RESTREPO, Jorge Emiro et al. Developmental relationships between visuospatial working memory and cognitive planning in healthy people with normal intelligence aged between 10 and 30 years. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2017, vol.13, n.2, pp.229-240. ISSN 1794-9998. https://doi.org/10.15332/s1794-9998.2017.0002.07.
The article presents the results of a correlational empirical research on the developmental relationships between visuospatial working memory and cognitive planning in a group of 100 healthy people with normal intelligence with ages between 10 and 30 years. The Corsi block test, from the Wechsler Memory Scale III, and the Tower of London were applied. Correlation analyzes for the full range (10-30) demonstrated the existence of a statistically significant correlation (0.43, p-value <0.001). In the three age statistically significant correlations (p value <0.008) were also found: 0.44 for the range 10-15; 0.28 for the range 16-20; and 0.32 for 21-30 range. No increase in executive functioning associated with age was found, although the theory and empirical evidence prove it. Possible explanations for the results are described and discussed.
