GAGO GALVAGNO, Lucas G.  e  ELGIER, Angel M.. Early development of executive functions: ¿how are they related with communicative competences and how are they evaluated?. Anu. investig. [online]. 2015, vol.22, n.2, pp.289-296. ISSN 1851-1686.

Executive functions are understand as a complex construct that includes processes such as working memory, intentional and inhibitory control, planning and cognitive flexibility. The development of these processes is modulated by different variables. One of them is communication skills with which children have early in life. During the first year, children begin to deploy a range of skills (eg, gaze following, pointing gesture and language), who enroll in the so-called joint attention; this is defined as the visual coordination of two individuals towards an object of mutual interest. In turn, executive functions, promote the social skills of children. Thus a reciprocal development of both cognitive abilities is given, enriching the one another. Related research to the development of both functions in early life is scarce. In this sense, it becomes interesting to investigate topics related to the early development of these capabilities and relationships. In this article we will describe the ways to evaluate these functions and relieve literature on related research.
