We describe an ambitious ongoing study that has been strongly influenced and inspired by
Don Stuss's career-long efforts to identify key cognitive processes that characterize …

Theoretical models suggest that executive functions rely on both domain-general and
domain-specific processes. Supporting this view, prior brain imaging studies have revealed …

As assessed by numerous neuropsychological tasks, individuals with autism spectrum
disorder (ASD) and schizophrenia spectrum disorders (SSDs) have similar impairments …

Objective: This article aimed to review the unity and diversity model of executive functions,
examining its historical evolution, exploring general versus specific executive functions, and …

Executive functions can be classified into processes of inhibition, working memory and
shifting, which together support flexible and goal-directed behaviour and are crucial for both …
