Previous research has indicated that young children's executive functions (EFs) can be bolstered through role-play [e.g. the 'Batman™ effect'; White et al.].

Bird, Jo; Colliver, Yeshe; Edwards, Susan – Early Child Development and Care, 2014
Participatory research methods argue that young children should be enabled to contribute their perspectives on research seeking to understand their worldviews.
