    Objetivo: El presente trabajo tuvo como objetivo establecer baremos para el TTCT Figuras Formas A y B en niños escolarizados, con el fin de poder utilizar el instrumento con propósitos diagnósticos y en ambientes educativos.

    Método: Se realizaron dos estudios, en el estudio 1, se administró la Forma A del TTCT Figuras a 859 niños de ambos sexos, escolarizados, de entre 8 y 13 años. En el estudio 2, se aplicó la Forma B de la prueba de Figuras a 739 niños de ambos sexos, de entre 6 y 13 años. En ambos estudios, para analizar el efecto de la edad, el sexo y su interacción se empleó MANOVA.

    Resultados: Los estudios 1 y 2 mostraron un efecto significativo de la edad y del sexo, pero no de la interacción edad x sexo en los puntajes del TTCT. Se calcularon los valores normativos por sexo y por edad.

    Conclusiones: Los baremos para el TTCT Figuras Forma A y B, que se establecen por primera vez en Argentina para niños, pueden ser de utilidad para la evaluación de la creatividad y la detección de las habilidades creativas en estudiantes.

    Objective: The present study aims to develop normative data for the TTCT Figural Form-A and Form-B in school-age children, to employ the instrument for diagnostic purposes and in educational settings.

    Method: To this end, we conducted two empirical studies. In study 1, the Figural TTCT-Form A was administered to 859 school children of both sexes, between 8 and 13 years old. In Study 2, the Figural TTCT-Form B was administered to 739 children of both sexes aged 6 to 13 years. For both studies, MANOVA was performed to analyze the effect of age, sex, and their interaction.

    Results: Studies 1 and 2 showed a significant effect of age and sex, but not for the interaction between age x sex on TTCT scores. Normative values were computed according to sex and age.

    Conclusion: Our normative data for the Figural TTCT-Form A and B, which were established for the first time for Argentinean children, can be useful for the assessment of creativity and the recognition of creative abilities in students
