Developmental Changes in Cognitive ControlTemporal Dynamics of Task Performance across Trial Sequences
Developmental studies of cognitive control indicated that control processes develop gradually during childhood through adulthood. The focus of this thesis is on developmental change in performance adjustments across trial sequences in relatively simple reaction time tasks. The results yielded robust developmental trends across an age range between 5 and 25 years. Collectively, however, the results question the idea that developmental change in trial-to-trial performance adaptation is guided by maturational changes in top-down cognitive control.
