A primary aim of the neuropsychological revolution has been the mapping of what has come to be known as executive function (EF). This term encompasses a range of mental processes such as working memory, inhibitory control, and cognitive flexibility. In this book, scientists from a variety of fields investigate executive function as it develops in early childhood.
