Resumo

The aim of this article is to analyse the degree of agreement and convergence between two different measures of intelligence at identifying students with low, average and high intelligence. These measures are: Aurora-a Battery, a cognitive assessment based on Robert J. Sternberg`s theory of Successful Intelligence; and Cattell¿s factor "g", based on a mono-factorial model of intelligence. In addition, differences on successful intelligence are analysed depending on students IQ level measured by factor "g" test. A sample size of 431 students ranging in age from 8-15 years old attending eight different schools in Murcia Region (Spain) took part in this research. The selection of participants followed and incidental design. Two measure instruments were used: a) Aurora-a Battery, which aims is to assess and recognize different abilities (analytical, practical, and creative) on different types of representation (figurative, numerical and verbal content); and b) Cattell¿s factor g, which aims is to assess fluid intelligence by means of non-verbal tasks. The results point out that there some level of agreement between both procedures at analysing cognitive functioning of students with low, average and low intelligence. In addition, IQ shows stronger correlations with practical and analytical abilities and with verbal and figurative content tasks and weaker correlations with creative ability and numerical content. This procedure allows understanding the cognitive resources management of students with high abilities on synthetic, practical and analytical intelligence. Emphasis is on the use of new resources to generate new ideas, create imaginative stories, solve problems in unusual ways, discover new connexions, as well as in the application of knowledge to solve both schools and everyday life problems, aspects rarely considered by traditional intelligence and standardized intelligence tests.
