Dragana Mitić, Milanko Mučibabić, Nemanja Stanković
Abstract: 
Most aims in judo can not be achieved unless we don't know cognitive abilities, because they either limit or stimulate human abilities. The reason why cognitive abilities are studied very often is to find out how to increase the dimensions of cognitive abilities or how much influence cognitive abilities have on the success in some sports regarding certain personality dimensions.The aim of this research is to establish cognitive abilities structure of young judo fighters. For this research three representative tests are chosen.The results from Momirovic`s B6 criteria showed that there is one latent dimension which gathers the whole area of three cognitive tests with 36,27% of mutual variance.
