执行功能是个体的高级认知过程,它调控和调节个体完成复杂的认知任务时的认知过程,它包括抑制控制、工作记忆以及认知灵活性三个成分。探讨正念对执行功能三个子成分的影响,对于个人的发展具有重要的意义。研究表明,正面训练主要是通过改变与注意力相关的认知过程相关,从而达到影响个体的执行功能的效果。在未来的时间里,可以将正念训练更多的运用于课堂或者社区,更好的发挥其对于个人心理健康等方面的作用。

ABSTRACT
Executive function is an individual’s high-level cognitive process, which regulates and modulates the individual’s cognitive process when completing complex cognitive tasks. It includes three components: inhibitory control, working memory and cognitive flexibility. It is of great significance for personal development to explore the influence of mindfulness on the three sub-components of executive function. Studies have shown that positive training affects the executive function of individuals mainly by changing the cognitive processes related to attention. In the future, more mindfulness training can be applied in the classroom or community to better play its role in personal mental health and other aspects.
