Gómez-Pérez, M. Mar; Calero, M. Dolores – High Ability Studies, 2023
Interpersonal Skills (ISs) and Executive Functions (EFs) are two groups of skills which are extremely relevant for children's cognitive, social and psychological development. As well as being interrelated, both can be modulated by other variables such as intelligence or sex. Many studies have tried to establish the relationship between them, but…

Cruz, Sara; Cruz, Raquel; Alcón, Alicia; Sampaio, Adriana; Merchan-Naranjo, Jessica; Rodríguez, Elisa; Parellada, Mara; Carracedo, Ángel; Fernández-Prieto, Montse – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Dysexecutive syndrome has been consistently reported in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). Particularly, impairments have been documented in working memory, inhibition, and mental flexibility. However, the relationship between executive impairments and intellectual functioning is far from clear in this population. This…

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…

Blankenship, Tashauna L.; Calkins, Susan D.; Bell, Martha Ann – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2022
Item recognition and temporal order memory follow different developmental trajectories during middle childhood, with item recognition performance stabilizing and temporal order memory performance continuing to improve. We investigated the potential unique role of individual executive functions on item recognition and temporal order memory during…

Zhao, Gai; Zhang, Haibo; Hu, Mingming; Wang, Daoyang; Wang, Yanpei; Pan, Zhiying; Wang, Yao; Tao, Sha – Developmental Psychology, 2023
This study examined the longitudinal associations of various executive function components with subsequent psychiatric problems in Chinese school-age children. Data from 1,639 children (44.36% girls) ages 6-13 years were drawn from the Children School Functions and Brain Development project. Executive function components were assessed by the…

Fusinska-Korpik, Agnieszka; Gacek, Michal – Journal of Intellectual & Developmental Disability, 2022
Background: In this study we aimed to explore how intelligence and executive functioning are related to decision-making regarding social situations in persons with mild ID. Method: We studied 80 vocational school students with mild ID; the controls were 80 students of a similar age. We assessed decision-making ability with the Important Life…

Hung, Cathy On-Ying; Loh, Elizabeth Ka-Yee – Educational Psychology, 2021
The present study aims to examine the contribution of cognitive flexibility to metalinguistic skills and reading comprehension during primary school years. Forty-nine third-grade primary school children completed the measures of cognitive flexibility, metalinguistic skills including syntactic awareness (word order knowledge), morphosyntactic skill…

Lee, Sungyoon – Reading Psychology, 2023
The purpose of the study is to examine the role of spatial ability and attention shifting in reading of illustrated science texts. Thirty-five fourth/fifth elementary students read two science texts. Prior knowledge and retention/transfer learning outcomes were measured using researcher-developed measures. While reading, students' eye movements…

Bianco, Federica; Lombardi, Elisabetta; Lecce, Serena; Marchetti, Antonella; Massaro, Davide; Valle, Annalisa; Castelli, Ilaria – Journal of Cognition and Development, 2021
The present study evaluated: (1) the effects of two training programs designed for promoting Theory of Mind (ToM) skills in children aged 7/8; and (2) the relations between second-order recursive thinking (II-order-RT), advanced-ToM (Adv_ToM) and metacognition. Ninety-one 7- to 8-year-old children were assigned to one of three training conditions:…

Words versus Pictures: Bilingual Performance on Verbal and Pictorial Measures of Executive Functions
Alateeq, Halah; Azuma, Tamiko – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2022
Purpose: This study examined bilinguals' performance on functional executive function map tasks such as the Zoo Map from the Behavioural Assessment of the Dysexecutive Syndrome and the extent to which working memory, set-shifting, and inhibition measures predicted bilinguals' performance on these tasks. Additionally, we explored the utility of…
