Abstract

This study is looking for evidences of reliability, for the Qualification Qualitative System (Brannigan y Brunner, 2002) applied to the Bender Gestaltic Test – Modified. The participants were 86 children, divided in two groups: pre- school and school; and three students who scored the designs in both groups. The analisis was done in the final grade and the item. The results pointed to the good levels of results of external reliability and internal consistence in the pre- school group, while these levels were scored in the school group. These differences establish the relation between these two aspects of measurement error and the emphasis in an appropriate training of measurements that require the examiner’s judgments. We discussed our results considering the potential utility of this relative version of the Bender Gestaltic Test for the clinical practice and investigation as well.
