Children with autism are characterized by significant deficits to engage in behaviors coordinated attention (CA). The CA impairment interfere with development of the child's attentional states, involving the joint engagement with each other. Hence, the use of interventions based on teaching this skill is becoming increasingly common. Results from various studies indicate that skills training targeted at parents is associated with increased communication and social skills of children with autism. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the intervention with caregivers program, based on the proposed by Kasari et al (2010) and examine the relationship between the caregiver responsiveness and engagement whole attention, and maintenance of new repertoire three months after completion the study (follow-up). Participants were seven caregivers and their children diagnosed with autism, aged between 47 and 67 months. The intervention program administered with the caregivers lasted two months, and consisted of four group meetings four individualized monitoring.

The results indicated significant differences in the duration of the joint engagement (p = 0.016) and non-joint (p = 0.018) measured before and after the intervention, the Wilcoxon test for repeated measures showed significant differences (p = 0.016) in the behavior of caregivers after the intervention, there were no significant changes in pragmatic language of children. The data indicated that the course promoted changes in the pattern of engagement of the child with the caregiver and also promoted an increase in the responsiveness of caregivers, and these gains were maintained during the session seguimento.Os findings were relevant to strengthen the importance of develop intervention programs that empower parents to promote improvements in sociocomunicativas skills of their children with autism.

The current population aging process has focused attention on many research and new services. The researches advance in the understanding of the specificities of aging, among the study themes, the formal caregiver of institutionalized elderly was chosen in this research. The study aimed to evaluate the psychosocial risks and stress of formal caregivers, who work in Long Stay Institutions for the Elderly. Participants were 33 caregivers of elderly people who responded to the Protocol for the Evaluation of Psychosocial Work Risks; Perceived Stress Inventory and performed laboratory analysis of saliva to gauge cortisol levels. The main results indicate that the caregivers perceived themselves to be less stressed (mean = 20 ± 7.830; p <0.0001); cortisol levels were also below the reference value established by the laboratory (mean = 9.2 ± 3.59; P <0.0001); The organization of the work presented a high risk for them (mean = 3.00 ± 1.34, p <0.000); Found that there is a statistically significant relationship between cortisol levels and the high risk of the prescribed work organization (r = -0.4394; p = 0.0359), as well as between the perceived stress and the feeling of disqualification in the caregivers ( R = 0.48854, p = 0.0042). Male caregivers with higher education have been more dissatisfied with the work performed, although the qualification of this workforce is increasing. It is concluded that intrinsic factors (gender, age, schooling ...) added to the work environment are determinant for the psychosocial risks and stress of the formal caregivers.
