Description
  • Executive functions include a set of higher order mental processes which are necessary for the concentration and focused attention on activities for which instinct or intuition are not sufficiently reliable. Executive functions participate in many cognitive tasks. Including e.g. focus (i.e. the ability to focus on relevant information and to suppress the tendency to engage in anything else), working memory (the ability to remember a set of relevant information until it has been processed) and motor planning. The relation of executive functions to various cognitive abilities is currently under extensive research; however, it is evident that their impairment causes a significant handicap. Moreover, based on other researches, it is evident that the development level of executive functions of each individual is strongly tied to their sociocultural background, especially to the parenting style of their family; on the other hand, differences in executive function significantly affect a person’s performance at school. The notable part for the aim of this paper, however, is the direct link between executive functions and eye movement, i.e. on the basis of eye tracking it is possible to make direct, unaltered conclusions on executive functions (Sereno, Babin, Hood, & Jeter, 2009). This is especially convenient when one of the aims of our study is to verify the methods of information retrieval for problem comprehension and solving. From this point of view, the dissertation thesis of Jansiewicz (2008) is of interest; its main goal is to show the relation between executive functions, close reading and use of metacognitive strategies. Jansiewicz combines psychometric methods with experimental methods, specifically with eye tracking.
