Resumo: The objective of this research was to determine the cultural differences in the execution of neuropsychological tests between a group of preschoolers with typical development in the province of Cienfuegos and another one in Sancti Spíritus, both in Cuba; as well as to identify the neuropsychological functions that influence intellectual performance. Sixty-seven children were selected and subdivided into groups. The Raven's Progressive Matrices Intelligence Test and the Luria Initial Neuropsychological Battery were used as neuropsychological evaluation instruments. The results showed significant differences in intelligence and various neuropsychological functions between the provinces. The neuropsychological variables influencing intellectual performance varied depending on the cultural groups. Taken together, the results suggest that cultural differences demand diverse patterns of cognitive skills that uniquely influence the development of intelligence and neuropsychological factors in preschool childhood.

Fueron seleccionados y subdivididos en grupos 67 niños. Como instrumentos de evaluación neuropsicológica se aplicaron la prueba de inteligencia matrices progresivas de Raven y la batería neuropsicológica Luria Inicial. Los resultados mostraron diferencias significativas en la inteligencia y diversas funciones neuropsicológicas entre las provincias. Las variables neuropsicológicas que influyen en el rendimiento intelectual, varían en dependencia de los grupos culturales. En conjunto, los resultados sugieren que las diferencias culturales demandan diversos patrones de habilidades cognitivas que influyen de forma singular en el desarrollo de la inteligencia y en los factores neuropsicológicos en la infancia preescolar.SciELO PreprintsSciELO PreprintsSciELO Preprints2022-10-03info:eu-repo/semantics/preprintinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/preprint/view/478510.1590/SciELOPreprints.4785enghttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/article/view/4785/9321Copyright (c) 2022 Rodneys Mauricio Jiménez Morales, Yaser Ramirez Benitez, Agustín Villarreal, Francisco Joel Pérez Hernándezhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMorales, Rodneys Mauricio JiménezBenitez, Yaser RamirezVillarreal, AgustínHernández, Francisco Joel Pérezreponame:SciELO Preprintsinstname:SciELOinstacron:SCI2022-09-25T22:54:14Zoai:ops.preprints.scielo.org:preprint/4785Servidor de preprintshttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scieloONGhttps://preprints.scielo.org/index.php/scielo/oaiscielo.submission@scielo.orgopendoar:2022-09-25T22:54:14SciELO Preprints - SciELOfalse
