Executive function (EF) is a set of mental skills that help an individual to control their thinking and behavior (Dawson & Guare, 2010). These skills allow an individual to select and achieve goals or to develop problem solutions. Executive function skills include planning, organization, time management, working memory, and metacognition. The EF skills also help individuals guide their behavior toward these goals including response inhibition, emotional control, sustained attention, task initiation, flexibility, and goal-directed persistence.
