<p>There is little consensus on the relationship between intelligence and creativity. This study aimed to investigate the associations between these constructs considering the importance that creativity has for positive psychology. Two studies were conducted using two test batteries: the first with 876 children and adolescents (55% female) using the Battery for Assessment of High Abilities/Giftedness and the second with 285 adolescents (54% female) with the Battery for Assessing Intelligence and Creativity. The results were analyzed by exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis and indicated that intelligence and figural and verbal creativity are independent factors, with little correlation between figural creativity and intelligence and a moderate relationship between verbal creativity and intelligence. In conclusion, it is necessary to evaluate both intelligence and the different types of creativity considering their contributions for identifying human potential and their influence on wellness.</p>
Existe a necessidade de testes psicológicos que avaliem a inteligencia e a criatividade de forma integrada. O objetivo deste estudo foi investigar as evidências de validade da Bateria de Avaliação Intelectual e Criativa para Adultos (BAICA). Participaram deste estudo 99 estudantes (51 mulheres), com idades entre 15 e 17 anos. A BAICA é composta por cinco subtestes cognitivos e um criativo. Os testes utilizados como critérios externos foram: Bateria de Provas de Raciocínio (BPR-5), Testes de Atenção Dividida e Alternada (TEADI e TEALT) e os Testes de Criatividade de Torrance. Os resultados apresentaram correlações significativas (p≤.05) entre os subtestes cognitivos da BAICA e os testes de inteligência (.28 a .52) e criatividade (.26 a .54). Concluiu-se que a BAICA é uma medida válida para avaliar a inteligência e criatividade. Palavras-chave: avaliação psicológica, evidências de validade, inteligência, criatividade. Evaluación integrada de la inteligencia y creatividad Frente a la necesidad de herramientas psicológicas que evalúen el funcionamiento cognitivo de forma integrada, hemos investigado la validez de la Batería de Evaluación Intelectual y Creativa-Adulto (BAICA). Participaron 99 estudiantes (51 mujeres), con edades entre 15 y 17 años. La BAICA consta de cinco subpruebas cognitivas y una creativa. Las pruebas que se utilizaron como criterios externos fueron: Batería de Pruebas de Razonamiento (BPR-5), Prueba de Atención Dividida (TEADI) y Alternada (TEALT) y las Pruebas de Torrance. Los resultados mostraron correlaciones significativas (p≤.05) entre las subpruebas cognitivas de BAICA con las pruebas de inteligencia (.28 a .52) y creatividad (.26 a la .54). Se concluyó que la BAICA es una medida válida para evaluar la inteligencia y creatividad. Palabras clave: evaluación psicológica, validez, inteligencia, creatividad.
