  Esse estudo visa a adaptação brasileira do Teste de Figuras Complexas de Rey - A, que avalia percepção visual e a memória imediata. Compuseram a amostra 501 sujeitos de ambos os sexos, com idades entre 5 e 65 anos. Na análise de consistência interna o coeficiente de alfa de Cronbach foi 0,86 para cópia e 0,81 para a memória. A fidedignidade foi verificada pelo método teste-reteste obtendo-se um coeficiente linear de Pearson de 0,76. Na avaliação inter-juizes houve concordância em todos os itens. Para a validade convergente relacionaram-se o Rey, dos sujeitos com idades até 15 anos, com os subtestes Dígitos e Aritmética do WISC III. Concluiu-se que o Rey avalia a percepção visual e a memória imediata de forma precisa.

  The objective of this paper is the validation of the Rey´s Figures Complex- Form A for the Brazilian population. This instrument has the objective to evaluate the visual perception and immediate memory. It was administered to 501 males and females, between 5 and 65 years of age. Cronbach's Alpha was used to evaluate the internal consistency which was .86 for copy and .81 for memory. Reliability was also assessed by test-retest and a Pearson's coefficient of .76 was obtained. There was inter-judges agreement in all items. Convergent validity was assessed by correlating Arithmetic and Digits (WISC III) with the the Rey's Figures Complex scores. The conclusion was that the Rey's Figures Complex, assessment of visual perception and immediate memory was adequate.
