Low socioeconomic status (SES) is negatively associated with children's cognitive and academic performance, leading to long‐term educational economic disparities. In particular, SES a powerful predictor of executive function (EF), language ability, achievement. Despite extensive research documenting SES‐related differences in these domains, our understanding the mechanisms underlying associations factors that may mitigate relationships limited. This systematic review aimed identify mediators moderators association EF, Our synthesis revealed stress, support, stimulation, broader contextual at school‐ neighborhood level be important protective associations. stimulation mediated Educational expectations, classroom school environment, teacher–student also played key role addition, such as preschool attendance, home learning activities, parental support buffered between low lower outcomes.

Discovering the processes through which early adverse experiences affect children’s nervous-system development, health, and behavior is critically important for developing effective interventions. However, advances in our understanding of these have been constrained by conceptualizations that rely on categories adversity are overlapping, vague boundaries, lack consistent biological evidence. Here, we discuss central problems link between early-life brain development. We conclude suggesting alternative formulations hold promise advancing knowledge about neurobiological mechanisms affects human

Abstract Executive control functions are associated with frontal, parietal, cingulate, and insular brain regions that interact through distributed large‐scale networks. Here, we discuss how fMRI functional connectivity can shed light on the organization of networks they other parts brain.

The goal of the present study was probe effects different facets SES (parent education, income, neighborhood disadvantage), that likely represent varying aspects environment, on resting state functional connectivity (rsFC).
