RESUMO
Atualmente, aponta-se que a prevalência de crianças diagnosticadas com Transtorno do Espectro Autista é de uma criança para cada sessenta e oito. Diante disso, aventa-se a possibilidade de uma epidemia. Este trabalho tem como objetivo tecer considerações a respeito do aumento de crianças diagnosticadas com Transtorno do Espectro Autista contemporaneamente. A partir de uma investigação teórica, procurou-se conjecturar hipóteses para esse fenômeno e suas devidas implicações para a prática clínica do psicólogo. Foram realizadas pesquisas em bases de dados como PubMed, Medline e Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde ­ Psicologia Brasil. Os dados epidemiológicos encontrados apontaram para um aumento significativo do diagnóstico nos últimos anos, o que provocou uma questão sobre essa possível epidemia. Esses achados nos fizeram supor que tal aumento se edifique pela articulação entre as perspectivas psiquiátrica e social. A discussão dessa hipótese sustenta, então, que a prática do psicólogo diante da demanda referente ao sofrimento na infância deve ser pautada por um posicionamento ético e por uma clínica atenta ao cuidado...(AU)
ABSTRACT
Currently, estimates point to the prevalence of children diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) of one child every sixty-eight. The possibility of an epidemic is considered. This study makes some considerations about the increase in children diagnosed with ASD in the last decades. As a theoretical investigation, we thought of hypotheses for this phenomenon and its implications for the psychology clinical practice and searched databases such as Pubmed, Medline and BVS-PSI. The epidemiological data found indicated a significant increase in diagnosis in recent years, which raised a question about this possible epidemic. These findings have led us to suppose that such an increase is built by the articulation between the psychiatric and social perspectives. Our hypothesis holds that the psychologist's practice for suffering in childhood should be guided by an ethical stance and a clinic attentive to care...(AU)
