Developmental profiles of children with autism spectrum disorder on Developmental Test Čuturić

Research has shown that uneven developmental profiles with better nonverbal than verbal abilities are a common characteristic of children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Developmental (dis)harmony to a greater extent may depend on the participants’ age, but also on the measuring instrument applied. In Croatia, Developmental test Čuturić (RTČ-P) is the only standardized test used for the assessment of cognitive abilities in preschool children. Since the number of items on RTČ-P is relatively small, it is not known whether this test enables recognition of developmental disharmony in children with ASD. Therefore, the aim of this research was to get an insight into the developmental profiles of the children with ASD on RTČ-P and to describe their characteristics in relation to their cognitive abilities and differences between developmental areas. Sample consisted of 25 children diagnosed with ASD. The developmental profiles were based on scores achieved on RTČ-P. Both children with average (n=6) and below average intellectual abilities (n=19) showed uneven developmental profiles on RTČ-P. Nonverbal abilities scores were higher than verbal abilities scores. The highest scores were achieved in visuo-perceptive abilities. With respect to verbal abilities, language expression scores were slightly higher than language comprehension scores, which is also a hallmark of children with communication difficulties. Overall, the results on RTČ-P do show unevenness of the developmental profile of children with ASD. Moreover, the disharmony is the same as described with the use of other instruments (higher nonverbal than verbal scores, higher results on language production than language comprehension). That is important information for clinicians, who should analyze child`s developmental profiles and consider the need for further diagnostic procedures is this type of atypical profile is noticed in a child.
