Do you find it hard to switch gears when plans change, or you spend more time overthinking than actually doing. If this sounds familiar, you might benefit from taking an executive function test.
What Is Executive Function?
Executive function refers to a group of mental skills that help you manage time, stay organized, pay attention, regulate emotions, and achieve long-term goals.
It is almost like the brain’s “management system”, skills that you rely on every day to plan, focus, remember instructions, and juggle multiple tasks successfully.
Neuroscience identifies three core areas of executive function:
1. Working memory – the ability to hold and manipulate information in your mind.
2. Cognitive flexibility (mental flexibility) – the capacity to shift your thinking when rules or demands change.
3. Inhibitory control (self-control) – the ability to resist impulses and make thoughtful decisions.
These executive function skills are deeply interconnected and work together to help you function effectively at home, at work, and in social settings.
Your present score reveals that you have a low level of executive function skills. It indicates that many times you seem to engage in planning, and initiating a work but seem to feel strong difficulty executing it till its finishing point. Besides this, it can be seen from your score that most frequently you seem to show a strong lack of confidence regarding how to execute a plan and most of the time might feel troubled about planning for big assignments. Further, it can be seen from your response that to only a few extent, you seem to engage in fixing strategies before executing something for the long run and engage in self-evaluation after a performance, rather it might be observed that in most cases you seem to rethink about the faults from your past activities and might feel strong difficulties to adapt to the new changes accrdingly with the situation. Along with this, it might be possible that hardly to a few extent you seem to engage in an activity with complete dedication and seem to feel strong difficulty to be relaxed and peaceful after executing a work successfully.
However, it should be noted that your responses may have a strong impact on your social, occupational, academic, and other areas of functioning. if you think the results do not accurately match your characteristics, then we would encourage you to consult a Psychologist for an accurate result.
