Resumen:
AbstractStimulation of executive functions (EF) using digital games is a practice that has experienced significant growth in different areas. In sight of the objective pursued, it is necessary to have clear software selection criterias. This article focuses on a correlational study between different EF transversely evaluated in a pediatric population (N = 40) of the second grade of elementary education in the city of Rosario (Argentina) and intends to organize the data obtained with existing theoretical models searching for the game selection criteria for the stimulation of cognitive flexibility. Significant ?although moderate- correlations were found between this function and attention, memory and inhibitory control; links that underlie the lines suggested in the discussion.
