Executive functions (EFs) are a set of cognitive processes used for effortful self-regulation of
behaviour. They include inhibition, working memory, cognitive flexibility and, in some …

Inhibitory control (IC) plays a central role in behaviour control allowing an individual to resist
external lures and internal predispositions. While IC has been consistently investigated in …

Both ontogenetic and phylogenetic factors have shaped dogs' cognitive capabilities,
resulting in a heightened social sensitivity at the apparent cost of non-social problem-solving …

The ability to control impulsive actions is an important executive function that is central to the
self-regulation of behaviours and, in humans, can have important implications for mental …

Inhibitory control describes a multitude of cognitive processes that prevents an impulsive
response and enables a more appropriate behavior in a given situation. The ability to inhibit …

Executive functions (EFs) are cognitive processes that are used to effortfully self-regulate
behaviour and might be important for dogs' success in working and pet roles. Currently …

The ability to inhibit prepotent actions towards rewards that are made inaccessible by
transparent barriers has been considered to reflect capacities for inhibitory control (IC) …

Dog guides (Canis familiaris) fulfil important roles for their handlers. However, the process of
training working dogs is costly, and many dogs fail training due to behavioural issues …

The cylinder task, which requires detouring around an obstacle to retrieve a reward, is a
popular method for assessing inhibitory control in dogs and other species. However …

Inhibitory control is a term used to envelop a collection of processes that allow an organism
to refrain from engaging in an inappropriate prepotent or responsive behavior. Studies have …
