We aim to analyze the reliability of the Portuguese version of the Classification System for Personal Constructs - CSPC (Feixas, Geldschläger & Neimeyer, 2002). That is a system of 53 content categories divided into six basic areas (moral, emotional, relational, personal, intellectual/operational, and values/interests) and two supplemental areas (existential and concrete descriptors). In this study, we adapt to Portuguese language the CSPC, using a sample of 448 constructs extracted from 32 repertory grids, and we analyze the reliability of this classification system. The degree of agreement achieved was excellent. Our findings are similar to those found by the versions of the CSPC in other languages, which demonstrates the reliability of the Portuguese version of the CSPC.
