Motor inhibition

Motor inhibition, the ability to suppress inappropriate motor responses, is an important aspect of executive functioning that develops throughout childhood and adolescence. Deficits in motor inhibition are associated with conditions like ADHD and can impact behavioural control and academic performance. Interventions targeting motor inhibition, such as cognitive training or physical activities requiring response inhibition, may improve overall executive functioning in children with mental health disorders.
