Regarding the article “Executive functions and gender: systematic review,” published in this journal in 2024 (volume 3), it is reinforced that both working memory and cognitive flexibility are central processes for self-regulation and social adaptation. According to the authors, “Executive functions constitute mechanisms of intermodal and intertemporal integration that allow cognitions and emotions to be projected from the past into the future in order to find the best solution to novel and complex situations.” This process, then, allows children to integrate past experiences with new situations. In this context, and from a gender perspective, we can consider the value of play, since it is through play that gender begins to be constructed socially. However, human groups tend to confuse biological sex and gender, which could generate interpretive tension in the correlations linked to executive functions.
