Inner Speech: Development, Cognitive Functions, Phenomenology, and Neurobiology (2015, background): “This in turn could have implications for the understanding of cognitive strengths and weaknesses seen in ASD, such as problems with theory of mind and executive functioning skills (Baron-Cohen, Leslie, & Frith, 1985; Russell, 1997).”
Are intuitive physics and intuitive psychology independent? A test with children with Asperger Syndrome. (2001, background): “To date, the only cognitive account to attempt to explain this aspects of the syndrome is the executive dysfunction theory (Ozonoff, Rogers, Farnham & Pennington, 1994; Pennington et al., 1997; Russell, 1997).”
Private Speech and Executive Functioning among High-Functioning Children with Autistic Spectrum Disorders (2007, unknown): “…memory performance of normally developing children benefits from using to-be-recalled stimuli that have readily available verbal labels, autistic children do not appear to benefit from the use of verbally encodable stimuli, even when groups are comparable on general language (Russell, 1997).”
The Development of Play (2015, unknown): “planning, inhibition, and set shifting (C. Hughes, Russell, & Robbins, 1994; Russell, 1997).”
Theory of mind and autism: A review (2000, background): “Or it might reflect a failure to switch attention flexibly from ‘reality mode’ to ‘pretend mode’, as a result of some aspect of executive function (Russell, 1997).”
How specific is the relation between executive function and theory of mind? Contributions of inhibitory control and working memory (2002, background): “Third, both EF and ToM are deficient in autistic individuals (Ozonoff et al., 1991; Hughes et al., 1994; Russell, 1997), again consistent with the view that these skills are cognitively bound together.”
Limitations and transformations of habitus in Child-Directed Communication (2005, background): “Moreover, children with autism have difficulties with planning and executing actions (Hughes and Russell, 1993; Russell, 1997; Turner, 1997).”
Autism and the Social World: An Anthropological Perspective (2004, background): “…executive function disorder resulting in compromised problem-solving abilities, particularly as required to plan a goal-directed course of action amidst changeable, relatively unstructured environmental circumstances (Hughes, 2001; Ozonoff et al., 1991; Russell, 1997; Zelazo et al., 2001).”

Human Reasoning and Cognitive Science (2008, background): “Russell’s executive function deficit (ED) theory [191] takes yet another cluster of symptoms as basic: the observation that autists often exhibit severe perseveration.”
