    El objetivo de esta investigación fue analizar de manera experimental el efecto de la disponibilidad de recursos económicos sobrefunciones cognitivas y preferencias sociales en estudiantes universitarios. Se condujo un estudio con diseño experimental inter-sujetos en el que participaron 60 estudiantesuniversitarios. Se comparó el desempeño de participantes expuestos a condiciones de altos y bajos recursos económicos en tareas de desempeño cognitivo (inteligencia fluida y control inhibitorio) y de preferencias sociales (Juego del Ultimátum, con ofertas de distinto grado de justicia). En general, los resultados indicaron que no hubo diferencias significativas entre los participantes de las condicionesde bajos y altos recursos económicos en las funciones cognitivas y preferencias sociales. En cambio, hubo diferencias según sexo en el dominio cognitivo. Se discuten los resultados a la luz de investigaciones previas y se reconocen las principales limitaciones

    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 was compared 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.

    O objetivo desta pesquisa foi analisar de maneira experimental o efeito da disponibilidade de recursos econômicos sobre as funções cognitivas e preferências sociais de estudantes universitários. 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 resultados à luz de investigações anteriores e se reconhecem as principais limitações.
