Los déficits inhibitorios se observan en vários cuadros neurológicos y psiquiátricos, lo que puede aumentar la frecuencia de las respuestas perseverativas. No existe uma normalización de criterios para evaluar la perseveración. Lo Estudio 1 tiene por objetivo obtener datos preliminares de hasta cuantas casillas la repetición de un número debe ser considerada una perseveración en la tarea Generación Aleatoria de Números (GAN). El potencial de discriminación del puntaje de corte será examinado mediante la comparación de TDAH y saludables (Estudio 2). Se utilizaron los instrumentos: Cuestionario de datos socio-demográficos y de salud, Cuestionario abreviado de Conners, Matrices progresivas de Raven e lo GAN. Participaron niños de 6 a 12 años de edad (Estudio 1: n=60; Estudio 2: Trastorno por déficit de atención con hiperactividad (TDAH), n=9 e controles, n=18). Los niños tuvieron una media de 4,97 (dp=1,78) casillas para repetir un número. El criterio que considera la perseveración como la repetición del número hasta cinco casillas después de su última evocación ha distinguido TDAH y controles. Por lo tanto, esto parece ser el criterio más sensible para evaluar la perseveración.Descargas
