Resumen

Objetivo: explorar la relación entre variables sociodemográficas, actividades recreativas mediadas y no mediadas por tecnología, y el desarrollo cognitivo en la primera infancia. Metodología: Se llevó a cabo un estudio cuantitativo, no experimental, con un diseño transversal correlacional-causal, en Cartagena (Colombia) entre junio y octubre de 2023. Participaron 69 niños entre los 5 y 34 meses, seleccionados mediante muestreo no probabilístico por conveniencia, usuarios de centros de desarrollo infantil y guarderías, junto con su cuidador principal. Se recolectaron datos sociodemográficos y sobre la frecuencia de actividades recreativas —como lectura, juego al aire libre y uso de dispositivos electrónicos— mediante un cuestionario estructurado. El desarrollo cognitivo se evaluó con la escala cognitiva del Inventario de Desarrollo Battelle. Se realizaron análisis descriptivos, correlaciones de Spearman y regresión lineal múltiple para estimar asociaciones y relaciones predictivas entre las variables. Resultados: la escolaridad de la madre y la frecuencia de lectura como actividad recreativa mostraron una asociación significativa con un mejor desempeño cognitivo, explicando el 36,8% de la varianza en las puntuaciones de la escala cognitiva del Inventario de Desarrollo Battelle. No se identificó una relación significativa entre el uso de pantallas y el desarrollo cognitivo. Conclusión: la educación materna y la lectura emergen como factores clave para promover el desarrollo cognitivo en la primera infancia. Estos hallazgos subrayan la importancia de fomentar prácticas de estimulación en el hogar y de profundizar en la investigación sobre el impacto de las tecnologías en contextos socioculturales diversos.
