Cognitive control at the beginning and the end of young adulthood

Background and Aims: Cognitive control is the ability to coordinate and integrate several distinct cognitive processes in accordance with internal goals and current demands. Its emergence is driven by the interaction between biological and environmental factors. Despite the fact that tremendous changes take place during the transition from adolescence to adulthood, young adulthood is often studied in a wider age range, between 18 and 40 years. The aim of the resent study was to investigate neural correlates of cognitive control processes at the beginning and the end of young adulthood, using a modified four-color Stroop task and event-related brain potentials (ERPs). Methods: A total of 77 volunteers participated in the study, divided into two age groups: late adolescents (19- to 21-year-olds) and young adults (28- to 44-year-olds). The study was conducted individually, in two sessions. Thefirst session included psychological testing battery (to control for possible differences between the groups) and experimental task training. During the second session, a modified four-color Stroop task was applied in order to investigate cognitive control, while the neural electrophysiological activity (EEG) was recorded. Results: On the behavioral level, the late adolescents made significantly more errors in the incongruent condition compared to the young adults. On the neurophysiological level, the late adolescents showed enhanced P200 and reduced N200 components compared to the young adults in both congruent and incongruent conditions, as well as a reduced N450 component in the incongruent condition. Conclusion: Our results suggest that adjustments in cognitive control are still ongoing in the early twenties, as the refinement of the prefrontal control network follows a protracted developmental curve throughout young adulthood, and underscores the importance of including narrow age-range cohorts when investigating the development of cognitive control in young adulthood.
