OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Children’s ability to control their own thoughts and actions, or ‘executive function’ (EF), has been a topic of intense interest in the field of developmental science for the past two decades. While enormous progress has been made in understanding the social correlates and consequences of individual differences in executive function in the preschool years, relatively few studies have sought to examine normative individual differences in executive function in the first two years of life. In this seminar, Dr Devine will present data from a new longitudinal study of children and parents to elucidate the early predictors and social correlates of executive function in the first two years of life.
