NEKI ASPEKTI EGZEKUTIVNIH FUNKCIJA KAO PREDIKTORI RAZUMEVANJA TEKSTUALNIH MATEMATIČKIH ZADATAKA KOD UČENIKA SA LAKOM INTELEKTUALNOM OMETENOŠĆU
Sažetak
Pri rešavanju tekstualnih matematičkih zadataka najznačajniji segment rada odnosi se na tačno prevođenje sa matematičkog na maternji jezik u čijoj se osnovi, između ostalih faktora, nalaze otpornost na distrakcije i formiranje adekvatnih verbalnih strategija. Cilj istraživanja odnosi se na utvrđivanje doprinosa određenih aspekata egzekutivnih funkcija pri objašnjenju varijanse rešavanja tekstualnih matematičkih zadataka kod učenika s lakom intelektualnom ometenošću (LIO). Uzorak obuhvata devedesetoro učenika s LIO, kalendarskog uzrasta od 12 do 16 godina (AS=14,07; SD=1,46), oba pola (44,4% dečaka i 55,6% devojčica), bez neuroloških i višestrukih smetnji. Procena segmenata egzekutivnih funkcija realizovana je primenom Testa dvadeset pitanja i Stroop testom. U svrhu procene razumevanja matematičkog jezika primenjeni su verbalni problemski zadaci. Rezultati pokazuju da su procenjeni aspekti egzekutivnih funkcija značajni prediktori razumevanja matematičkog jezika kod učenika s LIO. Najjačim se prediktorom pokazala otpornost na distraktore (p=0,01).
Ključne reči: matematički jezik, verbalne strategije, otpornost na distraktore, laka intelektualna ometenost
