<jats:p>Resumo O desenho da figura humana (DFH) é uma das formas mais utilizadas para avaliar o desenvolvimento intelectual infantil. Este estudo investigou as evidências da validade e precisão do sistema Wechsler de correção do DFH para as crianças da Madeira. A amostra incluiu 489 crianças (49% meninas), com entre 5 e 13 anos de idade, de escolas do 1º e 2º ciclos do sistema educativo. Os instrumentos foram: DFH, teste de Matrizes Progressivas Coloridas de Raven (MPCR) e notas escolares (Português e Matemática). Existem diferenças por idade, sexo e da figura desenhada. As correlações entre DFH, MPCR e notas escolares foram significativas. A precisão foi satisfatória (>0,80). Concluindo, este teste DFH possui evidências de validade e precisão, indicando a possibilidade de utilização após obtenção de normas portuguesas.</jats:p>
Human figure drawing (DFH) is one of the most used ways to assess children’s intellectual development. This study investigated the evidence for the validity and accuracy of the Wechsler DFH correction system for children on Madeira Island. The sample included 489 children (49% girls); 5-13 years old from elementary schools of the Portuguese educational system. The instruments were the DFH, Raven Colored Progressive Matrices (CPM) test, and school grades (Portuguese and Mathematics). There are differences in age, sex, and the figure drawn. Correlations between DFH, CPM, and school grades were significant. Precision was satisfactory (> .80). In conclusion, this DFH test has evidence of validity and precision indicating the possibility of use after obtaining Portuguese standards.
