Abstract

This study examined the influence of faculty specialization on deductive reasoning aptitude for undergraduate students. The participants were 85 undergraduate students from the Faculty of Psychology and Polytechnic Institute aged between 19 and 26 years old (m=23.46; S.D.=2.51). The instruments: 1) Adaptativ Matrix Test (Schuhfried, 2007); 2) The Scale of Difficulty Perception in Deductive Reasoning task solving. The group from the Faculty of Psychology obtained the mean of correct answers statistically significant lower than the group from the Faculty of Electronics. The findings reveal that faculty specialization has a strong influence on deductive reasoning aptitude and on developing cognitive skills.
