Linking the Supplementary Motor Network and Executive Function in Developing Brain
This finding underscores the SMA's pivotal role in executive dysfunction during developmental stages. Interestingly, this significant connectivity was absent in younger participants, highlighting the age range of 11-12 as a critical turning point for brain functional alterations involved in EF development. Since the crucial role of SMA in refining EF development has been underappreciated, this work has the potential to provide insight into both the nature of the functional alteration of SMA and the differences in individuals' EF development trajectories.
