 ETWEEN INTELLIGENCE AND EXECUTIVE FUNCTION THROUGH VISUAL SCANNING STRATEG
 IES on 03/06/2025 at 9:30 in 540 McCallie\, Room 357. Everyone is invited 
 to attend. \n\nPsychology\n\nChair: Dr. Eschman\n\nCo-Chair: \n\nAbstract:
 \n\nExecutive function (EF) refers to a set of cognitive processes respons
 ible for higher-order thinking\, behavioral regulation\, and goal-directed
  behavior\, while intelligence is considered a contributing factor to cogn
 itive performance. Previous research has explored the relationship between
  these two constructs\, but it has potentially overlooked the individual d
 ifferences necessary for a comprehensive understanding of its complexity. 
 This study aimed to investigate these individual differences in EF by empl
 oying novel eye-tracking methodology within a foundational measure of EF\,
  the Go/No-Go task. 91 participants from the University of Tennessee at Ch
 attanooga were recruited to complete an adapted Go/No-Go task with the inc
 orporation of eye-tracking and the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intellige
 nce Second Edition (WASI-II). I hypothesized that visual scanning strategi
 es (such as saccade and fixation count\, fixation duration\, and number of
  comparisons) would provide evidence of individual differences that would 
 offer insight into the predictive relationship between EF and intelligence
 . Additionally\, these eye-tracking metrics\, along with traditional EF me
 asures from the Go/No-Go task would be correlated with higher intelligence
  as assessed by the WASI-II.
