| description | Inhibition is the ability to stop an automatic response when a stimulus is presented. It is one main component of executive function models. Few studies have evaluated the development of this ability’s in children between five and eight years of age using eye tracking measures. The first objective of this exploratory study is to evaluate the performance difference of younger compared to older children. The second objective is to evaluate if inhibition assessed via three different neuropsychological tests develops at a similar rate as inhibition assessed via two eye tracking tasks. Forty-six children aged 5.7 to 8.4 years completed both types of tests. Results show that one neuropsychological test was sensitive to the children’ increasing inhibition ability, while both eye tracking tests were. Additionally, scores from one eye tracking task correlated with scores from one neuropsychological test. Possible explanations of moderate relations between tasks are discussed. |

La inhibición es la capacidad de detener una respuesta automática. Es una de las funciones ejecutivas principales. Pocos estudios han evaluado su desarrollo en niños de cinco a ocho años utilizando pruebas de seguimiento de ojos. Este estudio exploratorio tiene, como primer objetivo, evaluar la diferencia de rendimiento entre los más jóvenes y los mayores. El segundo objetivo es evaluar si la inhibición se desarrolla a un ritmo similar en tres pruebas neuropsicológicas y dos pruebas de seguimiento de ojos. Cuarenta y seis niños, de 5 años y 8 meses a 8 años y 5 meses, realizaron ambos tipos de pruebas. Los resultados muestran que una de las pruebas neuropsicológicas y ambas pruebas de seguimiento de ojos fueron sensibles a la mejora de la inhibición. Además, resultados de una prueba de seguimiento de ojos y de una prueba neuropsicológica estaban correlacionados. Se discuten las explicaciones posibles de las relaciones entre las tareas.
