abstract = {The objective of this study is to measure the effectiveness of a program on improving
inhibitory and emotional control among children. In addition, it is assessed whether the improvement
of these skills has an effect on the reduction of aggressive behavior in pre-school children. The
participants were 100 children, 50 belonging to the control group and 50 to the experimental group,
aged between 5 and 6 years. Pre-intervention and post-intervention measures of inhibitory and
emotional control (BRIEF-P) and aggression (BASC) were taken. A Generalized Linear Mixed Model
analysis (GLMM) was performed and found that children in the experimental group scored higher
on inhibitory and emotional control compared to their peers in the control group. In addition,
these improvements have an effect on the decrease in aggressiveness. In conclusion, preventive
research should have among its priorities the design of such program given their implications for
psychosocial development.},
