El estudio analizó la influencia del aprendizaje de ajedrez sobre las habilidades en razonamiento matemático, atención y concentración en niños en edad escolar de la Amazonia peruana. Se seleccionaron estudiantes de primer grado de secundaria de dos instituciones educativas de la ciudad de Puerto Maldonado, pública y privada. El diseño del estudio fue cuasiexperimental, con evaluaciones pretest-postest y un grupo control. Cada grupo tenía entre 18-30 estudiantes y al grupo experimental se le brindó clases de ajedrez dos veces por semana durante tres meses. Para analizar el efecto de la intervención sobre los grupos se utilizó un Modelo Linear Generalizado. En las dos habilidades evaluadas los resultados del postest del grupo experimental fueron superiores al grupo control. Se encontró un efecto significativo de la aplicación del ajedrez deportivo en el desarrollo de habilida...

The study aimed to analyze the influence of learning chess on mathematical, attention, and concentration abilities in school-aged children of two Schools in Peruvian Amazon. First-grade secondary school students were selected from two schools in Puerto Maldonado city, public and private. The design of the study was quasi-experimental, pretest-posttest evaluations and a control group. Each group had between 18-30 students, and the experimental group was given chess classes twice a week for three months. To analyze the effect of the intervention a Generalized Linear Model was used. In the two abilities evaluated, the posttest results of the experimental group were higher than the control group. A significant effect of the application of sports chess was found in the development of abilities in mathematical reasoning, attention, and concentration (P < 0.001). In the public school, the ef...
