Resumen
La prueba ANT es una tarea atencional creada para estudiar las tres redes que forman el sistema
atencional: alerta, la orientación y la atención ejecutiva. Dicha prueba ha sido ampliamente estudiada
en múltiples patologías, demostrándose su fiabilidad y validez. Sin embargo, a pesar de su extenso
uso a nivel básico y clínico no está validada aun en población española. Por tanto, el objetivo del
presente Trabajo Fin de Grado es la creación de un grupo con puntuaciones de referencia normativa
en 237 hablantes españoles sanos de entre 18 y 78 años.Los análisis estadísticos con ANOVA, TStudent
y U-Mann-Withney demostraron la influencia del género, la edad y el nivel educativo en la
prueba ANT, así como diferencias significativas entre los grupos en cada una de las condiciones de
la prueba.El FDT se usó como prueba gold estándar para la medición de la atención, demostrándose
la validez de este a través de correlaciones bivariadas con la ANT.
The ANT is an attentional task created in order to study the three networks, which form the attentional system: alerting, orienting and executive attention. Such proof has been extensively studied in many diseases, being its reliability and validity proved. However, its widespread use has not been validated among the Spanish population yet. Hence, the goal of this Undergraduate Final Project is to create a group of 237 healthy Spanish speakers aged from 18 to 78 years old with scores normative reference. The statistical analysis with ANOVA, T-Student and U-Mann-Whitney indicated that the influence of gender, age and educational level on the ANT test, as well as significant differences between groups in each of the variables of the test.The FDT was used as gold standard test for the attention measurement, demonstrating its validity by means of the bivariate correlations with ANT.
