A Teoria de Défice Fonológico atribui as dificuldades causada pela Perturbação da Aprendizagem Específica - Leitura (PAE-DL) a uma disfunção nos mecanismos de consciência fonética. Porém, diversos estudos sugerem que as dificuldades cognitivas causadas pela PAE-DL não se restringem ao domínio fonológico, existindo dados que sugerem a presença de limitações no funcionamento de outros sistemas cognitivos, o que faz com que os sujeitos com PAE-DL apresentem um elevado número de falhas cognitivas quotidianas, o que pode ter um impacto no autoconceito destes sujeitos. Este estudo procura averiguar a existência de um maior número de falhas quotidianas de memória, atenção e funcionamento motor de uma amostra de adultos com PAE-DL em comparação com um grupo de controlo; e a existência de diferenças de autoconceito, perceção de suporte social e perceção de autoeficácia entre estes dois grupos. Para este fim, foram utilizadas duas medidas de auto-relato: O Questionário e Falhas Cognitivas e o Inventário Clínico do Autoconceito. Os resultados obtidos sugerem que os participantes diagnosticados com PAE-DL apresentam um número significativamente maior de falhas quotidianas de memória, atenção e funcionamento motor. Porém, não se verificou a existência de diferenças significativas entre estes dois grupos a nível do autoconceito, perceção de aceitação social e perceção de autoeficácia. Os resultados obtidos no QFC sugerem que as limitações cognitivas quotidianas da população com PAE-DL não se restringem a tarefas que requerem processamento fonético e ao domínio académico, o que sugere que a explicação etiológica oferecida pela Teoria do Défice Fonológico é limitada. Assim, deve ser adotado um paradigma holístico para que se possa compreender na integra o funcionamento da PAE-DL e para que se possam desenvolver planos de intervenção adequados ás necessidades desta população.
The Phonological Deficit Theory postulates that the difficulties caused by Specific Learning Disability with Reading Deficit (PAE-DL) are caused by a dysfunction in phonetic awareness mechanisms. However, several studies suggest that the cognitive difficulties caused by PAE-DL are not restricted to the phonological domain, with some data suggesting the presence of limitations in the functioning of other cognitive systems, which makes the subjects with PAE-DL produce a elevated number of everyday cognitive failures, which may have an impact on the self-concept of these subjects. This study seeks to ascertain the existence of a greater number of eveyday failures of memory, attention and motor functioning of a sample of adults with PAE-DL compared to a control group; and the existence of differences of self-concept, perception of social support and perception of self-efficacy between these two groups. For this purpose, two self-report measures were used: The Cognitive Failures Questionnaire and the Clinical Inventory of Self-Concept. The results of this study suggest that the participants diagnosed with PAE-DL present a significantly greater number of eveyday failures of memory, attention and motor functioning. However, it was not verified the existence of significant differences between these two groups in terms of self-concept, perception of social acceptance and perception of self-efficacy. The results in the QFC suggests that the everyday cognitive limitations of the PAE-DL population are not restricted to activities that require phonetic processing and to the academic domain, what suggests that the etiological explanation offered by the Phonological Deficit heory is limited. Thus, a holistic paradigm must be adopted in order to fully understand the functioning of the PAE-DL and to develop intervention plans appropriate to the needs of this population.
