Some experiences demonstrate a direct correlation between attention capacity and reaction capacity. However, the evidence from adolescents enrolled in the Chilean school system is scarce. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between attention capacity and hand-eye reaction time (RT) in adolescents between 15 and 18 years of age. Thirty-one adolescents participated voluntarily in this study. The variables were: attention capacity, evaluated through the battery (item 1.1), and hand-eye RT, assessed through a simple RT test (SRT) and complex RT (CRT). The relationship between the variables was performed through Pearson's correlation. Comparisons between males and females were performed with the -test for independent samples ( ˂ 0.05). There was a moderate correlation between attention and CRT ( = -0.43), a very high correlation between attention and SRT in males ( = -0.73), and between attention and CRT in females ( = -0.73). Between males and females, there was no difference in attention ( ˃ 0.05), while males showed better RT in all tests ( ˂ 0.05). Attention positively influences hand-eye RT in both males and females. Likewise, male adolescents present better hand-eye RT than their female peers.
一些研究表明，注意力容量与反应速度之间存在直接相关性。然而，智利学校系统中青少年的相关研究证据却很匮乏。本研究旨在确定 15 至 18 岁青少年的注意力容量与手眼反应时（RT）之间的关系。31 名青少年自愿参与了这项研究。研究的变量包括：注意力容量，通过注意力测试（第 1.1 项）进行评估；手眼 RT，通过简单 RT 测试（SRT）和复杂 RT（CRT）进行评估。通过皮尔逊相关系数分析了变量之间的关系。通过独立样本 t 检验（ ˂ 0.05）对男性和女性进行了比较。注意力与 CRT 之间存在中度相关性（ = -0.43），男性注意力与 SRT 之间存在高度相关性（ = -0.73），女性注意力与 CRT 之间也存在高度相关性（ = -0.73）。男性和女性之间的注意力没有差异（ ˃ 0.05），但男性在所有测试中的 RT 都更好（ ˂ 0.05）。注意力对男性和女性的手眼 RT 都有积极影响。此外，男性青少年的手眼 RT 比女性青少年更好。
