After a decade of tool innovation, what comes next? (2022)
Journal Article
Rawlings, B. S. (2022). After a decade of tool innovation, what comes next?. Child Development Perspectives, 16(2), 118-124. https://doi.org/10.1111/cdep.12451

A decade ago, now-seminal work showed that children are strikingly unskilled at simple tool innovation. Since then, a surge of research has replicated these findings across diverse cultures, which has stimulated evocative yet unanswered questions. Hu...

Examining relations between performance on non‐verbal executive function and verbal self‐regulation tasks in demographically‐diverse populations (2022)
Journal Article
Dutra, N. B., Chen, L., Anum, A., Burger, O., Davis, H. E., Dzokoto, V. A., …Legare, C. H. (2022). Examining relations between performance on non‐verbal executive function and verbal self‐regulation tasks in demographically‐diverse populations. Developmental Science, 25(5), https://doi.org/10.1111/desc.13228

Self-regulation is a widely studied construct, generally assumed to be cognitively supported by executive functions (EFs). There is a lack of clarity and consensus over the roles of specific components of EFs in self-regulation. The current study exa...
