Abstract(s)
Após uma reflexão sobre os modelos conceptuais subjacentes aos programas de intervenção precoce,
faz-se uma revisão de vários tipos de estudos de
avaliação da sua eficácia.
Reflectindo sobre o que se passa em Portugal no
campo da intervenção precoce, nomeadamente
ausência de legislação nesta matéria, formulamos
algumas questões de investigação no campo da avaliação
de programas de intervenção precoce. Salientamos
ainda a importância de avaliar o grau de satisfação
dos pais, as suas percepções sobre os serviços
que estão a receber, comparando posteriormente as
suas respostas com a opinião dos profissionais sobre as
práticas necessárias para um programa de intervenção
precoce de qualidade.
After a brief historical analysis of the theoretical models underlying early intervention programmes, we made a review of the types studies that have been made to evaluate their efficacy in what concerns children and families. We express our concern regarding the lack of legislation on early intervention in our country and we refer with some detail the two unique early intervention evaluation studies that have been published in Portugal. We point out some of the research questions that need urgently to be answered in order to evaluate the concepts and practices of early intervention projects that have been recently implemented in Portugal. We also enhance the importance of evaluating parental satisfaction, parental perceptions on the services that are actually being provided by the programmes, and compare these measures with the professionals view of the types of service activities that are necessary for an effective early intervention program.
