Affective mapping of EEG during executive function tasks

Executive function is a set of mental processes commonly linked with the activation of the brain’s prefrontal cortex. While many studies have focused on EF in adulthood, the development of EF in children is yet to be understood. This paper proposes a new approach for understanding children’s re...
