Zhao, Xin; Chen, Ling; Maes, Joseph H. R. – Developmental Science, 2018
Response inhibition is crucial for mental and physical health but studies assessing the trainability of this type of inhibition are rare. Thirty-nine children aged 10-12 years and 46 adults aged 18-24 years were assigned to an adaptive go/no-go inhibition training condition or an active control condition. Transfer of training effects to…

Participants attempted to solve an insight problem while…
