The Elusive Nature of Executive Functions: A Review of our Current Understanding (2007, background): “…suggest that there is a relationship between aging and changes in the abilities mediated by the executive system (West 1996; Plumet et al. 2005; de Luca et al. 2003; Keys and White 2000; Mejia et al. 1998; Fisk and Sharp 2004), but the specific nature of this relationship remains to be clarified.”
Changes and challenges in 20 years of research into the development of executive functions (2011, positive): “…and strategic thinking are typically reported to emerge later and to show age-related improvements throughout adolescence (P. Anderson, Anderson, & Garth, 2001; P. Anderson, Anderson, & Lajoie, 1996; De Luca et al., 2003; Krikorian, Bartok, & Gay, 1994; Welsh, Pennington, & Groisser, 1991).”
Performance on the A-not-B Task of Argentinean Infants from Unsatisfied and Satisfied Basic Needs Homes (2005, neutral): “…problem solving, organized search, abstract thinking, concept formation, inhibitory control, selfmonitoring and cognitive flexibility (Anderson, 1998; Anderson, Anderson, Northam, Jacobs, & Catroppa, 2001; De Luca et al., 2003; Hughes, 2002; Miyake, Friedman, Emerson, Witzki, & Howerter, 2000).”
Development of cognitive control and executive functions from 4 to 13 years: evidence from manipulations of memory, inhibition, and task switching. (2006, neutral): “While some cognitive abilities develop early, executive functions do not reach their peak until early adulthood (DeLuca et al., 2003; Diamond, 2002; Fischer, Biscaldi, & Gezeck, 1997; Harnishfeger & Pope, 1996; Kail, 1991a, b, c; Kail & Salthouse, 1994; Luciana & Nelson, 2002; Luciana, Conklin, Hoop”
The development of prospective memory in children: An executive framework (2014, background): “…control rely on development of the prefrontal cortex, which slowly matures over childhood and adolescence and reaches maturity in the early 20s (e.g., Anderson, Anderson, Northam, Jacobs, & Catroppa, 2001; Blakemore & Choudhury, 2006; De Luca et al., 2003; Huizinga, Dolan, & van der Molen, 2006).”
The Development of Graphophonological-Semantic Cognitive Flexibility and Its Contribution to Reading Comprehension in Beginning Readers (2010, background): “Similarly, research on executive function shows cognitive flexibility improves with age (Davidson et al., 2006; De Luca et al., 2003) and develops more slowly than other executive functions such as inhibitory control and working memory (De Luca et al.).”
Aperiodic EEG and 7T MRSI evidence for maturation of E/I balance supporting the development of working memory through adolescence (2024, methodology): “Participants preformed the Spatial Span Test from the Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery (CANTAB) (De Luca et al., 2003) that assesses working memory capacity.”
