Parents and teachers rated children's behaviour and executive functions before and after treatment.
In addition, we found that, although the attentional networks have some functional independence, they modulate each other to bring about changes in adaptive behaviour and executive functions.
With the first study we hope to gain insight in the short and long-term effects of the working memory – and executive function intervention on neuropsychological functioning, academic performance, behaviour in class, behaviour problems and functioning in every day life.
(1) The aim of the first study is to examine the effects of a working memory – and executive function training on academic performance, neurocognitive functioning, behaviour in class, behaviour problems and quality of life of children with AD(H D between the age of 8 and 12 years.
The interviews were semistructured and included questions about changes in behaviour and cognitive function (eg, memory, intellectual ability, visuospatial function, language and executive function), personality changes, psychiatric symptoms, activities of daily living, and in the case of dementia, onset age and disease course, as described previously.
Subsequently, participants completed processing speed and executive function tests.
It lacks assessment for frontal and executive function.
These are with visuo-motor speed and executive function.
Training attention and executive function also improves gait [ 65, 66].
LRRK2 mutation-related PD demonstrates better attention and executive function than idiopathic PD, 21 and NMC may have different compensatory executive function.
