Creativity in the Severely Retarded*

Avaliaram-se os efeitos de um programa de criatividade em alunos da 2ª e 3ª séries de escola pública, com dificuldade de aprendizagem, por combinação de procedimentos tradicional e assistido, nas áreas acadêmica (Teste de Desempenho Escolar- TDE), cognitiva (WISC, Raven e Jogo de Perguntas de Busca com Figuras Diversas- PBFD) e da criatividade (Torrance Verbal e Figurativo). Pelo desempenho no TDE (inferior) e WISC (QI: 92), foi composta a amostra de 34 alunos (8-12 anos), dividida aleatoriamente em dois grupos, sendo G1 submetido a programa de criatividade por 3 meses. No pré-teste, não havia diferenças intergrupos significativas, exceto no Raven, com melhor desempenho de G2; diferença que desapareceu no pós-teste. Neste, houve diferença significativa para G1 no TDE. No PBFD, G1 manteve o desempenho após ajuda, com transferência de aprendizagem e aumentou o perfil alto-escore e transferidor; também melhorou em criatividade verbal (fluência e flexibilidade), enquanto G2 melhorou em flexibilidade.

Creative behavior of 20 normal, 20 educable, and 20 trainable mentally retarded adolescents of similar chronological ages was examined using a modified version of the Torrance Test of Creative Thinking. Analyses of variance indicated that educable mentally retarded and normal subjects did not differ significantly on any of Torrance's four creativity measures. However, statistical significance was evident for the trainable and nonretarded subjects and for the trainable and educable retardates. Results were discussed in terms of level of intelligence and other contributing variables.
