, da American Psychological Association, foram selecionados 64 artigos referentes ao tema, no per?odo 1997-2001, que geraram fichas com dados de caracteriza??o dos artigos, das amostras e da pesquisa. Os instrumentos encontrados (N=31) foram analisados isoladamente ou agrupados por princ?pio de constru??o. Resultados apontaram a Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS), Autistic Diagnostic Interview Revised (ADI-R) e Autism Behavior Checklist (ABC) como as escalas mais utilizadas. Predominaram finalidades de uso dos instrumentos em pesquisas sobre o aprimoramento do diagn?stico em autismo e valida??o de escalas; o ?ndice de uso em interven??es foi baixo. Apenas os instrumentos Checklist for Autism in Toddlers (CHAT), Screening Tool for Autism in Two-Year-Olds (STAT), ?valuation des Comportaments Autistiques du Nourrisson (ECA-N) e Imitation Disorders Evaluation Scale (IDE-S) foram apontados como espec?ficos para avalia??o de crian?as com idade inferior a 4 anos; as outras prop?em maior abrang?ncia em rela??o ? idade. Houve confirma??o da preponder?ncia de sujeitos masculinos. A amplitude de idade e a diversidade de outros quadros cl?nicos sugeriram discuss?es sobre a estabilidade de tra?os aut?sticos e necessidade de aprimoramento na caracteriza??o do quadro. Os resultados determinam mais pesquisas na ?rea, sobretudo no Brasil, para qualificar o processo avaliativo, atrelando-o ao procedimento interventivo, pois somente assim o indiv?duo autista poder? ser atendido plenamente, em suas car?ncias educacionais e sociais.
