| Sumario: | "This volume synthesizes the latest research in self-regulation--what it is, how it functions, how genetic and environmental factors influence its development, how it affects social and academic competence in childhood and adulthood, what pathologies can emerge if it is underdeveloped, and how it might be fostered in children. The chapters integrate research from cognitive and social neuroscience, developmental psychology, and neurobiology, and emphasize the brain basis of basic cognitive functions that enable self-regulation. It is my hope that this book will be useful for researchers in developmental psychology, developmental neuroscience, and in particular, those interested in attention, self-regulation, and their deficits. Moreover, I hope that the volume will be useful and enlightening for educators and teachers coming from research circles who are interested in the growing bridge between the brain sciences and education"--Introduction.
