“…In this context, the realization of phonological variant of the verbal fluency test is more closely related to the maturation of the frontal lobe of the cerebral cortex. This region is developed intensively between six and eight years, starting its myelination at about twelve months and reaching its apex of neurological maturity at around 20 years of age (Fuentes, Malloy--Diniz, Camargo, & Cosenza., 2008;Papazian, Alfonso, & Luzondo, 2006). Based on evidence from functional imaging, it is considered that there are five periods of rapid growth in the frontal lobes that result in increasing the number of connections thereto.…”

Performance of Children in Phonemic and Semantic Verbal Fluency Tasks

This study investigated the performance of children from the Brazilian Northeast region, from 7 to 10 years in phonemic and semantic verbal fluency tasks. The participants were 102 subjects (62 girls and 40 boys) who performed three phonemic and three semantic fluency tasks. The results were submitted to correlational and variance analysis to investigate the influence of the variables age and gender on the subjects performance. There was no effect of gender on the results. Significant contrasts between age groups were found, and better performance was observed on phonemic tasks. Also, the performance in this task changed along development, in contrast to what happened with the semantic fluency. The findings seem to be in accordance to neurodevelopmental aspects, taken into account that explicit memory systems show more precocious maturational course, with earlier consolidation, in comparison to the executive functions and frontal lobes, which go on developing until adult ages.

“…Con relación al planeamiento de la respuesta, que es el tópico central de este trabajo, Papazian et al [40] refieren que se trata de un proceso mental que depende de la edad con capacidad limitada para prever o anticipar el resultado de la respuesta a fin de solucionar un problema. Su sustrato anatómico es la corteza [9,41].…”

“…Planning is a cognitive ability that involves anticipating the result of a response, which in turn involves considering different courses of action and choosing that which is most pertinent considering the consequences of the possible actions (Tirapu-Ustárroz, Muñoz-Céspedes, Pelegrín-Valero, & Albéniz-Ferreras, 2005). Consequently, this generates additional demands on the processes of inhibition (since it involves the selection of one alternative and the inhibition of others) and working memory (since it requires the proper functioning of operational memory in general and the ability to maintain attention (Papazian, Alfonso, & Luzondo, 2006;Soprano, 2003), and more specifically the central executive system, involving a more complex step than these processes individually (Tirapu-Ustárroz et al, 2005). Por estos motivos es considerada una FE de orden superior, being synonymous of the subcomponents of reasoning and problem solving of the FE (Diamond, 2013).…”

Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze which aspects of the Rey Complex Figure Test are more sensitive to the Executive Functions in children and adolescents. Methodology: The study employed a non-experimental cross-sectional design, of retrospective ex-post facto type with one group. The study worked with a purposive sample of 97 children and adolescents between the ages of 8 and 14. To meet the study's objectives, researchers administered the Rey Complex Figure Test, the Mexican Pyramids and Backwards Digit Span subtests of the ENI Battery, the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test and the Stroop Test. Results: significant correlations were found between the Rey Complex Figure Test and executive functions performance. Conclusions: there is evidence that the Rey Complex Figure Test is a measure that, in addition to measuring visuoconstructional abilities and visual memory, provides information about executive performance of children and adolescents linked to the functions of cognitive flexibility, organization and working memory.
