Abstract
La atención es una capacidad cognitiva crucial durante la infancia, ya que permite a los niños enfocar su mente, procesar información y mantener la concentración frente a estímulos del entorno. En el segundo ciclo del nivel inicial, esta habilidad empieza a consolidarse, y su desarrollo depende tanto de factores biológicos como emocionales, sociales y pedagógicos. Por ello, esta investigación tuvo como propósito analizar la atención en niños de este nivel educativo, mediante una revision bibliográfica basada en un enfoque cualitativo y diseño documental. A partir del análisis de estudios y teorías especializadas desde la neuropsicología y la neurociencia, se identificaron las principals características y dimensiones de la atención, así como los factores que la influyen. El estudio evidenció que la motivación, el contexto familiar y las estrategias del docente tienen un impacto directo en el desarrollo atencional infantil. Se concluye que promover experiencias educativas intencionadas, lúdicas y emocionalmente significativas permite fortalecer la atención desde edades tempranas, facilitando así el aprendizaje, la comunicación y la regulación emocional.
Attention is a crucial cognitive ability during early childhood, as it allows children to focus, process information, and maintain concentration in response to environmental stimuli. In the second cycle of early childhood education, this ability begins to consolidate, and its development depends not only on biological aspects but also on emotional, social, and pedagogical factors. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze attention in children at this educational stage through a bibliographic review, using a qualitative approach and documentary design. Based on the analysis of specialized studies and theoretical contributions from neuropsychology and neuroscience, the research identified the main characteristics and dimensions of attention, as well as the factors that influence it. The findings show that motivation, family environment, and teacher strategies directly impact children's attentional development. It is concluded that promoting educational experiences that are intentional, playful, and emotionally meaningful strengthens attention from an early age, facilitating learning, communication, and emotional regulation.
