Abstract

The study proposes an analysis of selective attention in a population of students between 7 and 8 years old, for the evaluation process the stroop test has been used, the proposed activity is important for their learning process because they are training and neurological development; The study proposes a population of 246 students from various educational units of the Puyo canton, Ecuador; obtaining results: 184 (74,79%) students had a positive score equivalent to “Normal attention”, said students have adequately inhibited the automatic response found in the reagent; and on the other hand, 62 (25,21%) students obtain negative evaluations, which means that they have “attention deficit” due to different factors specific to each one that will be analyzed later.
