The authors wish to update the Introduction in their paper published in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH) [1].

In the middle of the third paragraph in the Introduction, they would like add a citation to the following sentence:

For example, the ability to mentally conceptualize a problem, store information temporarily in the visual-spatial sketchpad, develop a plan, evaluate and adapt complex goal-directed behavior has been identified as a product of working memory and executive function [2].

The changes do not affect the results. The manuscript will be updated and the original will remain online on the article webpage, with a reference to this addendum.
