Abstract

The aim of this study is to analyze the influence of executive function on the performance of phonological awareness skills tasks of children in the second grade of elementary school in two schools of municipal public school. 18 children aged 7 years of both genders, enrolled in the second grade of public elementary school, participated in the study. Evaluations of executive functions and phonological awareness were performed. Pearson correlation statistic and Fischer's exact test were used, with significance level p <0.05. The results do not indicate the existence of a positive correlation between the variables. In addition to no statistical difference for any of the variables in relation to gender. The study can analyze that the executive function does not seem to be a variable that, in isolation, influences the phonological awareness abilities for the studied school range.
