Abstract(s)
A velocidade de processamento da informação pode ser definida como uma componente
das capacidades cognitivas que incide sobre a capacidade de aprendizagem e raciocínio
de um sujeito, sendo um elemento fulcral no investimento das habilidades mentais e
pertinente para fatores desde o desempenho na literatrura até aos cálculos matemáticos
avançados. A velocidade a que a informação se difunde é mensurável cronológicamente,
permitindo avaliar o tempo que separa um estímulo da reacção ao mesmo. O presente
estudo visa, portanto, a verificação científicamente comprovada que diferentes índices
de velocidade de processamento irão afetar o tempo a que o sujeito reage ao
reconhecimento de identidade com base numa face. Pertinentemente, o reconhecimento
de identidade é igualmente fundamental ao nível das relações interpessoais, socialização
e vida em comunidade, tal como no desempenho de determinadas profissões que
requerem um rápido processamento cognitivo na identificação de duas faces como sendo
a mesma ou faces diferentes, como é o caso dos seguranças aeroportuários. Para a
construção da experiência na recolha dos dados, foi utilizada a Glasgow Face Matching
Test (GFMT), uma base de dados de fotografias de pessoas reais que correspondem a
determinadas características adequadas à presente investigação, bem como a tarefa de
números idênticos de Andersson (2008) e a velocidade de contagem e a figura
geométrica idêntica de Bull & Johnston (1997). O projeto é de natureza quantitativa, com
um design correlacional e inter-sujeitos. A amostra é constituída por jovens adultos com
idades inferiores a 30 anos, incidindo sobre uma população maioritáriamente
universitária, sem descriminação por sexos.
Information processing speed can be broadly defined as a component of cognitive abilities that focuses on a subject's learning and reasoning ability, and is a key element in the investment of mental skills, relevant to factors ranging from literacy performance to advanced mathematical calculations. The speed at which information is disseminated is chronologically measurable, allowing the time to separate a stimulus from its reaction to be evaluated, and the present study therefore aims at scientific verification that different processing speed indices will affect the time at which the information is transmitted when the subject reacts to face-based identity recognition. Identity recognition is equally fundamental in interpersonal relationships, socialization and community life, as well as in the performance of certain professions that require rapid cognitive processing in identifying two faces as being the same or different faces, such as airport security. To build the data collection experience, the Glasgow Face Matching Test (GFMT) was used, a database of real people photographs that correspond to certain characteristics suitable for the present investigation, as well as Andersson's (2008) identical number task and Bull & Johnston's (1997) counting speed and identical geometrical figure. The project is quantitative, cross-sectional, with a correlational design and inter-subject. The sample consists of young adults under 30 years of age, focusing on a mostly university population, without gender discrimination.
