Perceptive-Cognitive Evolution in Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder from Inter-Conceptual-Nodes Learning
Downloads
People with ASD present deficits to perceptual-cognitive neural relationships, which affect into perceptive- cognitive generalization processes, creativity, imagination, symbology, induction-deduction and conceptual-categorical understanding. However, DSM-5 classification basic diagnostic process just focus on behavioral symptoms criterial. For this reason, this research try answer following general aims: 1) verify Semantic Integration Scale (SIS) effectiveness to semantic perceptual-cognitive items measurement, 2) analyze hypothetical improvement along concepts and conceptual-categories understanding through relational link-nodes construction.
Results were found by multivariate comparative test of repeated measures and estimate- comparative post-hoc analysis. Pillai's Trace multivariate comparative specific test of repeated measures to Group* Program interaction indicates a significant critical level (Sig= .00), which allows conclude there´re significant differences between study groups (3), in which experimental group students that neural link-nodes learning get substantial improvement relating control groups (Sig= .00, Adjusted R squared= .316).
