GRAZZIOTIN, Jucelaine Bier Di Domenico and SCORTEGAGNA, Silvana Alba. Literature review of Brazilian research about the Zulliger Z Test. Aval. psicol. [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.2, pp.227-235. ISSN 1677-0471.
A choice of psychological tools that can provide reliable data on an individual’s psychological functioning and the suffering to which one has been exposed is an indispensable ethical condition for professional practice. In light of this assumption, this study aimed to verify the use of the Zulliger Z Test in the Brazilian context, considering the purposes of the investigation and the different age groups, between 2004 and 2014. Through the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses method (PRISMA), we found 15 articles related to standardization studies, validity and accuracy, with the use of Zulliger in the Comprehensive System (73%), with adults (80%), children (20%), and the elderly (13%). The results show that although the number of publications has expanded, there is little research work using the instrument, especially with children and elderly, which should be encouraged
