Habilidades de razonamiento y lectura

Abstract

The current investigation aims to provide new scientific evidence associated with reasoning skills in adults and children, and more specifically, to look into the relationship between reasoning and reading skills in adults and children with typical development and also, in children with reading disabilities. The main aim of this investigation is to create a new reasoning task similar with the traditional propositional transitive inference task (paper and pencil task), but without reading requirements that allow to study the visual impedance effect. The design of the task is planned to be very simple, and therefore, it could be utilized in research in reasoning for both adults and children with and without reading disabilities. The task will be based on pictures, and thus it will not include the impediment that the written language may pose.
