  • Title: Observing executive activity in a simple assembly task.
    Author: Lawson MJ.
    Journal: Am J Ment Defic; 1985 May; 89(6):642-9. PubMed ID: 4003460.
    Abstract:
    Performance of a group of adult trainees in a workshop for mentally retarded persons and that of an equivalent-MA group of third-grade children was observed in a toy construction task. Performances were video taped and subsequently coded for executive activity and other classes of behavior. A range of executive activities was identified, and these proved to be a powerful influence in discriminating between the groups. Other analyses of event sequences examined where executive activity occurred and which types of events typically followed such activity.
