Self-adaption web-based software for the rehabilitation of EF and visuo-spatial abilities

\- Self-adaption web-based software integrated with neuropsychomotor activities in small groups to strengthen EF. The training will take place bi-weekly, for 3 months, for approximately 60 minutes per meeting. For the intervention will be used the Bee-bot, a robot to be programmed to achieve objectives set in space, allows to stimulate navigation, visuospatial working memory and planning skills (the activities will be taken from those already used in our previous studies in children with typical development and BES (Di Lieto et al., 2020)).

OTHER

Tele-rehabilitation of EF and specific cognitive processes underlying academic skills

\- Tele-rehabilitation intervention on FE (RuntheRAN and MemoRAN). The training will be conducted at home, with periodic meetings with the clinician, for 3 months, for approximately 4/5 days a week for approximately 30/40 minutes per day. An adult (e.g. a family member) will support the child in the treatment and ensure that the exercises are carried out adequately at home. One of the following tele-rehabilitation software will be used: RuntheRAN (RidiNet, Coopertiva Sociale Anastasis), a software that aims to strengthen the prerequisites of reading by requiring the timed and progressively faster naming of colour matrices or black and white figures. MemoRAN (RidiNet, Cooperativa Sociale Anastasis), which involves rapid naming exercises of stimuli (figures and colors) presented in matrices, within tasks that require inhibition, cognitive flexibility and updating in working memory.

OTHER

Game-based tools for the rehabilitation of EF and motor planning

\- MondoELLI intervention (Cooperativa Sociale Anastasis) integrated with neuropsychomotor activities. The game-based app involves activities in small groups to strengthen various components of EF (interference control, inhibition, working memory, flexibility). The activities are organized with increasing difficulty, according to the self-adaptive algorithm, and within a narrative context.
