Корреляционная связь между когнитивными тестами: Струпа, Корси и ВТСК

The interrelation of executive function components remains insufficiently explored, limiting the interpretation of findings in neurocognitive research. This study aimed to assess the correlation between widely used executive function measures – the Stroop Test, the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (WCST), and the Corsi Block-Tapping Test – selected in accordance with the model proposed by A. Miyake and N. Friedman. The Stroop Test was used to assess information processing speed under cognitive conflict. The WCST was employed to measure cognitive flexibility in response to changing task demands. The Corsi Test was used to evaluate the capacity of visuospatial working memory. The hypothesis of the study suggested weak correlations between the outcomes of these assessments. The study sample included 130 students from Petrozavodsk State University (56% female), aged 18 to 22 years (M = 19.02, SD = 1.4). Statistical analysis revealed weak but statistically significant correlations (p < .05) among the results of the Stroop Test, WCST, and Corsi Test. The findings indicate: (1) executive function tests exhibit low convergent validity and should not be considered interchangeable; (2) the application of this test battery to assess executive functions as a unified construct requires further validation.
