Abstract:
Learning to write is key to successfully going through elementary education. Considerable
progress in children’s writing is documented in the intermediate school grades, due to lexical and
cognitive development. In line with this postulate, the goal of the study was to analyse the
predictive value of attention, perception, planning, working memory and long-term memory in
written expression tasks in Argentine schoolchildren. One hundred and sixty-eight boys and girls
participated, between 8 and 11 years of age, who were in 3rd, 4th and 5th grade of Elementary
Education. A regression analysis revealed that visuospatial perception, working memory, long-term
memory, and planning may predict writing performance in children. Working memory denoted a
high predictive value, along with long-term memory and visuospatial perception. The findings
provide evidence about the involvement of cognitive and executive processes in written expression
tasks in Spanish-speaking schoolchildren. Identifying cognitive predictors of writing skills makes it
possible to design more comprehensive teaching programs that jointly contemplate training in
specific writing skills and strengthening the cognitive resources of learners. |
