“…A recent meta-analysis reported what appears to be a reliable effect of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation for improving working memory (SMD=1.35 [95% CI, 0.95–1.76]; P <0.05), but no reliable effect of transcranial direct current stimulation for improving working memory (SMD=0.23 [95% CI, 0.23–0.70]; P >0.05). 100 Nonetheless, this meta-analysis was conducted with only a few available studies, suggesting that this body of research is in the early stages of development.…”

Executive function is frequently impaired among people who have sustained stroke. This review provides an overview of definitions, concepts, and measures. The review also summarizes current best evidence examining executive function impairment and recovery trajectories after stroke, correlates of change over time, and emerging intervention research. Finally, this review provides recommendations for research and clinical practices, as well as priorities for future executive function research.

“…The results suggest that the investigation of the DLPFC using DTT would be useful for neuro-rehabilitation in patients with shortterm memory impairment following mild TBI; particularly, neuromodulation. For example, recently developed noninvasive brain stimulation therapies such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation or transcranial direct current stimulation can be applied to the DLPFC to facilitate the recovery of short-term memory impairment in patients with mild TBI [16,17]. However, further studies on this topic should be warranted.…”

“…specially, the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) among the PFC is an important neural structure in short-term memory [11,15]. Therefore, elucidating the relationship between short-term memory impairment and the DLPFC injury following TBI would be important in terms of rehabilitation; especially, for neuromodulation such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct-current electrical stimulation [16,17]. However, it has not been clearly elucidated so far.…”

Background: The prefrontal cortex (PFC) has been reported to be related to memory function. Especially, the dorsolateral PFC (DLPFC) is a substantial neural structure in short-term memory. In this study, using diffusion tensor tractography (DTT), we investigated the relationship between short-term memory impairment and the DLPFC injury in patients with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: We recruited 46 consecutive chronic patients with mild TBI and 42 normal control subjects. Fractional anisotropy (FA) and fiber number (FN) of the prefronto-thalamic tracts were determined for both hemispheres. Results: Significant differences were detected in the FA value of the DLPFC and FN value of the prefronto-thalamic tracts in the patient and control groups (p < 0.05). However, no significant differences were detected in the ventrolateral PFC (VLPFC) and orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) between the patient and control groups (p > 0.05). In addition, the FN value of the DLPFC showed moderate positive correlation with short-term memory (r = 0.510, p < 0.05). However, no significant correlations were detected between the short-term memory and the FA value of the DLPFC, and the FA and FN values of the VLPFC and OFC in the patient group (p > 0.05). Conclusions: We found that the short-term memory impairment was closely associated with the DLPFC injury in patients with mild TBI. Our results suggest that the estimation of the DLPFC using DTT would be useful for patients with severity of short-term memory impairment following mild TBI.

“…While EF has been extensively studied in the clinical populations and its psychopathological implications (e.g., [ 17 , 18 , 19 ]), it receives relatively little attention in the workplace setting. This study establishes empirical evidence of the relationships between executive functions, work engagement, and employee well-being.…”

Executive functioning and its related components have been found to promote well-being. However, there is a limited understanding of the underlying mechanism. Drawing from the job demands–resources and PERMA models, the present study examined the hypothetical mediating role of work engagement in the relationship between executive functioning deficit and well-being among 314 working adults in Malaysia. Participants answered a survey consisting of the Executive Skills Questionnaire-Revised (ESQ-R; a new measure of executive functioning deficits for working adults), Utrecht Work Engagement Scale, Employee Well-Being Scale, and Self-Rated Creativity Scale. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the ESQ-R score was negatively associated with all other target variables, while the latter was positively related to each other. Moreover, supporting the hypotheses, the results of mediation analysis using PROCESS macro found that work engagement mediated the negative relationship between executive functioning deficits and well-being after statistically controlling for the creativity score. The findings not only replicate the beneficial role of executive functioning in employees’ well-being but also shed light on the underlying process of the relationship. Implications and directions for future studies are discussed.
