Modular functional brain network organization contributes to training-related changes in task switching in children

This study finds that higher baseline network modularity in children predicts better task-switching training outcomes, including faster improvements in accuracy and speed.

Task-Switch Related Reductions in Neural Distinctiveness in Children and Adults: Commonalities and Differences

This study compares task-switching neural distinctiveness in children and adults using fMRI, finding similar switch-related reductions but differences in regional correlations.

Intensive task-switching training and single-task training differentially affect behavioral and neural manifestations of cognitive control in children

This study compares intensive task-switching training and single-task training in children, finding that task-switching training leads to sustained improvements in cognitive control and neural efficiency.

Does prefrontal connectivity during task switching help or hinder children's performance?

This study examines age differences in frontoparietal connectivity during task switching in children and adults, finding that children's performance is linked to less adult-like activation patterns and increased IFJ-lPFC connectivity.
