AB Communication styles are the three communication patterns that result from mergingthe verbal elements of communication, the non-verbal elements and the paraverbal elements. Theobjective of this study was to test what effect different communication styles have on attention performance in primary school children. We administered the assertive behavior scale for children (CABS),the symbol digit modalities test (SDMT) and the d2 attention test to a sample of 77 participantsof primary school. A statistically significant and proportional correlation was found between theassertive communication style and the total number of correct answers of the SDMT. We also foundpositive correlations between the assertive communication style and d2 attention test performance.Children with an assertive communication style have better attention performance than childrenwith passive or aggressive communication styles
