Diseño de una aplicación de discriminación condicional de segundo orden para describir los procesos de abstracción en jóvenes del programa de psicología de la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México y de la Universidad Cooperativa de Colombia, sede Neiva

Resumen

Through the development of an application based on the second-order sample matching paradigm, we seek to explore and describe the abstraction processes in 60 young university students (30 from the National Autonomous University of Mexico and 30 from the Cooperative University of Mexico). Colombia headquarters Neiva). For this, a non-experimental descriptive-transversal design was used, where the stimuli used for the conformation of the tests were: geometric figures such as circles, triangles, pentagons, polygons and squares; words and numbers and pictures such as a tree, a car, a cross, a house, a child, a cartoon character, a treble clef, and a cross. The results obtained show the predominance of the empirical type of abstraction over the reflexive one, in the young university students participating in the study.
