Studies show a general prevalence of mental disorders among children and adolescent that cause significant losses in intellectual functioning. In this regard, the objective of this dissertation was to investigate the intellectual profile of children with psychiatric and neurodevelopmental disorders who were under medical supervision at the time of evaluation. Thus, we sought to analyze the Intelligence Quotient (IQ) of these patients from age groups; in addition to evaluating the sensitivity of the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence (WASI) to aid diagnosis of autistic patients. It was found that IQ decreased with age, being impacted mainly by executive functioning (t=-2.91; p=.004); that IQ was able to differentiate autistic patients from this sample when compared to a control group (AUC = 0.831); and that the WASI demonstrates relevance for diagnostic aid.
