AMARAL, Anna Elisa Villemor et al. THE CHROMATIC FORMULA IN PFISTER’S COLORED PYRAMIDS TEST AMONG DIFFERENT AGE GROUPS. Psicol. rev. (Belo Horizonte) [online]. 2016, vol.22, n.2, pp.501-515. ISSN 1677-1168. https://doi.org/DOI-10.5752/P.1678-9523.2016V22N2P201.
The Pfister’s test is an expressive technique of psychological assessment that helps the understanding of the emotional and cognitive aspects. The chromatic formula reflects the emotional maturity so this work aimed to identify evidence of the validity of this indicator by comparing the results of people in different age groups. In order to do this, the protocols of 39 children of 6 year olds, 47 participants of 12 year olds and 73 college students were compared. It was observed that the frequency of children with a broad formula was significantly higher than the other groups (x2=23.418; p< 0.001) and moderate amplitude was more frequent in the college group (x2=17.712; p< 0.001). With concerns about stability in the choices, it was noted that the stable formula was more frequent in children (x2=17.152; p=0.001) and the unstable was significantly more frequent among the college students (x2=11.652; p=0.001). These results concludes that the Pfister contributes to differentiate emotional maturity levels according to age groups
