Abstract:
Starting from the concept of "executive functions", we proceeded to describe the object under examination in a more complete and functional way, and their possible role in neuropsychology and developmental psychopathology. The use of statistical methods and clinical observation have allowed us to emphasize the understanding of the multicomponential structure of the processes themselves. Paying particular attention to the psychopathological contents listed in the DSM-V psychiatric manual, the main pathological forms were then analyzed to better contextualize the present discussion, also from a psychotherapeutic point of view, with the preferential choice of the strategic approach for the management of pathological disorders related to the deficit of executive functions

Abstract:
Executive functions comprise of top-down cognitive processes that exert control over information processing, from acquiring information to issuing a behavioral response. These cognitive processes of inhibition, working memory, and cognitive flexibility underpin complex cognitive skills, such as episodic memory and planning, which have been repeatedly investigated in several bird species in recent decades. Until recently, avian executive functions were studied in relatively few bird species but have gained traction in comparative cognitive research following MacLean and colleagues’ large-scale study from 2014. Therefore, in this review paper, the relevant previous findings are collected and organized to facilitate further investigations of these core cognitive processes in birds. This review can assist in integrating findings from avian and mammalian cognitive research and further the current understanding of executive functions’ significance and evolution.

Abstract:
Abstract. A growing body of literature suggests that chronic-pain patients suffer from problems in various neuropsychological domains, including executive functioning. In order to better understand which components of executive functioning (inhibition, shifting and/or updating) might be especially affected by pain and which mechanisms might underlie this association, we conducted a systematic review, including both chronic-pain studies as well as experimental-pain studies. The chronic-pain studies (N = 57) show that pain is associated with poorer executive functioning. The findings of experimental-pain studies (N = 28) suggest that this might be a bidirectional relationship: Pain can disrupt executive functioning, but poorer executive functioning might also be a risk factor for higher vulnerability to pain.

Abstract:
Questa tesi offre un'ampia panoramica dello sviluppo di EXecutive-functions Innovative Tool 360° (EXIT 360°), dalla sua progettazione alla validazione come strumento sensibile per la valutazione della funzionalità esecutiva (FE). Identificare strategie precoci per rilevare i deficit esecutivi appare una priorità, dal momento che la disfunzione esecutiva rappresenta un problema significativo a causa del suo impatto sulle attività quotidiane. Pertanto, abbiamo ideato e sviluppato EXIT 360°, un nuovo strumento che sfrutta la tecnologia 360° per una valutazione ecologicamente valida del FE. Si tratta di un nuovo compito fruibile tramite smartphone e visore per la realtà virtuale, in cui i partecipanti devono eseguire sette compiti giornalieri in ambienti domestici. Le tre principali proprietà psicometriche di EXIT 360° —usabilità, validità convergente e di costrutto— sono state il focus degli studi discussi in questa tesi. Gli studi sull'usabilità hanno dimostrato che EXIT 360º debba essere considerato uno strumento tecnologico semplice, usabile e facile da apprendere. Lo studio di validità convergente ha mostrato una correlazione tra i punteggi di EXIT 360° e i test standardizzati carta-e-matita per il FE. Infine, lo studio di validità di costrutto ha mostrato l'efficacia di EXIT 360° nel discriminare il gruppo patologico da quello di controllo, evidenziando una maggiore accuratezza diagnostica rispetto ai test tradizionali. Nel complesso, i risultati offrono una chiara evidenza che EXIT 360° debba essere visto come uno strumento valido e innovativo per una valutazione ecologicamente valida del FE, altamente utilizzabile per una diagnosi tempestiva e l’arruolamento precoce del paziente in una riabilitazione mirata.
This thesis offers a broad overview of EXecutive-functions Innovative Tool 360° (EXIT 360°) development from its concept to validation as a sensitive instrument for evaluating executive functionality (EF). Identifying early strategies to detect executive impairments appears a priority since executive dysfunction represents a significant health problem due to its high negative impact on daily activities. Therefore, we conceptualized and developed EXIT 360°, a new 360°-based instrument for an ecologically valid assessment of EF. It consists of a new task delivered via smartphone and a comfortable head-mounted display, where participants must perform seven everyday subtasks in 360° domestic environments. The three main psychometric properties of EXIT 360°—usability, convergent and construct validity—have been the focus of the studies discussed in this thesis. Usability studies involving patients and healthy subjects showed EXIT 360° is a straightforward, usable, and easy-to-learn technological instrument. Convergent validity study displayed a correlation between EXIT 36o° scores and standardized paper-and-pencil tests for EF. Finally, the construct validity study showed the effectiveness of EXIT 360° in discriminating between pathological and control groups with high precision, displaying its higher diagnostic accuracy compared to traditional tests. Overall, findings offer clear evidence that EXIT 360° must be seen as a valuable and innovative instrument for an ecologically valid evaluation of EF, highly usable for prompt diagnosis and early patient enrolment in focused rehabilitation.

Abstract:
Objective: the relationship between Executive Functions (EFs) and Empathy, in particular Theory of Mind (ToM), is well known, considering neuropsychological performances and the neural correlates underpinning each one. Evidences regarding deficits on ToM skills related to impairment in EFs are nowadays well known in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) and Myothonic dystrophy (DM1). The aim of the present study was the evaluation of ToM and its association with EFs in four neuromuscular diseases in which EFs can be impaired, and so: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), Facioscapulohumeral dystrophy (FSHD) and X-linked Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy (X-SBMA). Moreover, also abilities related to Affective Empathy have been investigated. Methods: the study involved 25 DMD patients, 21 BMD patients, 21 FSHD patients, 64 X-SBMA patients and 145 healthy controls matched for age, education and gender. Both patients and controls completed tests and questionnaires with the aim to assess EFs, ToM and Affective Empathy abilities. Results: deficits in EFs have been found only in DMD patients. EFs impairment resulted to be associated with deficits in ToM ability but also with problems related to Affective Empathy. Conclusions: DMD patients without mental retardation manifest problems on EFs. These deficits are related to impairments in ToM abilities and Affective Empathy skills. These results can give an important contribution to clinical practice: know the Empathic abilities of patients may be useful to clinicians in order to create a good alliance which is extremely useful in the compliance of treatments and therapeutic choices.
Obiettivo: la relazione tra Funzioni Esecutive (EFs) ed Empatia, in particolare la Teoria della Mente (ToM), è ben nota, sia se si considerano le evidenze neuropsicologiche e se si pensa ai correlati neurali che sottostanno a questi costrutti. Oggigiorno sono presenti numerose ricerche, in patologie come la Sclerosi Laterale Amiotrofica (ALS) e la Distrofia Miotonica (DM1), che evidenziano che deficit nelle capacità di ToM sono legati alla compromissione delle EFs. Lo scopo del presente studio è la valutazione delle abilità legate alla ToM e la sua associazione con le EFs in quattro patologie neuromuscolari in cui le EFs possono essere compromesse, quindi la distrofia muscolare di Duchenne (DMD), la distrofia muscolare di Becker (BMD), la distrofia facioscapolomerale (FSHD) e l’atrofia muscolare spinale e bulbare (SBMA). Inoltre, sono state valutate anche le abilità legate all’empatia affettiva. Metodo: lo studio ha previsto il reclutamento di 25 pazienti DMD, 21 pazienti BMD, 21 pazienti FSHD, 64 pazienti SBMA e 145 controlli sani abbinati per età, scolarità e genere. Sia i pazienti che i controlli hanno completato test e questionari allo scopo di valutare le EFs, la ToM e l’empatia affettiva. Risultati: sono stati rilevati deficit nelle EFs solamente nei pazienti affetti da DMD. La compromissione delle EFs è risultata essere associata alla compromissione della ToM e dell’empatia affettiva. Conclusioni. Pazienti affetti da DMD senza ritardo mentale hanno manifestato problemi nelle EFs. Inoltre, questi deficit sono risultati essere legati a problemi nella ToM e nelle abilità di empatia affettiva. Questi risultati possono offrire un importante contributo alla pratica clinica: conoscere la abilità empatiche dei pazienti può essere utile al personale sanitario al fine di creare una buona alleanza con il paziente, cosa estremamente utile se si pensa alla compliance ai trattamenti e alle scelte terapeutiche.

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of acute stress on parallel task performance with the Game of Dice Task (GDT) to measure decision making and the Stroop test.  Two previous studies have found that the combination of stress and a parallel task with the GDT and an executive functions task preserved performance on the GDT for a stress group compared to a control group.  The purpose of this study was to create and use a new parallel task with the GDT and the stroop test to elucidate more information about the executive function contributions from the stroop test and to ensure that this parallel task preserves performance on the GDT for the stress group.  Sixteen participants (Mean Age: 26.88) were randomly assigned to either a stress group with the Trier Social Stress Test (TSST) or the control group with the placebo-TSST.  The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS) and the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) were given before and after the TSST or placebo-TSST and were used as stress indicators.  The results showed a trend towards the stress group performing marginally better than the control group on the GDT but not significantly.  There were no significant differences between the groups for accuracy on the Stroop test trial types.  However, the stress group had significantly slower mean response times on the congruent trial type of the Stroop test, p < .05, though.  This study has shown further evidence that stress and a parallel task together preserve performance on the GDT.

O entendimento de que o desenvolvimento infantil acontece de maneira dinâmica entre fatores biológicos e ambientais sugere que essa fase constitui um período flexível, que pode ser aprimorado através de intervenções. Desta maneira, crianças em idade pré-escolar são simultaneamente vulneráveis às influências do meio e capazes de se beneficiar com intervenções precoces, apontando para a importância do estudo do desenvolvimento cognitivo nesta etapa da vida. Na literatura, as funções executivas são apresentadas como habilidades cognitivas flexíveis, necessárias para a adaptação do ser humano frente às novas situações, articuladas àquelas ações necessárias para alcançar determinado objetivo. Desta forma, o objetivo deste trabalho foi realizar uma revisão bibliográfica referente aos estudos que investigam os estágios iniciais do desenvolvimento destas funções e, a partir disto, elaborar uma proposta para medir as funções executivas de crianças em idade pré-escolar, apontando os benefícios dessas investigações para a área do desenvolvimento infantil. A partir da revisão de literatura, verificou-se a necessidade de publicações nacionais visando à adaptação e validação de instrumentos de avaliação neuropsicológica direcionados às etapas iniciais do desenvolvimento no ciclo vital. O presente estudo apresenta uma ferramenta alternativa que sirva de instrumento para a investigação destas funções ainda na primeira infância.
The understanding that child development occurs through a dynamicinteraction between biological and environmental factors suggests that this phase is a flexible and amenable to improvements through interventions. In this context, pre-school children are simultaneously vulnerable to environmental influences and able to benefit from early interventions, pointing to the importance of understanding cognitive development at this stage of life. In the literature, executive functions are presented as flexible cognitive skills, necessary for the adaptation of the human being to the new situations, articulated to those actions necessary to reach a certain goal. Thus, the goal of this study was to carry out a bibliographic review of studies that investigate the initial stages executive function development and, from this, elaborate a proposal aiming to measure executive functions in pre-school children, pointing out the benefits of these studies in the area of child development. Results indicated the need for national publications aiming at the adaptation and validation of neuropsychological assessment instruments targeting the initial stages of human development.

Abstract:
Background: Several studies demonstrate that healthy elderly people present impairments in different executive functions (for example, inhibition, updating and alternation). However, these works use tasks that measure reaction time as a dependent variable, and it is already known that processing speed decreases with age. Objective: As a consequence of that, this study aimed to test a battery of representative executive tests. This freely accessible battery includes 2 tests for each executive domain (inhibition, updating and alternation), controls the effects of processing speed, as the participants themselves regulate the time of stimulus presentation (paradigm - self-paced) and all responses were given verbally (thus controlling the effect of psychomotor speed). Methods: For this pilot study, 13 healthy elderly females (M=68.23, SD=6.13) were evaluated, each one performed a total of 6 executive tests. For the inferential statistical analysis, the t test of repeated measures with a bootstrap of 5000 resamplings was used. Results: As a result, we observed that in the executive blocks, participants obtained fewer correct answers per unit of time than in the control blocks, demonstrating that the executive block is in fact evaluating an executive function regardless of the processing speed. Conclusion: As a pilot study, this battery proved to be effective and easy to apply in elderly population.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: To identify empirical studies that measured the feasibility and effect of computer-based executive function stimulation and rehabilitation programs in the young and middle adult population. Background: Reviews that evaluate the effectiveness of computerized cognitive training programs on executive functions in different population groups have shown contradictory results, to a certain extent associated with the methodological characteristics of said studies (Gates et al., 2019; 2020); most of them These reviews have focused on older adults (Ten Brinke et al., 2020; Yoo et al., 2015) with stroke sequelae, and adults with cognitive impairment. These studies have found improvements in general cognitive function in older adults (Ten Brinke et al., 2020); however, the effect on executive functions have not been studied. Only one review was carried out on the average adult (Gates et al., 2019); the authors restricted the search to interventions with more than 12 weeks and only found one article with eligibility criteria. Their work concluded that computerized cognitive training in midlife demonstrated lasting effects on general cognitive function after 12 weeks of training and on memory after 24 weeks of training.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Guided by the PRISMA guidelines, this study aims to systematically review and meta-analyze the literature exploring the association between parents’ basic and higher-order executive functions in adulthood (working memory, inhibitory control, cognitive flexibility, planning, reasoning, problem-solving) and positive and negative parenting outcomes (parenting practices, behaviors, styles). Eligibility criteria: his meta-analysis will include: 1) Studies that analyze the association of mothers’/ fathers’ basic and higher-order executive functions in adulthood and parenting outcomes (e.g., parental styles, behaviors, quality of interaction, abusive or violent practices); 2) Quantitative empirical studies (correlational, longitudinal, and group comparison designs); 3) Peer-reviewed articles or dissertations, published in English, Spanish, or Portuguese. The exclusion criteria are: 1) Studies analyzing children’s executive functions; 2) Studies analyzing children’s developmental outcomes; 3) Studies not focusing on parenting outcomes; 4) Qualitative studies, and non-empirical studies such as theoretical reviews, systematic reviews, or meta-analyses.

Computer-based cognitive training programs: effects on executive functions in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: This systematic review aimed to synthesize the existing literature reporting the effects of computer-based cognitive training on the executive functions of children with ADHD. Condition being studied: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most common neurodevelopmental disorder diagnosed in childhood, characterized by a persistent pattern of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Today it is recognized that ADHD is associated with an alteration in the volume and level of activation in prefrontal areas related to executive functions. Based on these clinical findings, some authors suggest that ADHD is not a disorder of primary attention origin but instead responds to an alteration in the synaptic circuits of some brain areas, including the prefrontal neocortex, areas involved in cognitive regulation and control, and processes known as executive functions.

Abstract:
The paper aims to be a useful analytical and managerial support tool for the debt practitioners and for the academia. It provides an appropriate approach for developing countries, and offers a detailed and systematic blueprint in how to establishing an efficient Debt Management Office. This paper differentiates from other papers published on the subject at least in two aspects. The first one is the political relevance that is given to the decision making process as far as responsibility for fixing a global macroeconomic public debt management strategy is concerned. The second is that the approach is a functional analysis, that is, there is no need to have a specific structure for the debt office in order to analyse who and where the functions are carried out. The paper gives a clear and well-defined list of tasks for each one of the functions, and this leads to clear and structured functional responsibilities for the implementation of the back, middle and front office working organization structure. This paper is composed of five sections. The first one is an introduction to the concept of Effective Debt Management Functions. The second and the third are the description of the functions: the second for the Executive Functions, which are not necessarily a Debt Management Office (DMO) responsibility, and the third to the Operational Functions, which are the direct DMO responsibilities. The fourth section is devoted to the responsibilities that a DMO can be accountable for, that may vary from country to country. The last section addresses major issues on debt management, stressing the pragmatic analysis that the functional approach provides. There are two Annexes with open-ended lists of tasks for each one of the Effective Debt Management Functions.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: We aimed to figure out whether perioperative Alzheimer disease biomarkers are associated with postoperative delirium or postoperative cognitive change. Condition being studied: Delirium is an acute change in mental status, characterized by fluctuations in the level of consciousness and lack of concentration. Postoperative deliriumPOD is a specific subset of delirium that is not related to emergence from anesthesia. postoperative cognitive change is a decline in cognitive function, especially in memory and executive functions, that may last from 1-12 months after surgery or longer.

Abstract:
This Technical Note presents a literature review on the Center of Government (CoG). This term refers to the institution or group of institutions that support a country's chief executive (president or prime minister) in leading the political and technical coordination of the government's actions, strategic planning of the government's program, monitoring of performance, and communication of the government's decisions and achievements. These institutions are becoming more and more relevant in a context where an increasing number of crosscutting issues demand whole-of-government approaches and coherent responses. In several countries, the CoG is also increasingly involved in promoting innovations to improve government performance and support departments and agencies in achieving results. This review discusses the conceptual definitions of CoG in the literature; presents their main functions; describes the organization, structure, and management styles of the units typically performing those functions; and analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of the current literature to inform an action-based agenda of CoG strengthening in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Abstract:
There is a growing interest in Latin America and the Caribbean in strengthening the strategic Center of Government (CoG). Stricto sensu, the CoG refers to the institution or group of institutions that provide direct support to the Chief Executive (President or Prime Minister) in the management of government. This paper provides a conceptual framework of the CoG, describing its principal purpose, core functions, and typical structures. In addition, it presents exploratory empirical evidence to analyze to what extent the CoGs in Latin America and the Caribbean are performing these functions. Based on an analysis of the regional trends that will be presented herein, this paper will outline a possible work agenda for CoG strengthening in the region. Finally, the paper proposes an Institutional Development Matrix (IDM) as a tool that can help countries diagnose the capacity gaps between what CoGs are doing and what they should be doing to achieve their stated goals.
