Full textIn recent years, research into Parkinson's disease (PD) has stopped focusing exclusively on its motor aspects, broadening the spectrum of action on factors that are often involved in the course of the disease and are very limiting for the patient, such as cognitive, behavioral and functional aspects. Despite the considerable interest to mild cognitive impairment and dementia in PD are currently few instruments specifically designed to assess these changes. Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-Cognitive (PD-CRS) was presented in 2008 as a specific instrument to assess cognitive impairment and dementia in PD. Given the need to conduct longitudinal studies over short intervals of time or test the effect of pharmacological products aimed at acting on cognitive decline in early stages of involvement of PD, there is an urgency for more data on its discriminative ability. Therefore, studying its performance to detect subtle impacts on the field of mild cognitive impairment in PD becomes fundamental. The same has happened with the functional assessment linked to these aspects. Using scales designed to be applied in other pathologies difficult to assess the effects that the day has PD and does not control essentially particular factors that take place in it, leaving many dysfunctional aspects outside assessment. The first objective of this study was to provide new information about the psychometric capabilities of the PD-CRS in the environment of the patient with PD and cognitive border between normal and mild cognitive impairment. PD-CRS has proven a reliable and valid instrument to discriminate between cognitive levels in PD, suggesting that clinicians can use confidently cutoff scores proposed to detect cases of mild cognitive impairment and PD. It also has clinimetric data that allow monitoring of cognitive changes in PD patients without previous cognitive impairment over time. The second goal is the design and validation of a new scale, Parkinson's Disease-Cognitive Functional Rating Scale (PD-CFRS), capable of measuring functional impairment caused by subtle cognitive disorders which develop from the early stages of PD minimizing interference resulting from purely motor aspects. PD-CFRS is set as a recommended instrument to capture the spectrum of functional impairment associated with declining cognitive performance in PD and suitable for use in both clinical and research. Both studies developed in the context of this PhD project have met the established objectives, achieving international dissemination and recognition.

Full textThis doctoral dissertation discusses theoretical and empirical aspects of the neuropsychological assessment in cerebrovascular diseases, proposing the construction of a cognitive screening instrument. The thesis was divided into four studies. The Study 1 presents steps and criteria to construct and adapt neuropsychological instruments. In this study, was highlighted the importance to have a theoretical basis to development the items of a test, besides the contribution of psychometry, neuropsycholinguistics, experimental psychology and information processing models. The Study 2 is a systematic review that analyzed the psychometric properties of neuropsychological instruments to evaluate stroke samples and the performance of patients assessed by the studies. It was concluded that many researches use instruments developed for evaluating patients with dementia, not sensitive to adults poststroke. The main deficits of this disease involve processing speed, visuoconstruction, episodic memory, attention and executive functions, which should be included in neuropsychological batteries. The Study 3 empirically investigated which tasks are important for evaluating poststroke patients. When analyzing the performance by items in a brief neuropsychological evaluation instrument, were identified that orientation, oral language, academic abilities (reading, writing and arithmetic) and executive functions tasks best discriminated between clinical and healthy groups. The Study 4 presents the construction and the psychometric properties of Cognitive Screening (TRIACOG) to evaluate adults post cerebrovascular disease. TRIACOG has undergone rigorous steps: literature review, pilot studies, and application in 100 post-stroke adults and 100 neurologically healthy adults. The instrument presents evidence of validity based on content, on relation to other variables (criterion and convergent validity) and on response processes; and test-retest and inter-rater reliability evidences. It is intended that these studies may guide researchers who want to build neuropsychological instruments and contribute with a tool that can be used in the clinical, hospital and research contexts, by health professionals.

Validar uma bateria de testes neuropsicológicos para a avaliação cognitiva de idosos analfabetos. MÉTODOS: Foram estudados sujeitos analfabetos maiores de sessenta anos, procedentes do grupo de idosos de Chã de Alegria, município situado a 57 Km do Recife. Foram controladas as variáveis idade, sexo, grau de analfabetismo e capacidade de assinar. Os sujeitos selecionados foram submetidos à aplicação do Mini-Exame do Estado Mental (MEEM) e da Bateria de Rastreio Cognitivo de Analfabetos (BR-Cog-A). Foram realizadas análises de confiabilidade e de validade da BR-Cog-A. RESULTADOS: Trinta sujeitos foram selecionados. O escore total do MEEM sofreu influência das variáveis sexo, grau de analfabetismo e capacidade de assinar. O escore total da BR-Cog-A não sofreu influência de nenhuma das variáveis estudadas. A análise fatorial identificou a presença de sete fatores associados à BRCog- A. Em quatro destes fatores, o coeficiente α de Crönbach foi maior que 0,7. O coeficiente de correlação de Pearson obtido para a comparação da BR-Cog-A com o MEEM foi de 0,630 (p < 0,01). CONCLUSÕES: Ao contrário do MEEM, a BR-Cog-A não foi sensível ao grau de contato com a linguagem escrita. Esse aspecto é favorável no processo de validação da BR-Cog-A como uma ferramenta adequada para a avaliação cognitiva de analfabetos

Full textSeveral neuropsychological and psychopathological studies have sought to identify the cognitive features associated with different psychiatric conditions and their relationship with clinical and demographic variables, functioning and quality of life. Major depressive (MDD) and bipolar disorder (BD) have been the subject of several such investigations, although findings are still preliminary and limited in their clinical applicability and generalizability due to the methodological heterogeneity of studies in the area. Therefore, the goal of this research was to investigate the relationship between cognitive, clinical and demographic features as well as quality of life and functioning in a naturalistic sample of patients with MDD and TB as compared to healthy subjects. The first study investigated differences between the cognitive performance of patients with MDD, BDI, BDII and adults with no mood disorders. Patients with MDD showed impairments in sustained and divided attention, working memory, verbal fluency, inhibitory control and decision making, especially in timed tasks. Patients with BDII showed variable performance and high rates of impairment in attentional interference control. Finally, patients with BDI showed consistently poorer performance than the remaining groups on most cognitive tasks, as well as greater impairments in attention and inhibition than individuals with MDD. In light of these findings and studies regarding the variability of cognitive profiles within diagnostic categories, the second study aimed to identify executive functioning profiles in mood disorders using hierarchical cluster analysis. Four distinct groups of participants were identified. The first was characterized by the absence of executive impairment and was mostly composed of control participants, while the second group showed slight impairments in inhibitory control, divided attention, working memory and verbal fluency. Clusters 3 and 4, composed clinical participants only, showed impairments in inhibitory control and working memory (cluster 3), and inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility (cluster 4). Given the heterogeneity of profiles identified, and the known impact of cognition on functional outcome and quality of life in mood disorders, the third study sought to identify profiles of functioning and quality of life in MDD and BD, as well as their association with clinical, demographic and cognitive variables. The subscales of the WHODAS 2. 0 and WHOQOL-BREF questionnaires were submitted to a hierarchical cluster analysis, which assigned patients into three groups. The first, composed mostly of control participants and a small percentage of psychiatric patients, had the highest scores on these measures. The second group obtained intermediate scores, and contained mostly individuals with MDD and BDII, and, to a lesser extent, BDI and control participants. Lastly, cluster 3 had the worst overall performance and was composed predominantly of patients with TBI, and some patients with TBII and TDM. No control participants were included in this group. Poor functioning and quality of life were associated with impairments in inhibitory control, decision making and attentional control. Together, these studies provided important data regarding cognition, functioning and quality of life in mood disorders, revealing a continuum of severity and several possible targets for therapeutic approaches developed specifically for these diagnostic categories.
Atualmente a neuropsicologia contribui à psicopatologia pela busca e identificação de características cognitivas de diferentes quadros psicopatológicos, e sua relação com fatores clínicos, demográficos, de capacidade funcional e qualidade de vida. Neste contexto, o transtorno depressivo maior (TDM) e o transtorno bipolar (TB) tem sido alvo de diversas investigações, embora ainda preliminares e com limitada aplicabilidade clínica e generalizabilidade devido a sua heterogeneidade metodológica. Assim, o objetivo desta pesquisa foi investigar a interrelação entre fatores cognitivos, clínicos, demográficos, a qualidade de vida e funcionalidade de amostra naturalística de pacientes com TDM e TB, comparados a participantes saudáveis. O primeiro estudo visou a identificar diferenças entre o TDM, TBI, TBII e participantes controles quanto aos processos neurocognitivos de funções executivas, atencão e velocidade de processamento. Pacientes com TDM apresentaram prejuízos na atenção sustentada e dividida, memória de trabalho, fluência verbal livre, controle inibitório e tomada de decisão, especialmente em tarefas envolvendo avaliações temporais de desempenho. Pacientes com TBII apresentaram desempenho heterogêneo, e alta prevalência de déficits no controle de interferências atencionais. Por último, pacientes com TBI apresentaram maior número de componentes executivos prejudicados quando comparados ao restante dos grupos, além de maior prejuízo atencional e inibitório do que o TDM .Com base nestes achados e evidências quanto à variabilidade de perfis cognitivos dentro de diferentes categorias diagnósticas, o segundo estudo buscou identificar perfis de funcionamento executivo nos transtornos do humor por meio de análise de clusters. Foram solicitados quatro agrupamentos distintos de participantes. O primeiro caracterizou-se pela ausência de prejuízos executivos e predominância de participantes controles, e o segundo por prejuízos leves no controle inibitório, atenção dividida, memória de trabalho e fluência verbal. Os clusters 3 e 4, compostos unicamente por participantes clínicos, apresentaram prejuízos inibitórios e mnemônicos de trabalho (cluster 3) e comprometimento no controle inibitório e flexibilidade cognitiva (cluster 4). Em vista da heterogeneidade de perfis identificados, e do conhecido impacto da cognição no desfecho funcional e na qualidade de vida de pacientes com transtornos do humor, o terceiro estudo buscou especificar perfis de funcionalidade e qualidade de vida no TDM e TB, e sua associação com variáveis clínicas, demográficas e cognitivas.A análise de clusters hierárquicos baseada nas subescalas dos questionários WHODAS 2. 0 e WHOQOL-BREF identificaram três perfis de qualidade de vida e de funcionalidade. No perfil 1, enquadraram-se a maioria dos participantes controle, assim como alguns membros dos grupos clínicos, apresentando os maiores escores de funcionalidade e qualidade de vida da amostra. O cluster 2, em posição intermediária, foi composto em maior parte por pacientes portadores de TDM e TBII e em menor proporção por pacientes com TBI e controles. Por último, o cluster 3 apresentou o pior desempenho geral e foi composto predominantemente por pacientes portadores de TBI, alguns pacientes com TBII e com TDM, e ausência de controles. Prejuízos na funcionalidade e qualidade de vida associaram-se a alterações no controle inibitório, tomada de decisão e controle atencional. Em conjunto, os estudos ofereceram dados importantes a respeito dos perfis cognitivos, de funcionalidade e qualidade de vida nos transtornos do humor, permitindo a identificação de um continuum de gravidade e apontando possíveis focos para abordagens terapêuticas desenvolvidas para estas categorias diagnósticas.

Full textMultiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory, demyelinating and neurodegenerative central nervous system disease and is the principal cause of disability in young adults. Even though its aetiology is unknown, it has been observed that it develops in people with genetic susceptibility that is exposed to certain environmental factors. In the natural history of the disease, cognitive impairment is frequent and may be present in 40 to 65% of the patients. It can be observed from the initial phases of the disease until the progressive forms of MS. Patients with cognitive impairment have difficulties to maintain their job and they usually need help in the activities of daily living. Therefore, a neuropsychological assessment is needed in order to make adaptations in patient’s jobs or to develop cognitive stimulation programs. There are different tests to evaluate cognitive impairment in MS patients, nevertheless, many of them require specialized personnel and minimum 10 minutes to be administrated. This doctoral thesis suggests that the presence of cognitive impairment is a common event in MS evolution that can be detected with cognitive screening tests as well as with neurophysiological studies. The doctoral thesis consists of two studies regarding cognitive evaluation of MS patients. The first one, compares the SDMT and the PASAT, two known screening tests for cognitive impairment in MS, in order to assess which one is more sensitive and specific to detect cognitive impairment after one-year follow-up. The second one, compares cognitive performance of MS patients in early stages of the disease and a control group, using event related potentials. In the first study 237 patients and 57 healthy subjects were included. All participants were assessed at baseline with a comprehensive neuropsychological battery. After one year, 196 patients were assessed a second time. The results showed that the SMDT is more sensitive and specific than the PASAT to detect cognitive impairment and it also has a better correlation with the other tests that were administered. It was also observed that the SDMT is easier and faster to administer than the PASAT and in addition, all the subjects were able to answer it. On the other hand, instructions to answer the PASAT needed to be repeated several times, making the test longer and we found that 5.3% of controls didn’t want to answer it. In the second study, 27 patients with MS in initial phases of the disease and 31 controls were included. The performance monitoring system through the error-related negativity (ERN), that is an event-related brain potential observed following behavioural errors was evaluated. A comprehensive neuropsychological evaluation was also performed. No differences between groups were observed in most of the neuropsychological tests or on the auditory ODDBALL task. In the STOP task behavioural performance of patients and controls was similar, nevertheless, the amplitude of the ERN associated with STOP errors was significantly higher in the patients group. This was observed because after de STOP signal presentation, commission errors were associated with an increase in the negative wave. This finding indicates that patients in early stages of MS use larger brain areas in order to maintain the same cognitive performance than healthy controls. The results of this doctoral thesis support the SDMT as screening test of cognitive impairment in MS patients and suggest the presence of compensatory cerebral mechanisms in the early stages of the disease, when cognitive impairment is not yet observed in a neuropsychological assessment.

O envelhecimento é acompanhado de declínio em funções cognitivas, especialmente a memória, muitas vezes evoluindo para um quadro de demência. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar os impactos de um programa de estimulação cognitiva sobre o desempenho de idosos em tarefas de memória lógica e recordação livre. O estudo foi realizado com 16 idosos selecionados por meio de uma avaliação neuropsicológica com diagnóstico compatível à provável doença de Alzheimer em fases leve ou moderada. Eles foram divididos randomicamente em um grupo experimental, com oito idosos submetidos às sessões de estimulação cognitiva e um grupo controle, com oito idosos que não foram submetidos a essas sessões. O programa de estimulação durou quatro sessões e foi constituído de oficinas seqüenciais com material verbal referente ao tema “Passear em grupo realizando uma pescaria”, de apresentação repetida a ser evocado por livre recordação, e seguido de reconhecimento, podendo ser facilitado por dicas contextuais ou pré-ativação da informação requerida. Para aprendizagem das novas informações, utilizou-se da técnica de terapia de reminiscências. Os idosos foram avaliados antes do programa e uma semana após o término. Os resultados sugerem que a estimulação cognitiva melhora significativamente (p< 0,05) o desempenho nas tarefas de memória lógica de curto prazo com conteúdo relacionado à vivência do programa. Além disso, os resultados indicam que a correção proposicional produz escores significativamente melhores (p<0,007) do que os escores obtidos pela correção literal no teste de memória lógica, sendo que uma correção muito rigorosa pode atestar déficits maiores do que eles se apresentam. A estimulação cognitiva também melhora significativamente (p<0,05) o desempenho em listas que contêm palavras relacionadas à vivência da estimulação, porém o desempenho dos idosos não aumenta em listas com efeito semântico. Esses dados mostram que o melhor desempenho da memória de idosos com demência de Alzheimer ocorre em tarefas relacionadas à vivência pessoal e incentivam a aplicação de intervenções neuropsicológicas no contexto clínico. _______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
Ageing is often associated with the decline of some cognitive abilities, especially memory, sometimes progressing to dementia. The current study aimed to evaluate the effects of a cognitive stimulation program on the development of elderly people with Alzheimer´s disease in tasks of logical memory and free recall. Sixteen elderly people were evaluated with the diagnosis of probable initial or mild Alzheimer’s disease. These people were being treated in the Elderly Center of the Brasilia University Hospital. They were randomly divided into two groups: experimental group with eight elderly who were submitted to the cognitive stimulation program and control group with eight elderly who were not submitted to these sessions. The program lasted four sessions and consisted of a sequencial workshop related to the theme “Going for a walk in group to fish”. This workshop consisted of verbal material being presented to the elderly several times to be recovered by free recall, followed by recognition. This recognition could be facilitated by contextual tips or pre-activation of the information requested. The technique of reminiscence was used to the learning of new information. The elderly people were evaluated before the program and one week after it. The results suggest that cognitive stimulation improves significantly (p<0,05) the development in tasks of logical short-term memory related to stimulation’s context. Besides that, the results suggest that propositional analysis produces significantly (p < 0,007) better scores than the literal analysis of the logical memory test. Therefore, a very straight correction can indicate bigger deficits than the real ones. The cognitive stimulation also improves significantly (p<0,05) the development in tasks of free recall with lists containing words related to stimulation’s context. However the development of elderly people did not improve in lists with words containing semantic relations. This results show that the highest development of elderly people with Alzheimer´s disease occurs in tasks related to autobiographical context and these results also encourage the applicability of neuropsychological interventions for clinical purposes.

Full textThis dissertation presents a systematic review study, which investigated the role of age on cancellation tests, and an empirical study, which compared the performance between middle-aged adults and older adults in the Bells Test. In the systematic review, abstracts were sought in the databases Lilacs, Pubmed, PsycINFO and Scopus from 1989 to 2010, with the descriptors age or aging and bells cancellation test/task or visual hemineglect or visual neglect. There was a shortage of international papers that study the cancellation paradigm in relation to the variable age in healthy samples, and there were no studies in the national literature. Regarding the comparative empirical study, a sample of 80 neurologically healthy adults, high-educated, 40 from 40 to 59, and 40 from 60 to 75 years old, was assessed using the Bells Test. Its accuracy and speed processing were compared by an ANCOVA (years of education and frequency of writing and reading habits as covariants). The distribution of the qualitative data was compared with chi-square test. There were no differences between groups of middle-aged adults and older adults in the quantitative and qualitative performance of the Bells Test. We emphasize the need to invest in the Brazilian neuropsychological assessment field in obtaining a normative profile of Brazilian samples in this paradigm, by investigating the role of age in different age groups as the oldest old, and at different levels of education. Furthermore, data of clinical samples, neurological and psychiatric, must also be obtained to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of visual unilateral neglect.
Nessa dissertação é apresentado um estudo de revisão sistemática, que investigou o papel da idade em testes de cancelamento, e um estudo empírico, que comparou o desempenho entre adultos de idade intermediária e adultos idosos no Teste de Cancelamento dos Sinos. Na revisão sistemática, buscaram-se abstracts nas bases de dados Lilacs, Pubmed, PsycInfo e Scopus, de 1989 a 2010, com os descritores age or aging and bells test or cancellation test/task or visual hemineglect or visual neglect. Observou-se uma escassez de artigos internacionais que estudam o paradigma de cancelamento, em relação à variável idade, em população saudável e, na literatura nacional, não foi encontrado nenhum estudo. Em relação ao estudo empírico comparativo, uma amostra de 80 adultos neurologicamente saudáveis de alta escolaridade, 40 com 40 a 59 anos, e 40 com 60 a 75 anos de idade, foram avaliados com o Teste de Cancelamento dos Sinos. Sua acurácia e velocidade de processamento foram comparados por uma ANCOVA (covariantes anos de escolaridade e freqüência de hábitos de leitura e escrita). A distribuição quanto a dados qualitativos foi comparada com o Qui-Quadrado. Não houve diferenças entre os grupos de adultos de idade intermediária e adultos idosos no desempenho quantitativo e qualitativo do Teste de Cancelamento dos Sinos. Salienta-se a necessidade de se investir na neuropsicologia nacional na obtenção de um perfil normativo de amostras brasileiras neste paradigma, investigando-se o papel da idade em diferentes grupos etários, como idosos mais longevos, e da escolaridade em distintos níveis. Além disso, dados clínicos com amostras neurológicas e psiquiátricas também devem ser obtidos, para a investigação da acurácia diagnóstica de heminegligência visual.

Full textBells Cancellation Test has been being useful in neuropsychological evaluations in order to investigate attentional neurological impairments, mainly due to the hemineglect syndrome. As far as there are only a few international studies with tools based on this paradigm, this research aimed to investigating the role of sociodemographic variable education in visual attentional processing measured by means of the Bells Test. In the first study, a systematic review aimed to analyze the role of education in attentional processing examined by cancellation tests. In addition, the second study, that is empirical, presents the goal to verify if there are differences between young adults with different years of education regarding their performance in the Bells Test. The sample was comprised of 124 healthy young adults, divided into three groups according to schooling, 5-8, 9-11 and 12 or more years of formal education. Comparative data were analyzed throught an one-way ANCOVA. The main results showed that there are only a few studies conducted with healthy samples, in which the education factor is associated in general to other variables such as gender, cultural and etnic aspects. Among the main empirical findings, qualitative differences were observed between education groups. Less-education participants used more disorganizes strategies when compared to the high-educated group. This dissociation as well as the qualitative findings reinforce the need to investigate the relation between schooling and age, besides education and neurological disorders presented by clinical samples.
O Teste de Cancelamento dos Sinos tem sido útil em avaliações neuropsicológicas com a finalidade de investigar alterações atencionais neurológicas, principalmente decorrentes da síndrome de negligência unilateral. Frente aos poucos estudos conhecidos internacionalmente de instrumentos que sigam este paradigma e investiguem populações saudáveis e mesmo clínicas, a presente pesquisa buscou investigar o papel da variável sociodemográfica escolaridade no processamento atencional visual mensurado pelo Teste de Cancelamento dos Sinos. No primeiro estudo, de revisão sistemática, visou-se a investigar o papel da escolaridade no processamento atencional examinado por testes de cancelamento. Em complementaridade, o segundo estudo, empírico, objetivou verificar se há diferenças entre grupos de adultos jovens de diferentes escolaridades quanto ao desempenho no Teste de Cancelamento dos Sinos. Neste estudo participaram 124 adultos jovens saudáveis divididos em três grupos quanto à escolaridade de 5-8, 9-11 e 12 ou mais anos de educação formal. Os dados de desempenho foram comparados entre grupos pelo Teste estatístico ANCOVA de um fator. Como resultados, os estudos teórico e empírico apontam, primeiramente, para a escassez de pesquisas com populações saudáveis, sendo que a variável sociodemográfica escolaridade apresenta-se associada a outras variáveis, como gênero e aspectos culturais e étnicos.Dentre os principais achados encontrados, houve diferenças qualitativas significativas entre grupos, abrangendo estratégias cognitivas utilizadas, sendo que, por exemplo, os indivíduos de baixa escolaridade utilizaram mais a estratégia caótica contrariamente aos de escolaridade superior. Estes dados de dissociação e de desempenho qualitativo reforçam que mais estudos mostram-se necessários para investigar a relação da 13 variável escolaridade com diferentes níveis de grupos etários, assim como com amostras clínicas.

The aim of the first study was to compare discursive, pragmatic, lexical-semantic, reading and writing skills between inpatients with TBI (iTBI) and adults with no neurological damage. Our results showed between-group differences on all parameters evaluated, with control participants outperforming the iTBI group across all measures used in the study. The aim of the second investigation was to identify differences between outpatients with mild or severe TBI (oTBI) and healthy adults on communicative and executive functions, as well as to investigate associations and dissociations between patterns of impairment in the oTBI sample. The two groups differed in their performance on conversational and narrative discourse tasks, as well as on the following executive functions: planning, cognitive flexibility, working memory, processing speed and inhibitory control. Overall, the findings suggested that even subjects with relatively mild lesions and a theoretically good prognosis may experience impairments in discourse processing. The patient group was then further divided according to TBI severity, and differences in executive functions were identified between these two subgroups, as well as between each of these categories and the control group. Patients with severe TBI performed worse than control participants and subjects with mild TBI, and differences between patients with mild and severe TBI were identified in both studies. Lastly, the TBI groups showed dissociations between impairments in rule maintenance and processing speed, and associations between cognitive performance on planning tasks. These findings contributed to the current literature on the continuum of communicative and executive impairment profiles across all levels of TBI severity. The analyses performed in this dissertation may be used in public health services to perform a more accurate assessment of patients with TBI and improve prognostic accuracy, since some impairments may have an impact on global functioning and affect the length of the post-TBI recovery period.
A presente dissertação de mestrado compreende dois artigos empíricos que pretendem explorar a avaliação dos processamentos comunicativos e executivos de pacientes adultos com traumatismo cranioencefálico (TCE) em dois momentos após a lesão cerebral: no momento da internação (inpatients) e após alta hospitalar (outpatients). O primeiro estudo objetiva comparar os processamentos discursivo, pragmático, léxico-semântico, de leitura e de escrita de pacientes adultos pós TCE do tipo inpatients (TCEi), comparando o desempenho com indivíduos sem lesão cerebral. Os resultados indicaram que os participantes se diferenciaram nos quatro processamentos comunicativos sendo que o grupo com TCE teve pior desempenho.O segundo estudo teve como objetivo verificar se existem diferenças entre pacientes pós-TCE - do tipo outpatients com gravidades leve e grave - e indivíduos saudáveis, quanto ao desempenho nos processamentos comunicativos e executivos, além de identificar se associações e dissociações existem na amostra de TCE. Encontraram-se diferenças entre grupos nos escores do discurso conversacional e narrativo e nas habilidades executivas de planejamento, flexibilidade cognitiva, memória de trabalho, velocidade de processamento e inibição. Tais achados, de forma geral, indicam que pacientes com menor lesão e teoricamente melhor prognóstico, podem apresentar desempenho discursivo abaixo do esperado. Além disso, as tarefas indicaram diferenças nas habilidades executivas entre os três grupos. pacientes com TCE grave tiveram pior desempenho do que controles e pacientes com TCE leve, ainda TCE leve diferenciou-se dos graves nos dois estudos. Por último, dissociações entre os grupos de TCE foram encontradas nos itens de manutenção de regras e velocidade de processamento e associações encontradas nos itens de planejamento. Os resultados dos dois estudos empíricos contribuem para a comunidade científica em entender um perfil contínuo de dificuldades mesmo em pacientes com o menor índice de gravidade de lesão. As análises apresentadas nessa dissertação de mestrado são possíveis de serem implementadas nos serviços públicos para avaliação mais apurada desses pacientes e para identificar melhor prognóstico já que algumas dificuldades podem afetar globalmente o funcionamento dos pacientes e dificultar, inclusive, o período de recuperação pós lesão cerebral.
