What is the Executive Function test?
Executive function is your brain's management system — the cognitive processes that let you plan, focus, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks. This check-in reflects on four core domains drawn from executive function research: Impulse Control, Cognitive Flexibility, Working Memory, and Planning & Organisation.

Executive function difficulties are central to both ADHD and autism, but in different patterns. ADHD typically shows Working Memory + Impulse Control challenges. Autism typically shows Cognitive Flexibility + Planning challenges. Understanding your specific profile helps target the right strategies and accommodations.
Executive function is also state-dependent, not just trait-dependent — it dips under stress, poor sleep, hunger, and sensory overload, and recovers with rest. That is why a strong day and a scattered day can both be real for the same person. The aim of this check-in is not to label you, but to show which domain tends to give way first so you can build external scaffolding — lists, reminders, routines — exactly where it earns its keep.
