| Samenvatting: | Leukemia is classified as the most common type of cancer in the age group between 0 and 19 years, being
the most frequent Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in childhood and responsible for 75% of cases
among children under 15 years of age. Cancer alters the child's life in many ways. Cognitive changes are
identified, but also behavioral changes and learning disabilities that do not have their etiology fully
understood. In this sense, the need to investigate the behavioral and learning profiles of ALL survivors is
identified. Thirty-six children and adolescents aged seven to 13 years participated in the study, being 14
girls, divided into two groups, being G1 of ALL survivors and G2 of typically developing children and
adolescents matched to G1 from age, sex and type of school. G1 members were treated exclusively with
chemotherapy. Behavioral, learning, and reintegration profiles were assessed by applying the Child
Behavior Checklist (CBCL) to parents and teachers of the Deasy-Spinetta Behavioral Questionnaire
(DSBQ). Data from both instruments were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Pearson's
chi-square test was used, adopting the p value <0.05, as a parameter to analyze the levels of significance
between the domains that make up the research instruments and the socio-demographic variables of
gender, age at diagnosis and treatment time, as well as for comparing parents' and teachers' conceptions of
the participants' behavior and learning process. The data point to the high prevalence of internalizing
complaints and learning disabilities, especially among girls and those who were diagnosed over the age of
five. Additionally, convergence in the opinion of parents and teachers regarding the domain of behavior
was identified, but significant difference regarding the learning process. The results presented emphasize
the need for monitoring of ALL survivors, promoting interventions that ensure the full development of
these children and adolescents, ensuring the quality of life after the disease. |
