O Transtorno Do Espectro Autista E as Representações Sociais De Professores: Uma Revisão De Literatura Em Produções Acadêmicas Brasileiras

Abstract

The present research aimed to investigate the state of knowledge regarding the social representations of teachers about students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), based on stricto sensu productions published in Brazil between 2005 and 2021. The methodological procedure used in this literature review was a systematic survey of dissertations and theses regarding the social representations of professors about students with ASD in the Brazilian Digital Library of Theses and Dissertations (BDTD), acronym in Brazilian Portuguese) and Catalog of Dissertation and Theses of the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) databases. After applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria, six works were selected, of which five dissertations and one thesis, to compose the analysis. As a result, we identified that most professors are stucked in social representations marked by prejudice and stereotypes. Therefore, it is necessary a broad and continuous clarification of the potential of these students in order to attitudinal changes may occur. We conclude that it is extremely important to carry out further research and studies that approach the theme of social representations and ASD in the academic environment, based on the scarce literature on the subject.
