...Inhibition, the ability to suppress distracting information and unwanted responses [16,40,58,84], and shifting, the ability to flexibly switch attention between different tasks [98], have also been implicated in mathematics achievement....
[...]
...A recent meta-analysis demonstrated that shifting ability does predict performance in mathematics [98], however it remains unclear whether shifting is an independent predictor of mathematics over and above general intelligence....

...Instead, it has been proposed that the relatively pure EF components can be extracted by confirmatory factor analysis (Lehto et al., 2003; Miyake et al., 2000) and the nonexecutive processes operated by EF tasks should be accounted for by using control tasks, which are quite similar to their EF correspondents except that they do not require the operation of the given EF component (Van der Sluis et al....

...The term may encompass at least three separate but related components: inhibition, working memory and shifting (Lehto, Juujärvi, Kooistra, & Pulkkinen, 2003; Miyake et al., 2000)....

...For instance, it is important to note that the substantial variety in shifting tasks remains a methodological challenge mostly due to task impurity (Miyake et al., 2000)....
