Este artigo focaliza o protagonismo infantil, desafios éticos e metodológicos no desenvolvimento de pesquisa com a participação de crianças da Educação Infantil. Como aporte teórico tem-se os estudos da sociologia da infância (CORSARO, 2011; SARMENTO, 2003; QVORTRUP, 2011), compreendendo a criança como ator social, historicamente situado, que nas interações com seus pares e com o contexto social produz culturas. Destaca-se a necessidade do pesquisador estar, constantemente, buscando estratégias éticas e metodológicas que possibilitem compreender o modo como as crianças narram, significam e recriam suas experiências junto aos pares, proporcionando visibilidade às culturas da infância, produzidas pelas diferentes formas de protagonismos infantis.Palavras-chave: Pesquisa com crianças. Culturas da infância. Protagonismo infantil.CHILDREN AS PROTAGONISTS, ETHICAL AND METHODOLOGICAL CHALLENGE IN RESEARCHINGABbstract: This article focuses on children acting as protagonists and on the ethical and methodological challenges during the development of the research that had the participation of kids from a Child Education School.

It is highlighted that the researcher needs to be constantly searching for ethical and methodological strategies to better understand how kids narrate, give meaning and recreate the experiences with their peers giving visibility to the cultures of childhood produced by their different acts as protagonists.Keywords: Research with children.

Purpose Previous research with children with and without disabilities has demonstrated that visual–perceptual factors can influence the speech of locating a target on an array. Adults without disabilities often facilitate the learning and use of a child's augmentative and alternative communication system. The current research examined how the presence of symbol background color influenced the speed with which adults without disabilities located target line drawings in 2 studies. Method Both studies used a between-subjects design. In the 1st study, 30 adults (ages 18–29 years) located targets in a 16-symbol array. In the 2nd study, 30 adults (ages 18–34 years) located targets in a 60-symbol array. There were 3 conditions in each study: symbol background color, symbol background white with a black border, and symbol background white with a color border. Results In the 1st study, reaction times across groups were not significantly different. In the 2nd study, participants in the symbol background color condition were significantly faster than participants in the other conditions, and participants in the symbol background white with black border were significantly slower than participants in the other conditions. Conclusion Communication partners may benefit from the presence of background color, especially when supporting children using displays with many symbols.

This poster presents a pilot study that analyzed a small corpus of informed consent forms used in research with children, adolescents, and adult early readers using Coh-Metrix, a readability measurement tool. Recommendations for increasing readability of consent forms in order to improve the informed consent process are also provided. Cette affiche présente une étude pilote qui a analysé un corpus restreint de formulaires de consentement éclairé utilisés dans la recherche avec les enfants, les adolescents et les lecteurs précoces adultes,  utilisant Coh-Metrix, un outil de mesure de la lisibilité. Nous fournissons également des recommandations pour augmenter la lisibilité des formulaires de consentement afin d'améliorer le processus de consentement éclairé.
