摘要

本研究探讨儿童学习成绩与其认知功能测试结果之间的关系。传统上,认知测试分数通常反映整体准确性或速度。然而,这些总体得分往往受到不同的执行功能(EF)和非EF认知过程的影响。为了分离特定的认知功能,已经开发了替代评分方法,其目的是更纯粹地测量一种认知功能。我们调查了将传统总分与声称衡量策略使用的替代分数相结合是否能改善对儿童学业成绩的预测。研究人员对132名荷兰语儿童(年龄9.48-12.63岁;61个女孩)。对于每个测试,我们计算传统总分和替代分数。学业成绩是通过算术和阅读测试以及中学的建议来评估的。研究结果表明,传统和另类分数都与中学建议和孩子的算术和阅读表现呈正相关,但与父母的报告无关。结合传统和替代分数提高预测精度只有算术结果。然而,一旦控制了智商,专注于策略使用的替代分数的预测价值就会降低。因此,我们的研究结果表明,结合两种评分方法可以提供更好的学业成绩预测,至少在算术方面,强调他们在精神诊断评估中的优点。

[Formula: see text] Traditional and alternative scores in performance tests to measure executive functions: differential associations with children's academic performance.

This study explores the relationship between children's academic performance and their results on cognitive function tests. Traditionally, cognitive test scores often reflect overall accuracy or speed. Yet, these overall scores are often influenced by both diverse executive functions (EF) and non-EF cognitive processes. To isolate specific cognitive functions, alternative scoring methods have been developed, which aim to measure one cognitive function more purely. We investigated whether combining traditional overall scores with alternative scores claiming to measure strategy use improves the prediction of children's academic performance. Three cognitive tests were administered: Verbal Fluency test, Design Fluency test, and Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure test, alongside factors such as age, IQ, sex, and parental education, in a sample of 132 Dutch-speaking children (aged 9.48-12.63 years; 61 girls). For each test, we calculated traditional total scores and alternative scores. Academic performance was assessed using arithmetic and reading tests, along with secondary school advice. The findings indicate that both traditional and alternative scores positively correlate with secondary school advice and children's arithmetic and reading performance, but not with parental reports. Combining traditional and alternative scores enhances predictive accuracy for only arithmetic outcomes. However, once IQ was controlled for, the predictive value of alternative scores focused on strategy use diminished. Consequently, our findings suggest that combining both scoring methods can offer a superior prediction of academic outcomes, at least in arithmetic, underscoring their merit in psychodiagnostics assessment.

期刊介绍: The purposes of Child Neuropsychology are to: publish research on the neuropsychological effects of disorders which affect brain functioning in children and adolescents, publish research on the neuropsychological dimensions of development in childhood and adolescence and promote the integration of theory, method and research findings in child/developmental neuropsychology. The primary emphasis of Child Neuropsychology is to publish original empirical research. Theoretical and methodological papers and theoretically relevant case studies are welcome. Critical reviews of topics pertinent to child/developmental neuropsychology are encouraged. Emphases of interest include the following: information processing mechanisms; the impact of injury or disease on neuropsychological functioning; behavioral cognitive and pharmacological approaches to treatment/intervention; psychosocial correlates of neuropsychological dysfunction; definitive normative, reliability, and validity studies of psychometric and other procedures used in the neuropsychological assessment of children and adolescents. Articles on both normal and dysfunctional development that are relevant to the aforementioned dimensions are welcome. Multiple approaches (e.g., basic, applied, clinical) and multiple methodologies (e.g., cross-sectional, longitudinal, experimental, multivariate, correlational) are appropriate. Books, media, and software reviews will be published.
