description The objective of this research was to analyze experimentally the effect of the availability of economic resources on cognitive functions and social preferences in university students. A study with inter-subject experimental design was conducted. 60 university students participated. The performance of participants exposed to conditions of high and low economic resources in tasks of cognitive performance (fluid intelligence and inhibitory control) and social preferences (Ultimatum Game, with offers of different degrees of justice). In general, the results showed that there were no significant differences between the participants of the conditions of low and high economic resources in cognitive functions and social preferences. In contrast, there were differences according to sex in the cognitive domain. The results are discussed in light of previous research and the main limitations are recognized.

Foi realizado um estudo com desenho experimental intra-sujeitos, no qual participaram 60 estudantes universitários. Comparou-se o desempenho dos participantes expostos a condições de altos e baixos recursos econômicos em tarefas de desempenho cognitivo (inteligência fluida e controle inibitório) e de preferências sociais (Jogo do Ultimato, com ofertas de diferentes graus de justiça). Em geral, os resultados não indicaram diferenças significativas entre os participantes de condições de baixa e alta renda nas funções cognitivas e preferências sociais. Por outro lado, houve diferenças segundo o sexo no domínio cognitivo. Se discutem os resultados à luz de investigações anteriores e se reconhecem as principais limitações.Universidad Católica del Uruguay2020-03-192025-12-22T16:34:29Z2025-12-22T16:34:29Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/208010.22235/cp.v14i1.2080https://hdl.handle.net/10895/5468Ciencias Psicológicas; 2020, Volumen 14 (1); e-2080Ciencias Psicológicas; 2020, Volumen 14 (1); e-2080Ciencias Psicológicas; 2020, Volumen 14 (1); e-20801688-422110.22235/cp.v14i1reponame:LIBERIinstname:Universidad Católica del Uruguayinstacron:Universidad Católica del Uruguayspaenghttps://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/2080/2029https://revistas.ucu.edu.uy/index.php/cienciaspsicologicas/article/view/2080/2030Derechos de autor 2020 Universidad Católica del Uruguayinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:liberi.ucu.edu.uy:10895/54682026-06-16T06:52:43Z
