Abstract
El objetivo de este estudio fue comparar el papel de la inteli-
gencia emocional en la flexibilidad cognitiva de niños con y sin trastorno
por déficit de atención e hiperactividad (TDAH). Los participantes fueron
20 niños (edad promedio = 10.25, DT = 2.12) con TDAH y 30 niños
normales (edad promedio = 10.96, DT = 1.32) que todos eran niños. To-
dos los participantes completaron el Cuestionario de inteligencia emocional
(Schutte et al., 1998) y la prueba clásica de Stroop, como una medida de la
flexibilidad cognitiva. Los niños con TDAH se desempeñaron peor en
ambas medidas que los niños sin TDAH. Y predictores de inteligencia
emocional de la flexibilidad cognitiva en dos grupos. En general, en niños
con déficit de atención - trastorno de hiperactividad hay bajo rendimiento
de inteligencia emocional y flexibilidad cognitiva.
The aim of this study was to compare role of emotional intelli- gence in cognitive flexibility of children with and without Attention Defi- cit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Participants were 20 children (mean age = 10.25, SD = 2.12) with ADHD and 30 normal children (mean age = 10.96, SD = 1.32) that all of they were boy. All participants completed the Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (Schutte et al., 1998) and the classic Stroop test, as a measure of cognitive flexibility. ADHD children per- formed poorer on both measures than non-ADHD children. And emo- tional intelligence predictors of cognitive flexibility in two groups. Overall, in children with attention deficit – hyperactivity disorder there are low performance of emotional intelligence and cognitive flexibility.
