The development of executive function in early childhood. (1991, background): “Another version of this account suggests that even 3-year-olds can, in principle, understand alternative descriptions in the DCCS, but that they become much more likely to do so at around 4 years of age (Perner & Lang, 2002).”
The role of selective attention in preschoolers’ rule use in a novel dimensional card sort (2003, background): “Perner and Lang (2002) observed that even 3-year-olds were able to sort cards in both phases of the reversal shift task with little error, presumably because there was no extra-dimensional shift.”
Executive Functions (2012, unknown): “Children only 21/2 years of age can succeed at such tasks (Brooks et al. 2003, Perner & Lang 2002).”
Executive function in preschoolers: a review using an integrative framework. (2008, methodology): “…are response selection, spatial reversal, and color reversal (Brooks, Hanauer, Padowska, & Rosman, 2003; Carlson, 2005; Carlson, Mandell, & Williams, 2004; Casey et al., 2001; Espy et al., 1999, 2001; Kloo & Perner, 2003; Perner & Lang, 2002; Senn, Espy, & Kaufmann, 2004; Silverman, 1966).”
Do humans have two systems to track beliefs and belief-like states? (2009, background): “…years ; 6 they are closely tied to developments in language and executive function ( Astington & Baird , 2005 ; Pellicano , 2007 ; Perner , 1998 ; Perner & Lang , 1999 , 2002 ; Sabbagh , 2006 ; Zelazo , Jacques , Burack , & Frye , 2002 ) ; they may be facilitated by explicit training and…”
The development of executive function in childhood (2008, background): “…to elucidate the early development of executive skills (Brooks, Hanauer, Padowska, & Rosman, 2003; Carroll, Apperly, & Riggs, 2007; Diamond, Carlson, & Beck, 2005; Espy & Bull, 2005; Kirkham et al., 2003; Kloo & Perner, 2005; Perner & Lang, 2002; Simpson & Riggs, 2005, 2006; Zelazo et al., 2003).”
