A Manova wa s also applied to evaluate sex and grade differences. The sample was composed of 96 students, in which 49 were female, with 6th grade ( n=15), 7th grade (n=12), 8th grade (n=49) students and 2nd year (n=2 0) students from a public school in the state of São Paulo, aged betwe en 10 and 18 (M = 13.4 years, SD = 1.8). The participants answered the Rav en Progressive Matrices Test (general scale) and reasoning subtests that be long to the Battery for Giftedness Assessment (BAHA/G). The results from Pe arson’s correlation indicated convergence as the majority of the factor s composed in BAHA/G showed positive and significant correlations with t he Raven test factors, and the CFA displayed two latent variables with strong correlations, particularly among their total score (r=.976). With these result s, we found the moderate relationship between these instruments. Further stu dies are recommended on other types of validity evidence of these subtes ts to confirm its psychometric qualities. 2017 artículo científico 1808-4281 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=451855912021 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=4518 Estudos e Pesquisas em Psicologia application/pdf Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro Estudos e Pesquisas em Psicologia (Brasil) Num.1 Vol.17 |
