In the present chapter, the authors analyze of the relations between inhibitory processes, selective attention, and the executive processes responsible for self-regulation. They describe the multidimensional model of inhibition with special emphasis on the unique functional and operative features of perceptual inhibition, in contrast with cognitive and response inhibitions. Likewise, they analyze the role of selective attention and self-regulation processes. Moreover, they describe the procedures and paradigms currently used for each inhibitory process assessment and outline the importance of including them as part of the evaluation and intervention processes in the different scenarios of psychological practice.
