TITLE:

The use of fNIRS in research related to literacy in autistic children: A systematic review

PAGES: 80
BIG AREA: Ciências Humanas
AREA: Psicologia
SUMMARY:

Illiteracy rates are still high and troubling in Brazil, according to the National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep) and the National Indicator of Functional Literacy (INAF). While enrollment of students diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) has only been increasing in Early Childhood Education and Elementary School generating a greater demand for Inclusive Education. Understanding that Neuroscience can contribute to issues related with education, together with the concepts of epigenetics and Universal Design for Learning (UDL), articulated with social movements in favor of neurodiversity and the justification of the need for more assertive educational policies with methodologies aimed at the literacy of autistic children (ASD), that the topic of using fNIRS as a neuroimaging tool in literacy studies of autistic children coexists and becomes emerging. The objective was to carry out a systematic review of studies that used the Functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) technique, currently one of the neuroimaging tools that allows recordings of neural activation in a naturalistic way as it is wearable, non-invasive, safe and suitable for experiments. with children and about cognitive literacy processes. 103 studies were selected within the theme, 38 of which included experiments with fNIRS and the autistic population and 27 with children. It is concluded that there is a need for new scientific productions on the topic, with more rigorous criteria for inclusion of participants and that fNIRS has demonstrated to be a promising and suitable technique for studies with children regarding learning, taking due care in filtering of movement and physiological artifacts, considering and weighing certain limitations due to only collecting data from the surface of the cortex, not covering deeper areas that are also important in the cognitive processes of reading and writing.
