Resumen
La presente investigación busca determinar la relación entre las funciones ejecutivas:
memoria de trabajo, flexibilidad cognitiva y control inhibitorio, con la competencia
matemática en niños de tercer grado de primaria de dos instituciones educativas de Lima
Metropolitana, 2023. Este estudio corresponde a un enfoque cuantitativo, de diseño no
experimental y transversal y de tipo correlacional y descriptivo. La muestra estuvo
compuesta por 102 niños de tercer grado de primaria de dos instituciones educativas, una
de gestión pública y otra privada. Para este estudio, se emplearon dos instrumentos para
la evaluación de la muestra: Las escalas de memoria de trabajo, flexibilidad cognitiva y
control inhibitorio de la Evaluación conductual de la función ejecutiva (BRIEF-2) de Gioia,
Isquith, Guy y Kenworthy y la prueba EVAMAT 3 de García, García, Jiménez y González.
En la investigación se verifica una adecuada validez de contenido por juicios de expertos y
una adecuada consistencia interna. Se identificó que existe una relación negativa y
significativa entre las funciones ejecutivas memoria de trabajo y flexibilidad cognitiva con
la competencia matemática (p<0,01), mas no se registró relación significativa entre el
control inhibitorio y la competencia matemática (p>0,05). Además, se halló que existen
diferencias significativas en la competencia matemática en función de las variables gestión
educativa y sexo, mientras que no se encontraron diferencias en las funciones ejecutivas
de acuerdo con las variables de control.
The present research seeks to determine the relationship between executive functions: working memory, cognitive flexibility and inhibitory control, with mathematical competence in third grade elementary school children from two educational institutions in Lima Metropolitana, 2023. This study corresponds to a quantitative, non-experimental, crosssectional, correlational and descriptive approach. The sample consisted of 102 children in third grade of primary school from two educational institutions, one public and one private. For this study, two instruments were used to evaluate the sample: the working memory, cognitive flexibility and inhibitory control scales of the Behavioral Assessment of Executive Function (BRIEF-2) by Gioia, Isquith, Guy and Kenworthy and the EVAMAT 3 test by García, García, Jiménez and González. The research verifies an adequate content validity by expert judgments and an adequate internal consistency. It was identified that there is a negative and significant relationship between the executive functions working memory and cognitive flexibility with mathematical competence (p<0.01), but no significant relationship was recorded between inhibitory control and mathematical competence (p>0.05). In addition, it was found that there were significant differences in mathematical competence according to the variables educational management and sex, while no differences were found in executive functions according to the control variables.
