| description | The objective of this work was to analyze the influence of cognitive and personality variables in the Decision Making (DM) construct, evaluated by the Iowa Gambling Task (IGT). For this propose, a battery of neuropsychological tests was applied to 116 individuals of both genders between 18 and 35 years olds. The results showed that the IGT performance was not associated to the cognitive variables evaluated, only it has been found moderated relationship between working memory and DM. These outcomes suggest that DM seems to be an independent construct of the “cool” cognitive functions and could be influenced for the emotional or motivational aspects related to “hot” cognitive process. Finally, the DM process seems to be more associated to the ability to avoid punishment than the capacity of evaluate long term benefits. |

El objetivo de este trabajo fue analizar la influencia de variables cognitivas y rasgos de personalidad en la Toma de Decisiones (TD), medidos a través del Iowa Gambling Task (IGT), para lo cual, se aplicó una batería de pruebas neuropsicológicas a 116 individuos de ambos sexos entre 18 y 35 años. Los resultados indican que el desempeño en el IGT no pudo ser asociado a las variables cognitivas evaluadas, sólo se encontraron relaciones moderadas entre la memoria de trabajo y la TD en aquellos individuos que se desempeñaron de manera ventajosa en este juego. Así, la TD aparecería como un constructo independiente de las funciones cognitivas “frías” y podría verse influido por aspectos emocionales o motivacionales relacionados al procesamiento cognitivo “caliente”. Por último, el proceso de TD parece vincularse más a la habilidad para evitar castigos que a la capacidad de evaluar beneficios a largo plazo.
