Summary/Abstract: The following theoretical study focuses on a current topic of enhancing self-regulation through the executive functions training. We are building upon the ideas of recent findings (e.g. Hofmann, Schmeichel, Baddeley, 2012) suggesting that the training of executive functions has significant potential to improve the level of self-regulation. Our goal is to look at this issue from a theoretical point of view and offer some suggestions for the training implementation. Moreover we provide insight into the training program of the executive functions, its tasks, and its evaluation. We consider this issue to be relevant and important, mostly because of many benefits connected with the higher level of self-regulation and executive functions.
