Resumo: An instrumentto evaluate concrete and abstract types of thinking was constructed and validated. The conducted as follows. 1) Selection of 104 proverbs commonly used in Brazil. 2) Evaluation of the familiarity and intelligibilityof the proverbs'words by a group of children. Proverbs not easily understood were excluded. 3) Evaluation of the proverbs'familiarity by ten adult judges. 4) Content validity of the instrument - three options of answer were defined for each proverb:concrete, abstract and irrelevant. Five judges evaluated these options as indicative of concrete or abstract thinking, or as notbeing related to the meaning of the proverbs. Only those alternatives with a high degree of agreement among the judges wereaccepted. 5) Analysis of the discriminam power and reliability - the instrument was administered to 195 children and teenagersbetween 8 and 15 years old. The statistical analysis revealed an instrument with high discriminant power and reliability.

O trabalho foi desenvolvido nas etapas que se seguem. 1) Arrolamento e seleção de 104 provérbios comumente usados em nosso meio. 2) Avaliação da familiaridade e inteligibilidade das palavras dos provérbios por um grupo de crianças. Os provérbios que apresentaram dificuldades de compreensão foram eliminados. 3) Avaliação da familiaridade dos provérbios por dez juizes adultos. 4) Análise da validade de conteúdo do instrumento. Para cada provérbio foram elaboradas três alternativas de resposta, concreta, abstrata e irrelevante. Cinco juizes avaliaram tais alternativas como indicativas de concretude ou abstração, ou como desligadas quer do sentido literal quer do sentido metafórico do provérbio. Apenas as alternativas que apresentaram um alto grau de concordância entre os juizes foram aceitas. 5) Análise do poder discriminativo e da precisão do instrumento, através de sua aplicação a 195 crianças e adolescentes entre 8 e 15 anos. A análise estatística revelou um instrumento com alto poder discriminativo e elevada precisão.Instituto de Psicologia - Universidade de Brasília2012-09-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unb.br/index.php/revistaptp/article/view/17215Psicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 11 No. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 11 Núm. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; Vol. 11 No. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisaPsicologia: Teoria e Pesquisa; v. 11 n. 1 (1995): Revista Psicologia: teoria e pesquisa1806-34460102-3772reponame:Psicologia (Universidade de Brasília.
