Childhood poverty: specific associations with neurocognitive development. (2006, background): “This brain region undergoes prolonged postnatal development (e.g., Casey et al., 2000; Fuster, 2002), as does its functional connectivity with other brain regions (e.g., Malkova et al., 2000), providing maximal opportunity for the different life experiences of lower and higher SES to influence the…”
Brain On Stress: Vulnerability and Plasticity of the Prefrontal Cortex Over the Life Course (2013, neutral): “The human prefrontal cortex undergoes a prolonged course of maturation that continues well after puberty and parallels a slowly emerging ability for flexible social behavior (Casey et al., 2000; Nelson and Guyer, 2011).”
The neural architecture of emotion regulation (2007, background): “PFC is known to undergo a rapid growth spurt between the ages of 8 and 12 that continues into one’s late 20s (Luna et al., 2001), and behavioral development of “cold” forms of cognitive control is known to track these structural developments (Casey, Giedd, & Thomas, 2000).”
Exercise and Children’s Intelligence, Cognition, and Academic Achievement (2008, background): “Advances have been made relatively recently that provide an understanding of children’s brain development and the relation of specific brain regions to performance on cognitive tasks (Amso and Casey 2006; Casey et al. 2000; Diamond 2002).”
The social re-orientation of adolescence: a neuroscience perspective on the process and its relation to psychopathology (2005, background): “While rapid and dramatic changes occur in the affective node of the SIPN at the onset of puberty, resulting in powerful emotional urges for sexual behavior independence and the formation of new social bonds (Steinberg & Morris, 2001), the maturation of the cognitive node lags behind by several years”
Age differences in sensation seeking and impulsivity as indexed by behavior and self-report: evidence for a dual systems model. (2008, background): “Between childhood and adolescence, there appears to be an increase in focal activation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (Adleman et al., 2002; Casey, Giedd, & Thomas, 2000; Durston et al., 2002; Luna et al., 2001; Tamm, Menon, & Reiss, 2002).”
White matter in learning, cognition and psychiatric disorders. (2008, neutral): “Individual differences in normal cognitive development [16, 18 ,19] ,I Q[20,21], normal variation in reading skill [22‐24], working memory [22,25] and musical proficiency [26,27] are correlated with differences in white matter structure in specific brain regions mediating these tasks.”
Socioeconomic Disparities Affect Prefrontal Function in Children (2009, background): “The human PFC has a prolonged period of postnatal development (eg, Fuster, 2002 ; Casey, Giedd, & Thomas, 2000 ), and major stages of cognitive development are associated with development of the PFC (Johnson, 1997 ).”
The Adolescent Brain (2008, background): “Many behavioral paradigms, together with fMRI, have assessed the neurobiological basis of these abilities, including flanker, Stroop, and go/no-go tasks (Casey et al. 1997; Casey et al. 2000; Durston et al. 2003).”
A unitary executive function predicts intelligence in children (2012, background): “from a neuropsychological perspective: the three executive functions of interest are all commonly associated with activation of the prefrontal cortex (Duncan & Owen, 2000), and neuroimaging studies have found that activation of the prefrontal cortex is more diffuse in children than adults (Casey et ”
