CHINOME TORRES, Julián David; RODRIGUEZ BARRETO, Lucía Carlota e PARRA PULIDO, Javier Humberto. Implementation and evaluation of a cognitive stimulation program in rural preschools. Psicol. caribe [online]. 2017, vol.34, n.3, pp.184-203. ISSN 0123-417X. https://doi.org/10.14482/psdc.33.2.72787.
The aim of the present investigation was to determine the effect of an early stimulation program to implement and evaluate an early stimulation program in38 rural preschoolers with 36 to 78 months, a quasi-experimental study with control group, with pre-post treatment measures, the evaluation was developed with the Questionnaire for children's neuropsychological maturity (CUMANIN). Control and experimental groups were randomly assigned. At the pre-treatment level, it was found that 53% presented degrees of neuropsychological immaturity, no significant differences were found between the groups. The post treatment evaluation showed significant differences that indicate that the experimental group had a better performance than the control group. In the intragroup analysis, the experimental group had improvements at the pre-and post-treatment level associated to the implementation of the program, also significant differences were found at intragroup level in the control group, possibly associated to a reactive effect of the test. The evaluation of the program in the present study showed favorable results in its implementation. Early stimulation experiences may influence the maturational development of children; it is suggested to implement early stimulation programs in disadvantaged children.
