Abstract

Abstract: In the present research, the neuropsychological functions and their relationship with the difficulties in the writing processes in third-year EGB students of a public educational institution in the city of Loja were explored. The sample was made up of 50 male and female students whose ages ranged from 7 to 8 years 11 months. Methodologically, it is quantitative research with a non-experimental, transversal and descriptive design. The Neuropsychological Maturity Questionnaire for Schoolchildren (CUMANES) and the Writing Processes Evaluation Battery (PROESC) were used as instruments. Among the main findings, a medium level of neuropsychological development was evident (58%). Furthermore, it can be shown that there is a slight positive relationship between neuropsychological development and writing processes. Finally, it is concluded that children present a level of neuropsychological development appropriate for their age, which implies that as students grow, they acquire writing skills.
