The present study examined the interactions of adolescents' temperamental effortful control and parental psychological control on adolescents' depressive symptoms in China. A total of 440 adolescents between the ages of 14 and 20 years (M = 15.7) participated in this study. Data on parental psychological control, adolescents' depressive symptoms and effortful control were collected from self-reports. Results showed that adolescents' effortful control moderated the link between paternal psychological control and adolescents' depressive symptoms. Specifically, for adolescents with low levels of effortful control, paternal psychological control was positively associated with increased depressive symptoms whereas for adolescents with a high level of effortful control, this association was not significant. In addition, maternal psychological control was associated with adolescents' depressive symptoms. These findings confirmed and extended previous findings on the associations between parental psychological control, children's temperament effortful control, and depressive symptoms in adolescence.

Perceived fatigue does not alter effort-based decision making but does undermine confidence in the ability to perform physical actions.

Fatigue may affect the decision to deploy effort (cost) for a given rewarded outcome (benefit). However, it remains unclear whether these fatigue-associated changes can be attributed to simply feeling fatigued. To investigate this question, twenty-two healthy males made a series of choices between two rewarded options: a fixed, no effort option, where no physical effort was required to obtain a set, low reward vs.

In response, based on three attention networks: alerting, orienting, and executive attention, we examined the development of attention functions at 42 months (not corrected for prematurity) as a follow-up study of VLBW ( = 23) and normal birth weight (NBW: = 48) infants.
Method: The alerting and orienting attention networks were examined through an overlap task with or without warning signal.

Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) evolve in stroke patients by examining the relationship between muscle strength and swallowing outcomes over six months.
- Researchers tracked various data points, including diet level and swallowing quality, through multiple assessments after participants suffered their first stroke.
- Findings revealed that while muscle strength improved in the first month, swallowing precision was critical for overall quality of life and function at six months, suggesting a need for early diagnosis in at-risk patients.
Self-Regulation in Preschool: Are Executive Function and Effortful Control Overlapping Constructs?

The concepts of executive function (EF) and effortful control (EC) are strikingly similar. EF originates from neurocognitive research and is described as an accumulation of cognitive processes that serve the goal-oriented self-regulation of an individual. EC originates from temperament research and is defined as the efficiency of executive attention, including the ability to inhibit a dominant response, activate a subdominant response, proceed in a planned manner, and recognize conflicts or errors.
