Abstract
La evaluación del desarrollo madurativo como elemento de monitoreo y seguimiento oportuno es vital y sus aportes son de gran relevancia para una atención temprana en casos de rezago significativo, déficit o alteraciones a lo largo del desarrollo. Por tanto el presente estudio tuvo como objetivo principal determinar el curso del desarrollo actual de niños en etapa preescolar en edades de 4 y 5 años de una Unidad Educativa pública de la cuidad de La Paz, Bolivia, en cinco esferas: desarrollo psicomotriz, desarrollo del lenguaje, desarrollo cognitivo, desarrollo socio-afectivo y habilidades de autonomía. El estudio desarrollado es de tipo exploratorio cuantitativo, de corte trasversal, con una muestra por conveniencia de 21 niños, a los cuales se les aplicó el Protocolo de Desarrollo Madurativo (PDM). Se encontró índices de desarrollo medios entre el 60% y 70%, y niveles de desarrollo en la esfera socio-afectiva y las habilidades de autonomía circundando porcentajes por debajo de lo esperado para un desenvolvimiento óptimo.
The evaluation of maturational development as an element of timely monitoring and follow-up is vital and its contributions are of great relevance for early attention in cases of significant lag, deficit or alterations throughout the development. Therefore, the main objective of this study was to determine the course of the current development of preschool children ages 4 and 5 years of a public education unit in the city of La Paz, Bolivia, in five areas: psychomotor development, development of the language, cognitive development, socio-affective development and autonomy skills. The study developed is a quantitative exploratory type, cross-sectional, with a convenience sample of 21 children, to which the Madurative Development Protocol (PDM) was applied, finding average development rates between 60% and 70% and levels of development in the socio-affective sphere and autonomy skills surrounding percentages below what was expected for optimal development.
