This study analyzes the psychometric characteristics of an Italian test of executive function (EF) tests assessing inhibition, set-shifting and working memory (core executive functions) for preschool children. BAFE is based on a concept accredited by the majority of EF research: a representation articulated in a profile of neuropsychological processes relatively independent. The main goal of this study was to assess the multiple EF components of BAFE Test in 3 to 6-year-old children and its sensivity, validity and reliability to age differences. In order to evaluate the convergent validity of the BAFE test, a correlation between different tests assessing similar neuropsychological constructs were performed. The framework of the relationships between the tests for children shows associations and dissociations compatible with the theoretical hypotheses on executive functions. BAFE test offers additional measures for clinical evaluations for preschoolers. It could introduce new clinical practice that add to clinical observations or questionnaires a rigorous measurement tools with good psychometric properties.
