“…15,16 We also showed that use of general developmental screeners, such as the Ages and Stages Questionnaire and the Survey of Well Being in Young Children, miss preschool children who have a delay in ELS. 17 In our sample, parents of 51% of the children who passed the Ages and Stages Questionnaire and 39% of those who passed the Survey of Well Being in Young Children had concerns about their child's ELS.…”

BACKGROUND: Preschool children develop early literacy skills (ELS) needed for reading acquisition. Screening for delayed ELS could trigger interventions to prevent reading problems. OBJECTIVE: To develop a brief screening test for ELS delays, the Early Literacy Skills Assessment Tool (ELSAT). METHODS: This study included 4-year-old, typically developing, English language−predominant children attending preschool. The ELSAT comprised 63 items relating to 3 main ELS domains and was piloted with 21 children. After we excluded items that were nondiscriminatory, 57 items remained and were administered to 96 children. Items were compared with reference measures of ELS (Get Ready to Read−Revised), and language (Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-4 and Phonological Awareness from the Comprehensive Test of Phonological Processing-2). Within-domain reliability was calculated for each of the 3 ELS domains and item correlations between all ELSAT items and the reference measures were calculated.

Objective: To screen children under 24 months of age for neuropsychomotor and social-emotional development in a municipality of the Brazilian semi-arid region, using the Survey of Well-Being of Young Children (SWYC) scale. Methods: This is a quantitative cross-sectional study with a non-probabilistic sample, involving children aged 1 to 24 months and their respective mothers, recruited from primary care services in the municipality of Picos, Piauí, Northeastern Brazil. The screening for neuropsychomotor and social-emotional development using the SWYC scale also provided information about the family context. In addition, we administered a questionnaire to assess the children’s demographic and socioeconomic factors. Descriptive data analysis was performed. Results: The sample consisted mostly of adult mothers (84.0%), with more than 8 years of schooling (83.3%), belonging to the C, D, and E socioeconomic classes (75.3%). The prevalence of suspected cases of delayed neuropsychomotor development and social-emotional changes was 12.7 and 42.2%, respectively. Conclusions: The results point to the existence of children at risk of delayed development, particularly in the social-emotional domain, reaffirming the need to adopt child development screening as a health service routine, with the implementation of appropriate intervention programs.

“…Com relação ao SWYC, é tido como um instrumento robusto, de triagem para detecção de alteração no desenvolvimento, comportamento e contexto familiar de crianças de 1 a 65 meses É extremamente útil na saúde primária e bastante necessário nas pesquisas que envolvem a saúde pública por serem úteis para identificação precoce de riscos na saúde da criança e da família (Chung et al2016;Iyer, Dawson, Sawyer, Abdullah, Saju & Needlman, 2017;Fierman et al 2016;Kurtz, Levine & Safyer 2017;Moreira 2016;Serres & Chen 2017;Whitesell, Sarche, & Trucksess, 2015).…”

RESUMOEste estudo fez parte das atividades desenvolvidas no Mestrado de Medicina do Programa de saúde Materno Infantil da Universidade Federal do Ceará, no Brasil. Objetivo. Avaliar a consistência bibliográfica do inventário de percepção de vinculação materna (IPVM) e do Survey of Wellbeing of Young Children (SWYC), apontando informações de confiabilidade e validade sobre suas medidas. Métodos: Este é um estudo de revisão, realizado no período de fevereiro a dezembro do ano de 2017, nas bases dos periódicos CAPES, na Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde (LILACS, MEDLINE e IBECS), no Pubmed e Scielo. Resultados: Constatou-se que esses instrumentos investigativos são bastante necessários nas pesquisas que envolvem saúde pública, por serem úteis para identificação precoce de riscos na saúde da criança, como também identificar e fortalecer os vínculos familiares dos cuidados das crianças de zero a três anos. Conclusão: Concluiu-se que o SWYC é tido como um instrumento bastante útil para vigilância do desenvolvimento neuropsicomotor, socioemocional e de comportamento, sendo também um importante sinalizador do contexto de vida das crianças. O IPVM mostrou-se consistente para avaliar a vinculação das mães de crianças de seis a treze anos de idade, denotando elevada fidedignidade, contudo indicamos a necessidades de novas pesquisas com este instrumento no Brasil, a fim de possibilitar a sua validação. Os dois instrumentos se mostraram úteis na atenção primária, por serem de fácil acesso, viáveis, de baixo custo e fácil aplicação, além de possuírem eficácia técnica e poderem ser utilizados em larga escala.Palavras-chave: desenvolvimento infantil; relações mãe-filho; comportamento infantil; apego; diagnóstico; comportamental.
