Resumen

Introducción. Recientemente se ha demostrado que las emociones interfieren con la eficacia de la inhibición comportamental. La inhibición comportamental es el proceso encargado de suprimir, de forma deliberada respuestas automáticas, dominantes o prepotentes que resultan inapropiadas en función de los objetivos. Debido a la relevancia de los estímulos emocionales para la supervivencia, diferentes estudios han indicado que el rendimiento de la inhibición comportamental puede variar según el contexto, es decir, en contextos neutrales o emocionalmente relevantes.

Objetivo. Por este motivo, el objetivo del estudio fue analizar el funcionamiento de la inhibición comportamental en contextos con distinta temperatura emocional en una muestra de niños de 8 a 12 años de edad.

Material y métodos. Los niños realizaron una tarea experimental de Simon Afectivo con estímulos emocionales y neutrales para evaluar la inhibición comportamental en contextos con alta y baja importancia emocional.

Resultados y discusión. Los resultados mostraron que no hubo diferencias significativas dependiendo del contexto como se esperaba. Se discuten los resultados a la luz de otros estudios, y se enfatiza que estos resultados constituyen un enfoque para el problema de la interferencia del contenido emocional en población infantil.
