RESUMO

This current research had a major main to investigate the existing relations between the thought flexibility and the creativity, shown during the procedures of problems solution, having as subjects 307 6 , 7 and 8" grades students of a municipal public school in the region of Campinas, Sao Paulo. These subjects answered a questionnaire for their characterization and did a Mathematics test. From the obtained results in the Mathematics test, it was selected the student with the best performance in each grade, which were subjected to the Rorschach s test and to an arithmeticai, algebraic and geometric battery tests with the objective of investigating the thought flexibility, component of mathematic ability. The average grade in the Mathematics test was 0,6263 with a pattern deflection 1,0193 to the 6 grads, 0,4555 with a pattern deflection 1,1144 to the 7" grade and 2,0072 with pattern deflection 1,8672 to the 8 grade, being the minimum grade zero and the maximum 8,35. The data analyze showed the changeable age, grade, mother s scholarship, receiving help in homeworks, daily study hours, problems understanding in the classroom, preferred subject, subject liked least, subject that would be taken out of school were related to the subjects grades in the Mathematics test. The protocol enaiysis caiied as most capable showed the sixth and seventh grade weren t able to solve the proposed problems and the eighth grade subject with some experimenter s hop, solved the problems, however the Rorschach s test showed creative personality characteristic in the three subjects. These solutions showed the mathematic ability component, thought tlexibiiity and accordingly creativity characteristics.
