The conference report presents the results of the project “The Influence of Digital Activity on the Development of Cognitive Functions in Preschool Age”. The study was conducted from February to May 2024 with the participation of 88 children from preparatory groups of kindergartens in Moscow. The following methods were used: the “Dimensional Change Card Sort” method (P.D. Zelazo), the “Memorizing 10 Words” method (A.R. Luria), and the “Raven’s Coloured Progressive Matrices”. It was proven that the digital versions of the games “Dobble” and “Tangram” have a greater positive impact on the development of auditory short-term and long-term memory than the traditional board versions. Girls demonstrated better reproduction scores on the auditory memory test compared to boys. Additionally, a direct link was found between abstract intelligence and the level of development of cognitive flexibility.
