Item Existencia de diferencias en la inteligencia de niños vulnerables y no vulnerables en instituciones educativas del municipio de Cali(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Rojas Martínez, Hary Nathalia; Giraldo Aguirre, Santiago; Benítez Murcia, Daniela Carolina; Erazo, Oscar Armando (Director)Intelligence, understood as the ability to adapt and solve problems, influences the way in which a human being faces the problems of daily life, having repercussions on love, social and ethical life. Vulnerability, understood as the context in which the human being does not have access to his fundamental rights in a satisfactory way, influences the development of intelligence, thus generating an interest in the visualization of this factor in students from 8 to 10 years old in selected institutions of the municipality of Cali. Considering all this, the objective of the research is to identify the existence of a relationship between vulnerability and intelligence in children from 8 to 10 years old from vulnerable educational institutions in the municipality of Cali. To accomplish this, a descriptive and quantitative cross-sectional design was carried out. It involved 92 students belonging to the vulnerable institution Manuela Beltrán and the non-vulnerable institution Lancaster Bilingüe School. The K-bit test was used to measure the variables of crystallized and fluid intelligence and IQ. These variables are evaluated in the following categories: very low, low, medium low, medium, medium high, high and very high. The K-Bit test revealed results with notable differences between the intelligence of students in the non-vulnerable institution and the vulnerable institution. In the case of the vulnerable institution it was recorded that 69.5% of the population oscillated between the very low, low and medium low categories in the verbal intelligence tests. 52.1% of the population oscillated in the very low, low and medium-low categories in the tests of fluid intelligence. 80.4% of the population ranged in the very low, low and medium-low categories in IQ tests. While, in the case of the non-vulnerable institution, its results showed that 80.3% of the population oscillated in the medium, medium high, high and very high ranges in the verbal intelligence tests. 80.3% of the population oscillated in the medium, medium-high, high, high and very high ranges in the tests of fluid intelligence. 80.4% of the population ranged between the medium, medium high, high, high and very high ranges on IQ tests. In conclusion, the data reveal that vulnerable individuals show medium to low score ranges, while non-vulnerable individuals presented medium to high score ranges. These results support the relationship between vulnerability variables and levels of fluid, crystallized intelligence and IQ. Overall, the study contributes to the understanding of how socioeconomic factors may influence intellectual development at early ages.
