Contributions of COMT Val¹⁵⁸ Met to cognitive stability and flexibility in infancy.

Developmental science - 1 May 2014

Markant Julie, Cicchetti Dante, Hetzel Susan, Thomas Kathleen M

Abstract excerpt

Adaptive behavior requires focusing on relevant tasks while remaining sensitive to novel information. In adult studies of cognitive control, cognitive stability involves maintaining robust cognitive representations while cognitive flexibility involves updating of representations in response to novel information. Previous adult research has shown that the Met allele of the COMT Val(158) Met gene is associated with...
