Evidências de validade das escalas de saúde mental e psicopatologia relacionados ao teste das Pirâmides Coloridas de Pfister (TPC).

Abstract

This study sought evidence of the validity of mental health and psychopathology scales based on indicators from the Pfister Colored Pyramid Test (CPT). Through a quantitative approach, correlations between psychological variables such as anxiety, depression, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and resilience were analyzed. The results suggest that the CPT is effective in identifying specific aspects of psychopathology and emotional well-being, especially in relation to PTSD and resilience, while anxiety and depression presented more complex and less evident relationships with the test indicators. These findings reinforce the potential of the CPT as a complementary tool for psychological assessment, although they highlight the need for further studies.
