Resumen

La inhibición conductual es la tendencia temperamental para mostrar de forma constante comportamientos marcados de retraimiento y miedo ante personas, situaciones o eventos novedosos. Recientes estudios han mostrado la relación de esta tendencia con alteraciones en el desarrollo psicológico y social. Por otro lado, estudios empíricos han expuesto la influencia de múltiples variables en el rendimiento académico. En este sentido, la presente investigación examina la relación entre la inhibición conductual y 4 aptitudes académicas (verbal oral, verbal escrita, numérica y memorística) en alumnado de Educación Infantil. Se hipotetiza una repercusión negativa de altos niveles de inhibición conductual en las mismas. Participaron un total de 79 niños de los 3 cursos de Educación Infantil. Sus maestros cumplimentaron un cuestionario de inhibición conductual y otro de aptitudes académicas. Los resultados del análisis univariado muestran resultados significativos en 3 de las aptitudes evaluadas: verbal oral, verbal escrita y memorística. En los 3 casos, las puntuaciones medias son superiores en el grupo con bajo nivel de inhibición con respecto al grupo de inhibición media. Los resultados son acordes con la hipótesis de partida, aunque se deben considerar las limitaciones del estudio previo a la valoración de posibles implicaciones psicoeducativas del mismo.

Abstract

Assessment of the connection between behavioral inhibition and academic aptitudes in early childhood education. Preliminary results. Behavioral inhibition refers to a temperamental tendency of reacting that people exhibit when confronted with novel people, situations or unfamiliar events. Recent studies have shown the relationship of this trend with disorders in psychological and social development. On the other hand, empirical studies have exposed the influence of multiple variables on academic performance. In this sense, this research examines the relationship between behavioral inhibition and four academic skills (oral verbal, written verbal, numerical and rote) in kindergarten students. We hypothesize a negative impact of high levels of behavioral inhibition in them.A total of 79 children from three childhood education courses have participated. Their teachers completed a questionnaire of behavioral inhibition and other about academic skills. The results of univariate analysis show significant results in three of the skills measured: verbal oral, verbal written and rote. In all three cases, mean scores are higher in the group with low level of inhibition respect to the group with mean level in inhibition. The results are consistent with the hypothesis, although it should consider the limitations of the study previously to evaluate psychoeducational implications.
