- Abstract
this research aimed to characterize the professional performance of Primary Health Care psychologists from the "Calixto García" Faculty of Medical Sciences, Havana, Cuba, in detecting warning signs of the autism spectrum. It was carried out with a quantitative, descriptive, cross-sectional methodology with 23 psychologists, using an interview, questionnaire, survey, and performance observation for empirical inquiries. The main results showed low professional performance of the sample in the topic addressed, low level of knowledge, difficulties in self-assessing their knowledge and performance, and personal qualities necessary for improving professional performance. These elements can be enhanced by participants' motivation and their responsibility and sense of belonging to the health sector. The need to use an alternative to Advanced Education to improve the professional performance of the participants is concluded.
