Texto completoExecutive Functioning (EF) som planering, organisation, uppmärksamhet och självkontroll har stor inverkan på livskvaliteten, men är sårbara för åldrande. En faktor som kan bidra till att upprätthålla och stärka EF är Occupational Complexity (OC), graden av komplexitet i ens främsta yrke i livet. Högre OC har förknippats med högre EF-prestanda i ålderdom. Emellertid var få av dessa resultat baserade på den senaste yrkes taxonomin (Occupational Network Information; O*NET) som bäst kan återspegla dagens jobb. Den nuvarande studien ökar denna knappa kunskapskomponent genom att undersöka EF, som konceptualiserats av Miyake, et al. (2000) och OC med O*NET. Data från Umeå Healthy Aging longitudinell studiedatabas analyserades med hjälp av strukturell ekvationsmodellering för att testa förhållandet mellan EF, OC och deras komponentkonstruktioner. Resultat från 227 deltagare visade att individer med högre OC hade högre EF under sent liv, men denna förening var inte statistiskt signifikant (nästan alla p-värden <0,05), vilket tyder på att det inte fanns någon sådan associering i det aktuella urvalet.

Cotton, Sarah May. "Executive functioning in methamphetamine psychosis". Doctoral thesis, University of Cape Town, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8714.
Texto completoAn association between methamphetamine dependence and neurocognitive impairment has long been established. However, there are a number of research gaps. First, while evidence suggests that the primary cognitive domains affected in methamphetamine dependence are executive functions; previous research fails to employ a comprehensive battery of executive functioning tests. Second, there is little research investigating the specific neuropsychological impairments associated with methamphetamine psychosis in particular. Third, ADHD is highly co-morbid with substance dependence. Symptoms of ADHD were therefore investigated as possible confounders in this study. Fourth, few studies of methamphetamine dependence have explored relationships between neuropsychological data and cortical thickness data; the current study therefore investigated this further. The current study employed a neuropsychological test battery to compare executive functioning across three groups; a methamphetamine dependent group without psychosis (n = 20), a methamphetamine dependent group with psychosis (n =19) and a healthy control group (n = 20); demographically matched. Brain images were acquired using a Siemens Magnetom Allegra 3T system with a high-resolution, T1-weighted, 3D-multiecho MPRAGE sequence with the following scan parameters: TR=2530ms; graded TE=1.53, 3.21, 4.89, 6.57ms; flip angle=7°; FOV=256mm; slice thickness=1mm; 160 slices; and acquisition duration of 10.49 min. Cortical thickness was assessed employing a surface-based cortical reconstruction and automatic labelling tool in the FreeSurfer software package. Four executive domains were identified and evaluated, namely decision making and impulsivity; inhibitory control and setshifting; attention and working memory; and verbal fluency. One-way ANOVAs were conducted in order to assess differences between groups. Analyses indicated significant between group differences on most tasks of executive functioning. Overall the methamphetamine psychosis (MA+) group performed more poorly than the methamphetamine non-psychosis (MA-) group and the controls (NC). Statistically significant between-group differences were observed on inhibitory control and set-shifting (p < .001), attention and working memory (p = .006), and on tasks of generativity (p < .001). Spearman's correlational analyses revealed that in general, executive impairment was associated with cortical thinning of frontal regions in the MA+ group and cortical thickening of frontal regions in the MA- group. This may be reflective of a compensatory response to methamphetamine toxicity in the MA- group. In conclusion, executive functioning was significantly impaired in the MA- group and even more so in the MA+ group. Symptoms of ADHD were not found to be significantly correlated with executive functioning data. Therefore executive dysfunction is more likely the result of MA toxicity than a pre-existing ADHD disorder. An improved understanding of the neuropsychology and neuroanatomy of methamphetamine dependence may ultimately contribute to the clinical management of these individuals.

Adolescence is a period of social, physical, and neurobiological transitions that may leave individuals more vulnerable to the development of symptoms such as anxiety, depression, aggression, and delinquency. Self-regulation affects these outcomes in adolescence; however, individuals demonstrate growth in self-regulation abilities at different rates. Thus, the current study sought to examine how differences in self-regulation (specifically, executive functioning (EF)) development over time may contribute to different behavioral and emotional symptoms in adolescence. Data were collected from 167 adolescents and their primary caregiver over approximately three years. At each time point, adolescents completed three behavioral tasks that capture EF, and both adolescents and their primary caregiver completed measures of adolescent symptoms. Results showed that there were no significant associations between initial levels of EF and symptoms, or between growth in EF and growth in symptoms. Furthermore, different aspects of EF (such as memory, attention, and inhibitory control) did not differentially predict symptomatology. However, additional analyses revealed that increases in growth of EF over time predicted lower symptoms of aggression and delinquency at Time 3. Findings suggest that those with more rapid EF development may be better able to regulate behavioral and emotional states and thus be less likely to develop these types of symptoms, and that both early levels and growth in EF may be important predictors of adolescent outcomes.

Texto completoThis thesis examined inhibition, executive functioning and their possible relation to childhood problems of hyperactivity and inattention, in its clinical form referred to as Attention Deficit Hyper-activity Disorder (ADHD). Concurrent as well as longitudinal relations were of interest, and both clinical and non-clinical samples were studied.
Study I demonstrated concurrent relations between executive inhibition and both hyperactivity and conduct problems in preschool. However, the relation between inhibition and conduct problems could be attributed to the large overlap between hyperactivity and conduct problems.
In Study II, linear relations were found between executive inhibition and hyperactivity, whereas inhibition to the unfamiliar was related to hyperactivity, social initiative, as well as social anxiety. Non-linear analyses showed that children with high levels of both types of inhibition were at risk for developing low social initiative and social anxiety, whereas children with low levels of inhibition were at risk for developing hyperactivity, but at the same time protected from social anxiety.
In Study III, executive inhibition was longitudinally related to ADHD symptoms in both school and at home for boys, but only in the school context for girls. Executive inhibition was also related to more general executive functioning deficits, and concurrent relations were found between executive functioning and ADHD symptoms, although in both cases only for boys. Inhibition and executive functioning made independent contributions to the understanding of ADHD symptoms for boys, and together explained about half the variance in inattention problems.
In Study IV, group differences were found between ADHD children and controls for both inhibition and various other executive function measures. These measures also discriminated well between groups. The best model, which included measures tapping inhibition, working memory and emotion regulation, classified 86% of the children correctly.
In summary, the results of the present thesis were mostly supportive of Barkley’s hybrid model of ADHD, although it should be noted that the question of whether inhibition should be regarded as primary to other executive functions requires further investigation.
