Unimanual tapping during concurrent articulation: examining the role of cortical structures in the execution of programmed movement sequences.

abstract：:Individuals with autism demonstrate impairments on measures of executive function (EF) relative to typically developing comparison participants. EF is comprised of several processes including inhibition, working memory and set shifting that develop throughout the lifespan. Impairments in EF may appear early in develop...
