QUINTAS, Ricardo Henrique Rossetti; CARVALHO, Ariane Cristina Ramello de  e  QUEDAS, Carolina Lourenço Reis. Comparison of the adapted motor assessment protocol using the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC-2) scale in ASD. Cad. Pós-Grad. Distúrb. Desenvolv. [online]. 2018, vol.18, n.1, pp. 66-82. ISSN 1519-0307.  http://dx.doi.org/10.5935/cadernosdisturbios.v18n1p66-82.

The difficulty of comprehension in children with ASD in relation to the instructions provided in the various evaluation instruments makes it difficult to collect information that is important for a diagnosis and can impact the standardized scale scores. The objective of this study was to verify if there is difference between two evaluation protocols of the MABC-2 scale in the performance of children with ASD. Eighteen children was assessed with ASD in relation to their motor skills using the Movement Assessment Battery for Children (MABC-2) scale using two different protocols. The first, traditional protocol (P-TR) used the description provided in its manual using verbal commands and demonstration to describe the activities. After fifteen days, they were reevaluated using the protocol with image cards support (P-CI) as a resource for description of activities by decreasing verbal commands. The results show that individuals with ASD benefited from the P-CI protocol when compared to the P-TR protocol in all skills assessed (hand skill Z = -154, skills with ball Z = -1.885, balance Z = -1.074, performance global Z = -2.206). Visual supports may be introduced into the MABC-2 protocol when used in individuals with ASD, considering the benefits of such supports in assessments and educational practice.
