Changes and challenges in 20 years of research into the development of executive functions (2011, background): “18 conflicting rules (Zelazo, Muller, Frye, & Marcovitch, 2003) or to overcome prepotent thoughts / acts (Diamond, 2002) or latent representations (Munakata, 2001).”
Developing together: The role of executive function and motor skills in children’s early academic lives (2019, neutral): “For young children, although maturational changes play a key role, cognitive processes can also be highly variable (Diamond, 2002; McClelland et al., 2015).”
A Latent Variable Approach to Determining the Structure of Executive Function in Preschool Children (2012, result): “On the one hand, these findings are consistent with the proposal that working memory and inhibition are separable components of EF in young children (Diamond, 2002).”
Assessment of Hot and Cool Executive Function in Young Children: Age-Related Changes and Individual Differences (2005, result): “…were found for all four measures of EF, consistent with the notion that both hot and cool aspects of EF develop rapidly during the preschool years (e.g., Zelazo & Müller, 2002)—a period during which PFC as a whole undergoes considerable growth (e.g., see Diamond, 2002; Fuster, 2002, for reviews).”
Immature frontal lobe contributions to cognitive control in children: evidence from fMRI. (2002, methodology): “…(Jernigan et al., 1991; Pfefferbaum et al., 1993; Sowell et al., 2001), Summary synaptogenesis (Huttenlocher, 1979), and resting metabolism (Chugani et al., 1987; for reviews, see Casey Event-related fMRI was employed to characterize dif- et al., 2000a; Gaillard et al., 2001; Diamond, 2002).”
The Elusive Nature of Executive Functions: A Review of our Current Understanding (2007, methodology): “A simplified version of the Stroop test, for instance, is the Day/ Night task where children are instructed to say “night” to a picture of the sun, and “day” to a picture of the moon (Diamond 2002; Gerstadt et al. 1994).”
Executive function in preschoolers: a review using an integrative framework. (2008, background): “Diamond (2001, 2002), for example, argues that working memory and inhibition are dissociable components that have different developmental trajectories.”
Executive Control in Bilingual Language Processing (2006, background): “Cognitive control develops gradually in infants and is thought to be related to the slow maturation of the prefrontal cortex (PFC; see review in Diamond, 2002).”
Cognitive gains in 7-month-old bilingual infants (2009, background): “Although EF are immature in infancy (20), circumstances that require the extensive use of such mechanisms may accelerate their development.”
Progressive increase of frontostriatal brain activation from childhood to adulthood during event‐related tasks of cognitive control (2006, background): “…mediated by left hemispheric dorsolateral prefrontal, striatal, and parietal brain areas as shown for the stimulus-response incompatibility effects in the ColorWord Stroop [Banich et al., 2001, 2000; Carter et al., 2000; Fan et al., 2003] and the Simon tasks [Diamond, 2002; Liu et al., 2004].”
