Al-Hassan; Dario Bacchini; Kirby Deater-Deckard – Developmental Science, 2025
Executive functioning (EF) is an important developing self-regulatory process that has implications for academic, social, and emotional outcomes. Most work in EF has focused on childhood, and less has examined the development of EF throughout adolescence and into emerging adulthood. The present study assessed longitudinal trajectories of EF from…

Peng Peng; Yuting Liu; Kelly Cartwright; Marc Goodrich; Natalie Koziol; Chi Ma; Caroline Whitmarsh – Scientific Studies of Reading, 2024
Purpose: The study explored the distinct contributions of domain-general, behavioral, and reading-specific executive function to reading comprehension, and whether reading fluency and vocabulary moderate or mediate the relations between executive function and reading comprehension. Method: Data were collected from 129 4th and 5th graders (35.66%,…

Sofia Kouvava; Katerina Antonopoulou; Constantinos M. Kokkinos; Asimina M. Ralli – Topics in Language Disorders, 2025
The present study explores the relationships among executive functions (EFs) (working memory, inhibition, and cognitive flexibility), number of friends, friendship stability and friendship quality in neurotypical (NT) children and peers with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or dyslexia. The participants were 192 children…

Nihumathunnisa H.; Jahitha Begum A.; Sathishkumar A. – Journal on Educational Psychology, 2025
Executive functioning skills are very essential components of effective learning, innovative thinking, and decision-making that are necessary for the growing minds of the twenty-first century. Executive functioning refers to the collection of mental processes that guide and control psychological behavior and activities. Working memory, attentional…

Mercedes Montenegro-Peña; Pedro Montejo Carrasco; M. Emiliana De Andrés Montes; Antonio García Marín; Borja Montejo Rubio; David Prada Crespo – Educational Gerontology, 2025
The results of Cognitive Intervention (CI) programs vary considerably; thus, it is helpful to assess the characteristics that enhance the effectiveness of these programs. Our objectives were to analyze the effectiveness of a multicomponent CI program called UMAM on cognitive performance, subjective memory, daily forgetfulness, and mood of…

Yelim Hong; Christina M. Bertrand; Kirby Deater-Deckard; Cynthia L. Smith; Martha Ann Bell – Developmental Psychology, 2024
The authors examined task-based (i.e., executive function), surveyed (i.e., effortful control), and physiological (i.e., resting cardiac respiratory sinus arrhythmia [RSA]) measures of child and maternal regulation as distinct moderators of longitudinal bidirectional links between child externalizing (EXT) behaviors and harsh parenting (HP) from 6…

Mingjia Cai; Xian Liao – Studies in Second Language Learning and Teaching, 2025
Executive functions (EF) have long been recognized as critical factors in accounting for individual differences in literacy development. However, their role in second language (L2) learning, particularly in non-alphabetic languages such as Chinese, has not been fully explored. This study endeavored to examine the role of EF in word reading among…

Kamal Parhoon; Frederick L. Coolidge; Hamid Alizadeh; Hadi Parhoon; Apeksha Srivastava – International Journal of School & Educational Psychology, 2024
Objective: This study investigated the effect of Cognitive Rehabilitation Training (CRT) on executive functions, problem solving, and attention in students with a specific learning disorder (SLD). Method: Forty-two SLD students from the third to sixth grade (8-12 years old) were randomly assigned to 16 sessions of CRT (n = 21) or to a control (n =…

Estela Garcia-Alcaraz; Juana M. Liceras – Journal of Psycholinguistic Research, 2025
Unlike with the typically developing population, non-typically developing individuals, especially those with intellectual disabilities, have usually been recommended to learn and use only one language, despite perhaps coming from bilingual families or living in multilingual environments. This common practice, however, is not backed by empirical…

Bryant, Lauren J.; Cuevas, Kimberly – Child Development, 2022
The effects of rewards on executive function (EF) reflect bidirectional interactions among motivational and executive systems that vary with age and temperament. However, methodological limitations hinder understanding of the precise influences of incentives on early EF, including the role of reward sensitivity. In this within-subjects study,…

Werner Greve; Martin Koch; Verena Rasche; Kristin Kersten – Journal of Multilingual and Multicultural Development, 2024
The cognitive advantage (CA) hypothesis claims that multilingualism promotes the development of several basic cognitive capacities. A large number of empirical findings support this hypothesis, but recently there have also been numerous contradictory findings and methodological objections. The present paper extends the investigation of possible…

Miranda, Agustín Ramiro; Cortez, Mariela Valentina; Scotta, Ana Veronica; Soria, Elio Andrés – Journal of Intelligence, 2022
Puerperium may lead to memory and executive/attentional complaints that interfere with women's daily life. This might be prevented by dietary compounds, such as neuroprotective polyphenols. Their bioactivity depends on their effects on lipid metabolism in different tissues, such as the brain, fat, and breast. Thus, a polyphenol-related cognitive…

Figueroa, Mario; Silvestre, Núria; Darbra, Sònia – Communication Disorders Quarterly, 2022
The acquisition of effective reading comprehension for adolescents with a cochlear implant (CI) in inclusive settings is crucial for ensuring the benefit of current traditional reading curricula and instructional practices. Executive functions (EF) are recognized as important cognitive processes during reading by students with typical hearing…

Chen, Chih-Chia; Ryuh, Yonjoong; Mackey, Kathryn – Physical Educator, 2022
This study investigated the cognitive effect of a unified flag football program in young adults with intellectual disabilities (ID). Twelve participants practiced football drills with their typical peers for 50 min each session, twice a week for 15 weeks. Measures of three aspects of executive functions (e.g., verbal working memory, measured as…

Wang, Yijie; Chen, Mingzhang; Zhang, Youchuan; Chen, Yulu – Developmental Psychology, 2023
Executive function (EF) has rarely been considered for adolescents' daily school outcomes or in conjunction with ethnic/racial discrimination. Using 2-week, daily data from 137 ethnic/racial minority adolescents (M[subscript age] = 14.56; 53% female; 56% Black, 19% Latinx, 7% Asian, 7% Native, 12% other [e.g., multiracial]) in the Midwest United…
