| Abstract: | This study aims to investigate the effect of digital games on enhancing creativity and improving executive functions in preschool children. This quasi -experimental study employed a pre/post -test design and a control group. A total of 60 children aged 5-6 who were very interested in drawing and highly motivated to participate in the experiment were selected to participate in the experiment. Children were randomly divided into experimental group( n=30, female=19; male=11, Mean age by month=60.2, SD=0.34 ), and control group ( n=30, female=20; male=10, Mean age by month=60.3, SD=0.36). To verify the research hypotheses (assessing the effectiveness of digital games on executive functions and creativity of preschool children), multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) was conducted. The model included one between-group variable with two levels (Experimental vs. Control), one repeated-measures variable with two levels (pre-test vs. post-test), and an interaction factor (condition x time). Results of this study emphasized the significant effect of digital games on executive functions and Creativity in preschool children. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
