In order to reduce barriers to talent identificationhas been increasing a growing demand for trained teachers and valid measurement instruments. Given this context, this study aimed to identify creative and intellectual talent in the classroom from three instruments: Evaluation Battery Intelligence and Creativity - Children's version (BAICI), in validation process; Non Verbal Child Reasoning Test (TNVRI) already validated in Brazil, and their perception of teachers obtained from the scale entitled Talent Identification by Professor (ITP). Four studies were proposed: 1. The development of the Talent Identification scale by the teacher; 2. Identification of intellectual and creative talents by the Professor; 3. Identification of creative and intellectual talents by psychological tests, and finally, 4. Evidence of validity by way of external criterion between the Battery (BAICI) and the Teste (TNVRI), and between Battery (BAICI) and the scale (ITP). The study sample was composed of four judges, 10 professors and 120 students from the 4th and 5th year of elementary school, two private schools in the metropolitan region of Campinas, SP. The age of participants ranged from 9 to 10 years of which 62 were females and 58 males. The results for each study were as follows: 1. The coefficient of Content Validity (CVC) of ITP instrument was 0.82, considered positive. 2. The teacher seems to notice more female talent for the highest averages in all areas. However, the hypothesis of gender equality should be rejected only for the Memory subscale in ITP. 3. Gender was not significant in any subtest of BAICI including verbal and figural creative skills. The same was found with TNVRI reinforcing the hypothesis of absence of significant cognitive gender differences. 4. There was correlation between the various subtests of BAICI. The highest of these was between the visual memory subtest and overall cognitive index. As to the evidence of validity by way of external criterion between BAICI and TNVRI, it was noticed a significant correlation between subtest only for the fast thinking. The values of Cronbach's alpha were 0.83 and 0.75 for the ITP and BAICI, demonstrating the accuracy of results. Students who scored above average in psychological instruments were identified through a qualitative - comparative analysis of students, but these same students were not identified by their teachers. We conclude that education should pay attention to the training of teachers so that they understand the different abilities present in the classroom and promote actions aimed at its development from varied and combined procedures. / O processo deidentificacao do talento/superdotacao com vistas ao atendimento educacional exigeconhecimento e recursos apropriados. Tem sido cada vez maior a demanda por professores capacitados e instrumentos validos de medida a fim de diminuir os obstaculos que impedem a identificacao do talento. Diante deste contexto, este estudo objetivou identificar talentos criativos e intelectuais na sala de aula a partir de tres instrumentos: Bateria de Avaliacao da Inteligencia e Criatividade forma Infantil (BAICI), em processo de validacao; Teste Nao Verbal de Raciocinio Infantil (TNVRI), ja validado no Brasil; e a percepcao dos professores obtida a partir da escala intitulada Identificacao de Talentos pelo Professor (ITP). Quatro Estudos foram propostos: 1. Elaboracao da escala Identificacao de Talentos pelo professor; 2. Identificacao de talentos intelectuais e criativos pelo professor; 3. Identificacao de talentos criativos e intelectuais por testes psicologicos; e finalmente,4. Evidencias de validade por forma de criterio externo entre BAICI e TNVRI, e entre BAICI e ITP. A amostra do estudo foi composta por quatro juizes avaliadores, 10 professorese 120 estudantes do 4.o e 5.o anos do Ensino Fundamentalde duas escolas particulares da regiao metropolitana de Campinas SP. A idade dos participantes variou dos 9 aos 10 anos dos quais 62 eram do genero feminino e 58masculino. Os resultados referentes a cada estudo foram os seguintes: 1. O Coeficiente de Validade do Conteudo (CVC) do instrumento ITP foi de 0,82, considerado positivo. 2. Oprofessor parece perceber mais o talento feminino pelas medias mais altasem todas as areas. No entanto, a hipotese de igualdade de genero deve ser rejeitada apenas para a subescala Memoria no ITP. 3. O genero nao se mostrou significativo em nenhum subteste da BAICI, incluindo as habilidades criativas verbais e figurais. O mesmo foi verificado com o TNVRI reforcando a hipotese de nao existencia de diferenca cognitiva significativa entre os generos. 4. Houve diversas correlacao entre os subtestes da BAICI. A mais alta delas foi entre o subteste memoria visual e indice cognitivo total. Quanto as evidencias de validade por forma de criterio externo entre BAICI e TNVRI, percebeu-se haver correlacao significativa somente entre o subteste rapidez de raciocinio. Os valores de alfa de Cronbach foram 0,83 e 0,75 para o ITP e BAICI, demonstrando a precisao dos resultados encontrados. Atraves de uma analise qualitativa/comparativa foram identificados estudantes que pontuaram acima da media nos instrumentos psicologicos, porem nao identificados por seus professores. Conclui-se que a educacao deve atentar para a capacitacao de professores a fim de que estes conhecam as diferentes habilidades presentes na sala de aulas e promovam acoes dirigidas para seu desenvolvimento a partir de procedimentos variados e combinados.
