Erik Winther Skogli; Per Normann Andersen; Stian Orm; Kjell Tore Hovik; Merete Glenne Øie – International Journal of Disability, Development and Education, 2024
Problems with executive function (EF) are considered a hallmark of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). However, little is known about the developmental pathway of everyday EF in these two groups, and whether the two groups follow a similar or different developmental course. In this longitudinal…

Elana Sarabin; Kelsey Harkness; Kara Murias – Journal of Attention Disorders, 2023
Objective: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity; however, other executive function dysregulation is common, including inhibition and working memory. This study aims to identify CT differences based on executive function performance in individuals with and without ADHD.…

Esbensen, Anna J.; Hoffman, Emily K.; Shaffer, Rebecca C.; Patel, Lina R.; Jacola, Lisa M. – American Journal on Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, 2021
The current study evaluates the concurrent relationship between parent ratings of executive functioning and maladaptive behavior among children and adolescents with Down syndrome and then repeats this evaluation using teacher reports. Parents and teachers of 63 school-age children with Down syndrome rated the child's executive functioning…

Jazlyn Nketia; Alya Al Sager; Rana Dajani; Diego Placido; Dima Amso – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2024
Understanding executive functions (EFs) development is of high value to global developmental science. Recent calls for a more inclusive and equitable developmental science argue that tasks and questionnaires that are developed using only a subset of the population are not likely to be appropriate for EFs measurement in global contexts unless…

Faja, Susan; Clarkson, Tessa; Gilbert, Rachel; Vaidyanathan, Akshita; Greco, Gabriella; Rueda, M. Rosario; Combita, Lina M.; Driscoll, Kate – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2022
This randomized, controlled study examined the initial efficacy of an executive function training program for children with autism spectrum disorder. Seventy 7- to 11 year-olds with autism spectrum disorder and intelligence quotients [greater than or equal to]80 were randomly assigned to receive a web-based set of executive function training games…

Background: Youth with ADHD are at risk of academic impairments, dropping out of high school, and dysfunction in young adulthood. Interventions delivered early in high school could prevent these harmful outcomes, yet few high school students with ADHD receive treatment due to limited access to intervention providers. This study will test a…

Yi-Ling Chien; Yueh-Ming Tai; Yen-Nan Chiu; Wen-Che Tsai; Susan Shur-Fen Gau – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
The mediators of real-world executive functions in autism during the transition into adulthood are mainly unknown. This study aimed to identify the mediators for the behavioral and cognitive domains of real-world executive functions in late adolescent and young adult autistic populations. We followed up 289 autistic children (aged 11.6 ± 3.8, male…

Leanne Tamm; Sydney M. Risley; Elizabeth Hamik; Angela Combs; Lauren B. Jones; Jamie Patronick; Tat Shing Yeung; Allison K. Zoromski; Amie Duncan – International Journal of Developmental Disabilities, 2024
Background: Academic challenges such as losing/not turning in assignments, misplacing materials, and inefficient studying are common in middle-school students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) without intellectual disability. Deficits in organization, planning, prioritizing, memory/materials management, and studying skills [i.e. academic…

Slawny, Caitlyn; Crespo, Kimberly; Weismer, Susan Ellis; Kaushanskaya, Margarita – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: There is conflicting evidence regarding effects of bilingualism on inhibition, and the mechanisms that might underlie the effects remain unclear. A prominent account views additional demands on structural language use in bilinguals as being at the root of bilingual effects on inhibition. In this study, we tested the novel hypothesis that…

Warmingham, Jennifer M.; Handley, Elizabeth D.; Russotti, Justin; Rogosch, Fred A.; Cicchetti, Dante – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Decision-making impairments during emerging adulthood confer risk for challenges in social and occupational roles and may increase the odds of developing health problems. Childhood maltreatment is related to maladaptation in cognitive and affective domains (e.g., executive functioning, emotion regulation) implicated in the development of…

Denio, Erin B.; Keane, Susan P.; Dollar, Jessica M.; Calkins, Susan D.; Shanahan, Lilly – Merrill-Palmer Quarterly: Journal of Developmental Psychology, 2020
Peer victimization is a well-established risk factor for children's internalizing problems. We longitudinally examined the moderating role of children's early perceptions of positive peer relationships and inhibitory control on the association between peer victimization at age 6 and internalizing symptoms at age 10. Perceptions of peer…

Brewe, Alexis M.; Simmons, Grace Lee; Capriola-Hall, Nicole N.; White, Susan W. – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2020
Adults with autism spectrum disorder often experience co-occurring mental health problems such as attention-deficit/hyperactivity-disorder, as well as impairments in executive function. Sluggish cognitive tempo, a cluster of behaviors including slow processing, daydreaming, and mental fogginess, has been shown to be associated with…

Cioffi, Camille C.; Griffin, Amanda M.; Natsuaki, Misaki N.; Shaw, Daniel S.; Reiss, David; Ganiban, Jody M.; Neiderhiser, Jenae M.; Leve, Leslie D. – Developmental Psychology, 2021
Understanding the role of negative emotionality in the development of executive functioning (EF) and language skills can help identify developmental windows that may provide promising opportunities for intervention. In addition, because EF and language skills are, in part, genetically influenced, intergenerational transmission patterns are…

Ferrier, David E.; Karalus, Samantha P.; Denham, Susanne A.; Bassett, Hideko H. – Early Child Development and Care, 2018
Between three and five years of age, both emotional competence (EC) and cognitive self-regulation (CSR) have been documented as undergoing remarkable growth and as being strong predictors of concurrent and future positive outcomes. EC encompasses three interrelated and progressively developing skills: emotion knowledge, emotion regulation, and…

Schott, N.; Holfelder, B. – Journal of Intellectual Disability Research, 2015
Background: Previous studies suggest that children with Down's syndrome (DS), a genetically based neurodevelopmental disorder, demonstrate motor problems and cognitive deficits. The first aim of this study was to examine motor skills and executive functions (EFs) in school-age children with DS. The second aim was to investigate the relationship…
