The Multidimensional Development Of Executive Functioning

DescriereAplicatiile practice, interpretarile si concluziile din aceasta lucrare pot contribui semnificativ la optimizarea strategiilor de instruire a copiilor.Investigatiile autoarei propun o perspectiva dinamica asupra celor trei componente esentiale ale functionarii executive: memoria de lucru, inhibitia si comutarea atentiei, la copiii cu dezvoltare tipica si atipica. Ea abordeaza dezvoltarea multidimensionala a FE (functionarea executiva) din perspectiva neuropsihologiei cognitive a dezvoltarii.Interesul investigativ este orientat in mod special spre memoria de lucru - o dimensiune esentiala a FE, in cazul prescolarilor si al scolarilor cu dezvoltare tipica, dar si spre impactul anxietatii si al tulburarilor genetice (sindromul Down).SummaryTheoretical and empirical cornerstones in executive functioning research - A standardized developmental neuropsychological approach to EF - Executive (dys)functioning in developmental neuropathology: the case of childhood epilepsy - A piecemeal approach to EF during development: the case of short-term memory (STM) - The impact of anxiety on working memory development (WM) during the preschool years - Executivve functioning in conditions with genetic etiology: memory performance in case of Down syndrome - Putting the pieces together: inhibition, shifting and working memory in typical development - Executive functioning development: conclusion, implications and future directions.
