Abstract:

There are differences in the research conclusions of the relationship between socioeconomic status and children's executive function. In order to better explain the connection between the two and their influencing factors, the 57 research (349 effect values) included in the meta–analysis. It was found that: there is a significant but weak positive correlation between the socioeconomic status and the executive function of children (r = 0.16, 95%CI = [0.13, 0.19]). The correlation coefficients for infancy, composite socioeconomic status measurement, and comprehensive executive function dimensions were significantly higher than those for other variables. There were no differences in cultural background or research design.The result indicates that a good family's socioeconomic status helps the development of children's executive function. In the future, vertical research can be carried out, and the intrinsic mechanisms that affect children's executive function can be studied to reveal causal relationships.
