The Relationship ◽  
Cognitive Tempo

The relationship between cognitive tempo and selective attention in 29 learning disabled children was investigated. The performance of the 9 reflective and the 9 impulsive children on selective-attention tasks was compared. An examination of t tests and correlations between variables for each task showed a relationship between cognitive tempo and selective attention. This relationship was stronger for central than for incidental recall.

The Relationship

Historically, most programming and research efforts in the field of learning disabilities have focused on the disabilities evidenced by LD children and youth. By representing an attempt to consider the positive attributes of LD individuals, the study of creativity in the learning disabled population takes on special significance. The results of this investigation support the relationship between selective attention and creativity in LD boys. However, it was found that the relationship changed as a function of age and the type of creativity measured. The issues raised by this line of inquiry should provide impetus for other investigations designed to explore such attributes as creativity in learning disabled children and youth.

Cognitive Tempo

There is much clinical and subjective support for the notion that academic underachievers of normal intelligence (learning disabled children) exhibit both impulsivity and poor attention. This study compared high and low achieving children on two experimental tasks previously designed to measure impulsivity (Kagan's MFF) and selective attention (Hagen's Central-Incidental Task). Results generated empirical support for more impulsivity and less selective attention in low achievers than high achievers. Results indicated the 2 measures were correlated, suggesting a link between selective attention and cognitive tempo.
