Abstract(s)
Enquadrada no âmbito do dilema “etic versus emic” (Spindler, 1975) aplicado à avaliação da inteligência, a presente investigação pretende averiguar as vantagens do uso de instrumentos culturalmente contextualizados (abordagem emic), sobre a utilização de instrumentos culturalmente transversais (abordagem etic), na avaliação cognitiva de crianças angolanas. Assim, apresenta-se a adaptação cultural e estudo experimental do Teste de Inteligência Fluida da Bateria de Inteligência para Crianças Angolanas 8-10 anos (TIF-BICA/8-10), que tem como base teórica o Modelo C-H-C (Cattell-Horn-Carroll). Foram observadas crianças de 8 a 10 anos de idade (N= 200), de ambos os sexos, oriundas da zona central e periférica de Luanda, com o objetivo de estudar as características metrológicas do teste. Os estudos metrológicos incluíram a análise da consistência interna; a análise de itens; e estudos de validação – fatorial, empírica e convergente (estes realizados através da correlação e comparação do TIF-BICA/8-10 com as Matrizes Progressivas Coloridas de Raven MPCR). Os resultados da presente investigação evidenciaram o bom funcionamento metrológico do TIF-BICA/8-10 (e.g.: consistência interna de .86, estrutura interna sugerindo a presença de um fator geral que explica a variabilidade dos resultados e correlação de .69, altamente significativa, com o teste de MPCR). Entretanto, os resultados são discutidos quanto às vantagens do uso do TIF-BICA/8-10 sobre a utilização do teste de MPCR na avaliação da inteligência de crianças angolanas
Framed within the scope of the “etic versus emic” dilemma (Spindler, 1975) applied to the assessment of intelligence, this research aims to investigate the advantages of using culturally contextualized instruments (emic´s approach), culturally transversal instruments (etic´s approach), in cognitive assessment of Angolan children. Thus, we present the cultural adaptation and experimental study of the Fluid Intelligence Test of the Intelligence Battery for Angolan Children aged 8 to 10 years (TIF-BICA/8-10), which has as theoretical basis the C-H-C Model (Cattell-Horn- Carroll). Children 8 to 10 years old (N = 200), of both sexes, from the central and peripheral zone of Luanda, were observed with the aim of studying the psychometric characteristics of the test. Metrological studies included the internal consistency; item analysis; and validation studies (factorial validation; empirical validation and convergent validation (the latter performed by correlating and comparing TIF-BICA/8-10 with Raven Colored Progressive Matrices CPM). The results showed good psychometric properties of the TIF-BICA/8-10 (e.g.: internal consistency of .86, internal structure suggesting the presence of a general factor which explains the variability of the results and a highly significant .69 correlation with the test CPM). The advantages of using TIF-BICA/8-10 over the CPM in the assessment of intelligence of Angolan children are also discussed.
