Resumen

Un adecuado funcionamiento intelectual favorece el aprendizaje (pedagógico y experiencial) y la resolución de problemáticas. Las personas con dislexia presentan un coeficiente intelectual total (CIT) normal, con deficiencias cognoscitivas que afectan la adquisición de competencias lectoras. El objetivo de nuestra investigación fue analizar la relación entre los índices del coeficiente intelectual y el CIT, en 120 pacientes diagnosticados con dislexia, con edades comprendidas entre los 7 y 16 años, que se encuentran en proceso de intervención en un centro neuropsicológico de la ciudad de Medellín, Colombia. Se construyó un modelo de ecuaciones estructurales (MEE) en el software RCran 4.0.4, examinando la relación entre las variables latentes: Memoria de Trabajo (MT), Comprensión Verbal (CV), Velocidad de Procesamiento (VP), Razonamiento Perceptivo (RP) y CIT, con la Escala Wechsler de inteligencia. Los resultados arrojan que la covarianza entre el índice de MT y el CIT fue positiva (.73), indicando una relación directa entre ambas variables. Se concluye un bajo rendimiento en el índice de MT y el CIT de la población evaluada.
