Conceptions of executive function and regulation: When and to what degree do they overlap?

Abstract: Until recently, work on executive function (EF) and on emotionrelated self-regulation proceeded on separate tracks with relatively little overlap. EF, especially that of children, was the domain of neuroscientists, clinicians, and educational psychologists interested in academic or cognitive functioning (e.g.,

“…By its link with basic temperament traits, EC excludes complex cognitions and strategies. Historically, working memory has also been excluded, but Zhou and colleagues (Eisenberg & Zhou, ; Zhou et al., ) concluded in their literature reviews that working memory is probably part of or closely related to EC. Whether this is due to a shared attention component is unclear.…”

“…Whether this is due to a shared attention component is unclear. The nascent confirmatory and exploratory factor analytic literature, while complex, generally puts EC and EF trait/task measures, including measures of working memory, on the same factor when measurement type is taken into account (Duckworth & Kern, ; Eisenberg & Zhou, ; Sulik et al., ).…”

“…It should be noted that in both EF and EC constructs, the regulation/control of cognitive processes and behaviors is voluntary and goal-directed rather than reactive and involuntary (Diamond, 2006; Urscahe, Blair, Stifter, & Voegtline, 2013). Thus, both EF and EC constructs overlap considerably with the construct of effortful self-regulation (Esienberg & Zhou, in press). …”
