Abstract

This study aims to review progress in monitoring a childof five years and nine months with pervasive developmental disorders using a pilot program to improve executive function. According to theparticipant´s age and as well as its features, observational methodology is suitable for this research. The results show that monitoring behaviours continueimproving and the adult intervention decreases as the intervention proceeds. The child takes the initiative of actions demonstrating more autonomy and rigor in monitoring activity at the end of the intervention.
