Resumen:
Inhibitory control is one of the main executive functions responsible of stopping or attenuating interference generated by prepotent tendencies linked with emotion, thought or behavior which could interfere with goal achievement. Current approaches state the need of fragmenting the inhibitory function into a set of processes: perceptual, cognitive and response inhibition, although there is some debate regarding the structure of this process. Likewise, inhibitory functioning has been studied mostly in neutral (also called cool) contexts, and exhaustive studies of this process are scarce.Therefore, this work deals with the study of inhibitory control in both neutral and emotional contexts. In this study, each inhibitory process was assessed by a specific task on a sample of 435 children. The obtained results support the three-factor structure of the inhibitory processes, in line with multidimensional inhibition models.
