Resumo: The present research evaluates the dimension of Neuroticism in school children using a multi-source design that includes self-report, parents’ and teachers’ reports, semi-structured interview and behavior observation. Specifically, the study intended to verify the agreement level in evaluation of Neuroticism from different sources of information. The sample [N= 368] “Estudo Longitudinal de Avaliação das Competências Psicológicas das Crianças do Centro Pedagógico/Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais”.Two self-report scales were used to select children with hight and low Neuroticism - Big Five Questionnaire for Children and Eysenck Personality Questionnaire - Junior. A sub sample of 68 children was submitted to a multi-source assessment. The results demonstratedmoderate correlations between both Neuroticism scales used. There was not any significant association among parents’ and teachers’ reports when they evaluated Neuroticism, but were found positive associations between self-report and multi-source assessment. Behavioral observations were not useful in the measurement of traits. The reasons of these results are discussed. To sum-up, this research brought upimportant contributions to the personality literature, regarding the Neuroticism multi-source assessment in Brazilian children.

Especificamente, objetiva identificar o grau de concordância na avaliação de neuroticismo entre as várias fontes de informação utilizadas. A amostra [N=368] constitui parte do "Estudo Longitudinal de Avaliação das Competências Psicológicas das Crianças do Centro Pedagógico/Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais". Na seleção de crianças com alto e baixo neuroticismo, utilizaram-se os resultados em duas escalas de autorrelato - Big Five Questionnaire for Children e o Eysenck Personality Questionnaire - Junior. Logo, uma subamostra de 68 crianças foi submetida à avaliação multi-informe. Os resultados mostraram correlação moderada entre as escalas neuroticismo dos instrumentos de autorrelato. Não houve associação significativa entre o relato de pais e o de professores quando avaliaram neuroticismo, mas sim associações positivas entre o autorrelato e as avaliações multi-informes. As observações comportamentais não se mostraram úteis na mensuração dos traços e as razões para tais resultados são discutidas. Conclui-se que o presente estudo trouxe importantes contribuições para a literatura da área no que se refere à avaliação multi-informe do neuroticismo em crianças brasileiras.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2010-09-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7152Psychological Studies; Vol. 27 No. 3 (2010): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 27 Núm. 3 (2010): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 27 n. 3 (2010): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7152/4716Copyright (c) 2022 Marcela MANSUR-ALVES, Carmen FLORES-MENDOZA, Francisco José ABADhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMANSUR-ALVES, Marcela FLORES-MENDOZA, Carmen ABAD, Francisco José 2024-04-25T19:15:35Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7152Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2024-04-25T19:15:35Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
