Abstract

The objectives of this study are to analyze the Human Figure Drawings (HFD) of children diagnosed with ASD to find common patterns of representation and establish HFD relationships based on comorbidity and diagnosis. The participating sample consists of 24 subjects diagnosed with ASD. For this, the instrument proposed by Koppitz has been used identifying 34 variables to analyze. The analysis was made through univariate, bivariante and descriptive statistical analysis, contingency tables, as well as the association through the Chi-square test. The results reveal that the intellectual disability determine the subjects represent the HFD, and that the subjects with Asperger diagnosis differ significantly from the other two groups, Autism and TDI. Recurrent patterns of ASD in subjects with ASD do not comply with the typical sequence of children’s drawing as set out in the literature. This could be used in practice as a support tool in the diagnosis of ASD.
