Description & Coverage
Description:

Executive functions develop during the first years of life and determine future learning and personal development. Executive dysfunction is related to various neurodevelopmental disorders, so its study is of great interest for intervention in children with neurotypical development and in those who have suffered a neurodevelopmental disorder.

The Handbook of Research on Neurocognitive Development of Executive Functions and Implications for Intervention offers updated research on executive functions and their implication in psychoeducational intervention. It establishes a multidisciplinary context to discuss both intervention experience and research results in different areas of knowledge. Covering topics such as childhood inhibitory processing, mindfulness interventions, and language development, this major reference work is an excellent resource for psychologists, medical professionals, researchers, academicians, educators, and students.

Coverage:

The many academic areas covered in this publication include, but are not limited to:

  • Cerebral Palsy
  • Childhood Inhibitory Processing
  • Cognitive-Motor Task Interventions
  • Conversational Competence
  • Executive Function Development
  • Intervention in Executive Functions
  • Language Development
  • Mindfulness Interventions
  • Neurodevelopment
  • Perceptual Inhibition
  • Selective Attention
  • Socio-Cognitive Abilities
