The aim of the study was to describe the intellectual function of working memory capacity (WMC) in university students from a case study. The study was conducted from June to July 2022 and in a random probabilistic way, six research seed students belonging to the National University "San Luis Gonzaga" (Ica, Peru) were selected. The WMC analysis was done through two types of didactic games (DG) with different degrees of complexity: 1st) the Divinance of colored cubes and 2nd) the marking and recognition of three sea shells between a total number of 100 shells. Each DG was replicated twice the first for stimulation of mental concentration in the face of the WMC analysis. The DG was replicated twice and in the case of the second, the immediate time (s) of recognition was measured where the comparison of the medians was, through the U-Whitney test. It was observed that the time of each replica and the coincidence error in the DG of the marking and recognition of the three shells was: U = 11.0 and p = 0.25. Although the coincidence error decreased in replica 2 and denoted higher CMT. It is concluded that the intellectual function of the CMT is possible from the JD since they represent an emotional stimulus. However, practices are needed that improve learning and particularly, from observation to an understanding of the objects to be selected.
