The present prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD)
demands changes in health policies highlights barriers that are
inherent to the national diversity and therefore poses great
challenges to the planning and delivering specialized services. Sys-
tematic data regarding the level of knowledge and information
about autism in the general population may help in building a set
of evidences to support decision-making processes about inter-
vention proposals directed towards this population. Aiming to
contribute to evidence-based practice, this study used a digital-
delivered questionnaire to assess the knowledge by the general
population about autism in Brazil. A self-explanatory question-
naire was made available on-line. It was comprised by 57 questions
divided in five domains: data about the answerer; information
about how the person had access to the issue of autism; informa-
tion about the concept of autism (signs, symptoms and etiology);
information about the characteristics of persons with autism and
what are the professionals that are essential in the team that assists
these individuals. Participants were contacted via e-mail and given
full information on the nature of the research. They were 4282 per-
sons living in the five large regions of Brazil. Results indicate that
most of the participants were mothers, followed by teachers. The
analysis of the answers demands consideration of the hypothesis
that although most of the participants have answered that they
knew what is Autism, this knowledge is based on lay beliefs and
not on scientific-based information. This reality must be taken into
account when proposing intervention programs directed to per-
sons with ASD.

Introduction Among great variety of the manifestations of juve-
nile deviation of behavior, with its social significance, delinquency
draws a special attention, in particular, with its aggressive mani-
festation.
Objectives Our task is specification of psychopathological pecu-
liarities of two forms of aggressive behavior of delinquency.
Methods Fifty delinquent juveniles from 14 to 18 years of age
(inclusive) have been examined. Two forms of aggressive mani-
festations have been picked out: non-pathological: 36 (72%) and
pathological: 14 (28%).
Results Non-pathological aggression basically is conditioned by
the influence of micro-social negative conditions and stress situ-
ations. The contents of aggressive acts are closely connected with
the peculiarities of characterological features; aggressive behav-
ior is characterized with an episodic appearing, less severity and
is often manifested in threatening. Marked cruelty, sadism and
vandalism are found comparatively seldom. The violation of social
adaptation is found in them in stresses, stipulated with negative
micro-social factors; they are more manageable and comparatively
quickly regress.
The peculiarities of pathological aggression are represented
by super valuable and sadistic manifestations, comparatively
seldom–with signs of dysphoria. The aggression, stipulated by
pathocharacterological reactions is manifested in the form of
pathologically super valued and affective situational acts of behav-
ior.
Conclusions Aggressive behavior of delinquency is chiefly
observed in its non-pathological form, which can be explained by
the hard social-economical background, visible growth of aggres-
siveness in an immense part of population, moral and ethic
deprivation and frustration. The society itself is a certain indicator
of aggressiveness.

Introduction Many authors have agreed on the clinical impor-
tance of sensory regulation for a child’s cognitive, affective and
social development. Sensory regulation abilities are fundamental
for an efficient modulation of internal states and the development
of appropriately graded responses to the constantly changing sen-
sory experiences. Sensory modulation deficit is an essential feature
of regulation disorders of sensory processing (RDSP), that is charac-
terized by difficulties in regulating emotions, behaviors and motor
abilities, in response to sensory stimulation and lead to impair-
ment in functioning. We also know that, through daily interactions
and early relationship (child’s attachment), parents play a crucial
role on child’s regulation in terms of their emotional and physical
availability and how they interpret and respond to child needs.
Objective The authors will present a clinical case of a two-year
child who has been diagnosed with RDSP, highlighting the main
features, types (hypersensitive; hyposensitive/under-responsive;
sensory-stimulation seeking/impulsive) and challenges of this dis-
turb.
Aims Explore the association between sensory regulation diffi-
culties, RDSP and child attachment.
Methods Systematic literature review.
Results Recent studies showed the high prevalence of sensory
regulation difficulties (33–76%) and insecure attachment (80%) in
children with psychiatric disorders. Results also revealed that chil-
dren with greater sensory impairment were significantly more
likely to showelevated scores of insecurity (avoidance and depend-
ence) to their caregiver.
