Cross-Cultural Comparison of Adaptive Behaviour Between British and Brazilian Clinical Samples With Neurodevelopmental Disorders.
Article in Child: care, health and development, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Adaptive behaviour deficits are limitations in executing daily activities and difficulties in responding to environmental changes, which impact social participation and independence across contexts. Adaptive behaviour measures can be used to guide interventions for individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. Cross-cultural studies can contribute to the understanding of adaptive functioning of neurodivergence across countries. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study is to evaluate and compare the adaptive behaviour profiles of children and adolescents with neurodevelopmental condition from different countries.
methodsForty-eight children with an autism spectrum diagnosis were equally separated into country groups (Brazil and the United Kingdom) and ages (5-10 and 11-17 years old) and were evaluated with the Adaptive Behavior Assessment System, 3rd Edition (ABAS-3), the Parent Form (Ages 5-21), using the raw scores of the questionnaire.
resultsThe only scale in which a difference between nationality groups was identified was the self-direction scale, which evaluates skills needed for independence, responsibility and self-control, with older Brazilians scoring higher than their British peers in the same age group.
conclusionSimilar profiles of adaptive functioning in individuals with ASD were found across cultures, with a singular difference in the self-direction scale. The study's findings shed light on the need for interventions to increase adaptive functioning skills acquisition, regardless of the culture or country in which the individual is.
