Search for: [Abstract = "Executive functions as a complex and multidimensional construct play an important role in self\-regulation.Ability to manage one’s own thoughts and behaviour in a conscious, purposeful, and planned way is a veryimportant factor also in terms of school readiness. There are data indicating that the level of executive functionsis stronger predictor of school achievement than the level of intelligence \(Blair, 2003\). The development ofexecutive functions is conditioned both biologically and environmentally. It is therefore particularly importantto reflect on the educational requirements of the development of these processes, especially in the face of theongoing debate on lowering of school age in Poland. Our aim is to present the issues of development ofexecutive functions and their importance for the functioning in preschool and school environment, taking intoaccount both cognitive and socio\-emotional context."]
