Chess is considered as a cognitive game because of severe engagement of the mental resources during playing. The purpose of this study is evaluation of frontal lobe function of chess players with matched non-players. Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST) data showed no difference between the player and non-player groups in preservation error and completed categories but surprisingly showed significantly lower grade of the player group in correct response. Our data reveal that chess players don't have any preference in any stage of Stroop test. Chess players don't have any preference in selective attention, inhibition and executive cognitive function. Chess players' have lower shifting abilities than non-players.
国际象棋被认为是一种认知游戏,因为在玩的过程中需要大量运用精神资源。本研究的目的是评估国际象棋棋手与非棋手的额叶功能。威斯康星卡片分类测验(WCST)数据显示,棋手组和非棋手组在持续性错误和完成分类方面没有差异,但令人惊讶的是,棋手组在正确反应方面的得分显著较低。我们的数据表明,国际象棋棋手在斯特鲁普测验的任何阶段都没有偏好。国际象棋棋手在选择性注意、抑制和执行认知功能方面没有偏好。国际象棋棋手的转换能力低于非棋手。
