Neuropsychomotor Development (DNPM) is described as the integration of
nervous, motor and sensorial system, influenced by hereditary factors and
environmental. Screening and development monitoring
DNPM is of paramount importance, as it assists in the detection of possible injuries in the
development and monitors the child's developmental milestones, as well as the
relationship with risk factors. This research aimed to investigate the relationship between
the quality of the family environment, the biopsychosocial characteristics of the child and
family and the neuropsychomotor development of children in an Education Unit
Children's (UEI). In this sense, the research was carried out with 19 children from a UEI in
municipality of Belém do Pará, through evaluation instruments such as Test
Denver II, from the Child Characteristics Questionnaire (QCC), Critério Brasil,
Family Poverty Index (IPF) and Affordances in the Home questionnaire
Environment for Motor Development Infant Scale (AHEND). In the QCC, the variables
that showed statistical significance were married parents (p=0.03), profession of
father (p=0.05) and monthly income (p=0.02). With regard to the family environment, variables
such as: poor external space, few materials for fine and gross motor skills, as well
how the variety of unsatisfactory stimuli also influenced the
development suspected of delay. The results point to
need for more effective public policies in early childhood and actions
aimed at early stimulation in the family environment.
