Inhibition and Working Memory (WM) are two core dimensions of executive functions (EF). These processes seem develop until late adolescence (Huizinga, Dolan & Van der Molen, 2006; Crone, Bunge, Van der Molen & Ridderinkhof, 2006) but it is still quite unclear how these abilities do organize in this great time of changes for the human brain. The aim of the study is to investigate how inhibition and WM organize during adolescence. CFA results, consistently with literature, show that Inhibition and WM seem to cluster in separable factors and seem to be as well strongly related.

Abstract
Inhibition and Working Memory (WM) are two core dimensions of executive functions (EF). These processes seem develop until late adolescence (Huizinga, Dolan & Van der Molen, 2006; Crone, Bunge, Van der Molen & Ridderinkhof, 2006) but it is still quite unclear how these abilities do organize in this great time of changes for the human brain. The aim of the study is to investigate how inhibition and WM organize during adolescence. CFA results, consistently with literature, show that Inhibition and WM seem to cluster in separable factors and seem to be as well strongly related.
