The relationship between exercise and cognition is an important research topic that has only recently begun to unfold. The purpose of the article is to study graphomotor skills and their impact on the level of intelligence in children using an electronic application. In the article, the authors experimented with calculating the IQ level of children using data on graphomotor skills obtained after using the «Nimble Fingers» electronic application, which can be done based on the use of standard methods of the Wexler scale, given that the electronic application is focused on the development of fine motor skills and the accuracy of tasks. The authors used two subtests of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale IV (WISC-IV) for children. It was found that two WISC-IV subtests — Block Design and Alphabet Pattern — showed significant correlations with other cognitive functions, which confirms their importance for assessing both graphomotor and cognitive skills in children. Graphomotor skills have been shown to influence academic achievement and cognitive function. The results highlight the importance of investigating the correlation between physical skills and various aspects of cognition.
