Resumo: The psychometrics has emphasized the role of intelligence in explaining individual differences (ID) in academic performance. The current paper questions this focus and investigates the predictive role of fluid intelligence (Gf) on developmental differences (DD) of school performance (DD). Data from 684 students from 6th to 12nd grades of a Belo Horizonte private school were analyzed. The IDs were measured through the equalization of annual Math, Portuguese, Geography and History grades. The DD were measured through the vertical scaling of Math and Portuguese grades of the elementary school students, and Math grades of the high school students. Gf was measured through the Ctif. A model via structural equation modeling was created, with Gf explaining the IDs and DDs. The model showed adequate data fit. The results indicate that Gf directly explains only the differences in development. Implications for the psychometric field will be discussed.

Este artículo cuestiona este enfoque y se investiga el papel predictivo de la inteligencia fluida (Gf) en las diferencias de desarrollo (DD) del rendimiento escolar (DD). Se analizaron datos de 684 estudiantes de sexto grado de primaria hasta el tercer año secundario de una escuela privada en Belo Horizonte. LoS DI se midieron a través de la igualación anual de notas en matemáticas, portugués, geografía e historia. El DD se mide por el procedimiento de vertical scaling de matemáticas y portugués de los años primarios, y matemáticas de los años de secundaria. Gf se midió por el Ctif. Se ha generado un modelo a través de modelos de ecuaciones estructurales con Gf a explicar los DIs y los DDs. El modelo mostró un grado adecuado de ajuste a los datos. Los resultados indican que Gf directamente sólo explica las diferencias de desarrollo. Se discuten las implicaciones para el campo psicométrico.A psicometria tem enfatizado o papel da inteligência na explicação das diferenças individuais do rendimento escolar (DI). Este artigo questiona este foco e investiga o papel preditivo da inteligência fluida (Gf) sobre as diferenças de desenvolvimento do rendimento escolar (DD). São analisados dados de 684 estudantes do sexto ano do ensino fundamental ao terceiro ano do ensino médio de uma escola particular de Belo Horizonte. As DIs foram medidas via equalização das notas anuais em matemática, português, geografia e história. As DD foram mensuradas pelo “vertical scaling”, em matemática e português no ensino fundamental e matemática no ensino médio. Gf foi medida através do CTIF. Um modelo via modelagem por equação estrutural foi gerado, com Gf explicando as DIs e DD. O modelo apresentou adequado grau de ajuste aos dados. Os resultados indicam que Gf explica diretamente apenas as diferenças de desenvolvimento. Implicações são discutidas para o campo psicométrico.
