NORONHA, Ana Paula Porto; BARROS, Mariana Varandas de Camargo  e  NUNES, Maiana Farias Oliveira. Intelligence and vocational interests correlations with adolescents. Psicol. teor. prat. [online]. 2009, vol.11, n.2, pp.114-128. ISSN 1516-3687.

This study investigated the association between professional interests and intelligence with adolescents, and also differences at these constructs regarding participant’s gender. 211 students took part on this study, from a private school located at Paraná. Students attended to the three grades of High School, most of them were women (58.3%), mean age 16.5 years old. Two tests were used: Escala de Aconselhamento Profissional (EAP) and Bateria de Provas de Raciocínio (BPR-5), both constructed and with validity evidences from Brazil. Results showed few and low significant correlations between the constructs, suggesting divergence between them. There were significant differences regarding five from seven interests areas accessed and at spatial and numerical intelligence. Results are discussed in terms of the possibilities of using this information in vocational guidance with teenagers.
