  • Latent structure of executive function in preschoolers

    Open AccessAlessia Bandettini, David Giofrè et al.ARTICLECognitive Development2025

    In the last decades, an impressive amount of research demonstrated the importance of the early development of executive function for concurrent and subsequent psychological development and adjustment. Nevertheless, the structure of executive function in this age range is still a matter of debate. The present systematic review and meta-analysis followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) Statement and f…

  • Inhibitory control and verb inflection in Italian preschool children

    Open AccessElena Gandolfi, Maria Carmen Usai et al.ARTICLEJournal of Child Language2023

    The study investigates whether Italian verbal inflectional morphology is associated with inhibitory control skills after controlling for receptive vocabulary and verbal working memory. A sample of Italian preschoolers aged 4;0 to 6;0 was assessed using a standardized inhibitory control task tapping two different inhibitory skills (response inhibition and interference suppression), and a morphological task requiring simple and complex inflections …

    Open AccessChiara Malagoli, Carlo Chiorri et al.ARTICLEPsychological Research2022

    The Impulsivity/Reflexivity issue in inhibitory control ability has seldom been investigated in terms of individual differences in typically developing populations. Although there is evidence of changes in executive functioning (EF), including inhibition, in adolescence, very little is known about the role of individual differences. Using the data from 240 14-to-19-year-old high school students who completed a battery of EF tasks (Flanker, Go No-…

    Research Findings: Promoting inhibitory control in preschoolers could increase the likelihood of positive developmental trajectories. Nevertheless, to date only a limited number of studies have focused on inhibitory control training, reporting mixed results. To examine the efficacy and the transfer effects of the training on preschoolers, seven group games based on body movement were developed and administered across 15 sessions of 30 minutes eac…
