Dimensions of executive functioning: Evidence from children (2003, background): “Baddeley, 1996; Burgess, 1997; Miyake et al., 2000; Robbins, 1998; Shallice & Burgess, 1998) have preferred to take a fragmentary view of executive functioning, as something which includes relatively independent subfunctions. Miyake et al.’s recent study (2000) proposed, based on a review of the lit”
Construct validity of the Trail Making Test: Role of task-switching, working memory, inhibition/interference control, and visuomotor abilities (2009, methodology): “In accordance to Arbuthnott and Frank ( 2000 ), a relationship between TMT-B and inhibitory abilities has been supported on the basis of signifi cant correlations between TMT and the Stroop Interference condition (Chaytor et al., 2006 ; Spikman et al., 2001 ).”
Task switching: interplay of reconfiguration and interference control. (2010, background): “Nevertheless, some studies found both a switch cost and a lag-2 repetition cost (Mayr, 2001, 2002; Mayr & Keele, 2000), whereas others found only one of these effects consistently (Arbuthnott & Frank, 2000; Arbuthnott & Woodward, 2002).”
