Resumo: | This study evaluated the accuracy of the at-risk/not-at-risk classifications of reading and writing difficulties of different measures of Phonological Awareness (PA). A total of 213 Brazilian children performed six PA tasks (varying in phonological unit and cognitive demand) when they were in kindergarten. One year later, 176 of those children performed a writing task and 174 performed a reading task. Receiver Operating Characteristic curves were constructed based on the scores of the reading and writing tasks. The results indicated that the full set of PA tasks presented the best area under the curve. However, two PA measures with fewer items, supra-phonemic awareness and phonemic awareness, also presented adequate sensitivity and specificity values for screening purposes. These results are encouraging since those measures could be used to detect children at risk of reading and writing difficulties in kindergarten (about one year before formal reading and writing instruction in Brazil). |

Un total de 213 niños brasileños realizaron seis tareas de CF (variando en unidad fonológica y demanda cognitiva) cuando estaban en el jardín de infancia. Un año después, 176 de esos niños realizaron una tarea de escritura y 174 realizaron una tarea de lectura. Las curvas de las Características Operativas del Receptor se construyeron con base en las puntuaciones de las tareas de lectura y escritura. Los resultados indicaron que el total de tareas de CF presentaba la mejor área bajo la curva. Sin embargo, la conciencia supra-fonemas y la conciencia de fonemas, también presentaron valores adecuados de sensibilidad y especificidad. Estos resultados son alentadores ya que esas medidas podrían usarse para detectar a los niños en riesgo de dificultades de lectura y escritura.Esse estudo avaliou a acurácia de diferentes medidas de Consciência Fonológica (CF) em predizer o risco para dificuldades de leitura e escrita. No último ano da educação infantil, 213 crianças brasileiras foram avaliadas em 6 tarefas de CF. Um ano depois, 174 dessas crianças realizaram uma tarefa de leitura e 176 realizaram uma tarefa de escrita. Curvas de Característica Operacional do Receptor foram construídas com base nos escores de leitura e escrita. O escore total em todas as tarefas de CF apresentou a maior área sob a curva. No entanto, duas medidas de CF compostas por menos itens, consciência supra-fonêmica e consciência fonêmica, apresentaram sensibilidade e especificidade adequadas. Esses resultados são encorajadores já que essas tarefas podem ser utilizadas para rastrear, com um ano de antecedência do ensino formal da leitura e escrita, crianças em risco de desenvolverem dificuldades nessas habilidades.Editora Mackenzie2021-10-22info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionAPapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/1379110.5935/1980-6906/ePTPPA13791The Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 23 No. 3 (2021); ePTPPA13791Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 23 Núm. 3 (2021); ePTPPA13791Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 23 n. 3 (2021); ePTPPA137911980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
