Abstract

El objetivo de este trabajo ha sido evaluar el desarrollo evolutivo de la planificación y obtener datos normativos de la prueba de planificación �Torre de Hanoi� en escolares de Educación Primaria (EP). Con este propósito se ha seleccionado una muestra de 1.032 alumnos/as escolarizados desde primero hasta sexto curso de EP en la Comunidad Autónoma de Canarias, con edades comprendidas entre los 6 años y 3 meses y los 12 años y 4 meses. Se analizó el número de diseños correctamente realizados por los escolares en los diferentes cursos. Los resultados encontrados ponen de manifiesto la existencia de tres momentos diferenciados en el desarrollo de la planificación, observándose un rendimiento inferior del alumnado de primer curso frente al resto de los cursos y un rendimiento más similar entre, por un lado, el alumnado de segundo, tercero y cuarto, y, por otro lado, entre el de quinto y sexto curso. Asimismo, se observa una mejora progresiva en la planificación -en función de la edad. Por último, se presenta el baremo para EP de la prueba �Torre de Hanoi�.
