Abstract

CANDIDO, Ana Regina Lucato Sigolo  and  CIA, Fabiana. Early Intervention Programs: what to reveal dissertations and thesis. Educ. Teoria Prática [online]. 2016, vol.26, n.52, pp.332-348. ISSN 1981-8106.  https://doi.org/10.18675/1981-8106.vol26.n52.p332-348.

The main objectives of this paper were to identify dissertations and thesis elaborated in Graduate Programs that approach the Early Intervention and to identify empirical data in the research that assess the relationship between early intervention programs and families. Early intervention, early stimulation, essential stimulation, infant stimulation, stimulation of child development, early intervention and monitoring of development were used as descriptors. The assessments had been analysed through an evaluation form in which counted the author, institution of origin, level of titles, main theme, type of research, participants, procedures for data collection, data analysis, theoretical basis, theoretical source, results and conclusions. Seventy-eight papers were analyzed and they have shown that identification of eligible children for early stimulation is still focused on infant characteristics. The assessments have focused on child development without considering the contextual factors that influence as well.

Keywords : Early Intervention; Early Stimulation; Family.
