“…Once verbal instruction is possible (usually around 2-2.5 years of age), children can be asked to inhibit actions, maintain and manipulate information in WM, and switch between different tasks (e.g., Garon, Smith, & Bryson, 2014;Mulder, Hoofs, Verhagen, van der Veen, & Leseman, 2014;Zelazo, Frye, & Rapus, 1996).
