Assessing the three attentional networks in children from three to six years: A child-friendly version of the Attentional Network Test for Interaction Casagrande, Maria Marotta, Andrea Attention Alerting Orienting Executive Control ANTI Children Open access funding provided by Universita degli Studi di Roma La Sapienza within the CRUI-CARE Agreement. We want to thank all children, parents, teachers, and headmasters who made this study possible. In particular, we thank the following schools: the Istituto Comprensivo M.T. Cicerone in Arpino (Scuola Infanzia Arpino Cap. (Panaccio), Scuola Infanzia San Sosio, Scuola Infanzia Pagnanelli, Scuola Infanzia Fontana Liri, Scuola Infanzia Santopadre) and the Istituto Comprensivo Vito Fabiano in Latina. We also thank Valentina Valli and Alfredo Spagna for the test drawings. Attention involves three functionally and neuroanatomically distinct neural networks: alerting, orienting, and executive control. This study aimed to analyze the development of attentional networks in children aged between 3 and 6 years using a child-friendly version of the Attentional Network Test for Interaction (ANTI), the ANTI-Birds. The sample included 88 children divided into four age groups: 3-year-old, 4-year-old, 5-year-old, 6-year-old children. The results of this study would seem to indicate that between 4 and 6 years, there are no significant changes in attentional networks. Instead, between 3 and 4 years of age, children significantly improve all their attentional skills. 2021-10-25T09:07:44Z 2021-10-25T09:07:44Z 2021-09-30 info:eu-repo/semantics/article Casagrande, M., Marotta, A., Martella, D. et al.
