We are building a check for planning, switching and self-control. It is not ready yet. Until it is, you can try the executive function tests we already have.

Report

We have not decided whether this check will have a report.

Who it will be for

Adults who have always found planning, switching between tasks or holding back a first impulse harder than people around them.
Anyone who wants a record of these skills before talking to a clinician.

A check, not a diagnosis

When it is ready, the check will show how you did on planning, switching and inhibition tasks. It will not diagnose ADHD or any other condition. A qualified professional can.

Questions

When will it be ready?

We do not have a date yet. When it is ready, it will appear on the Screenings page.

Is there an executive function test I can take now?

Yes. The executive function tests above are available today. They are separate from the planned check.

Is executive function the same as ADHD?

No. Executive function difficulties show up in ADHD and in many other situations, from poor sleep to stress. A check can describe performance, but it cannot say why.
