Recent imaging studies have suggested that developmental changes may parallel aspects
of adult learning in cortical activation becoming less diffuse and more focal over time …

One of the most salient ways in which our behavior changes during childhood and
adolescence is that we get better at working towards long-term goals, ignoring irrelevant …

Brain imaging studies have demonstrated widespread changes in brain networks which
support cognitive and social‐affective development. These conclusions, however, are …

Changes in many domains of cognition occur with development. In this paper, we discuss
neuroimaging approaches to understanding these changes at a neural level. We highlight …

There is no single methodology that can fully explain the nature of human development and
learning. Yet, headway is being made on how cognitive milestones are achieved during …

It has been just under a decade since contemporary neuroimaging tools, such as functional
magnetic resonance imaging, were first applied to developmental questions. These tools …

Characterization of brain–behavior relationships through functional magnetic imaging (fMRI)
within typically or atypically developing populations poses methodological and …

The “5-to-7-year shift” refers to the remarkable improvements observed in children's
cognitive abilities during this age range, particularly in their ability to exert control over their …

Cognitive and brain maturational changes continue throughout late childhood and
adolescence. During this time, increasing cognitive control over behavior enhances the …

The developmental cognitive neuroscience literature has grown exponentially over the last
decade. This paper reviews the functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) literature on …
