Barkley presents a model of EF that is rooted in meaningful activities of daily life. He describes how abilities such as emotion regulation, self-motivation, planning, and working memory enable people to pursue both personal and collective goals that are critical to survival. Key stages of EF development are identified and the far-reaching individual and social costs of EF deficits detailed. Barkley explains specific ways that his model may support much-needed advances in assessment and treatment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e See also Barkley's empirically based, ecologically valid assessment tools: \u003ci\u003eBarkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale (BDEFS for Adults)\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBarkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale--Children and Adolescents (BDEFS-CA).\u003c\/i\u003e","brand":"Guilford Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50021179752698,"sku":"9781462545933","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0840\/1253\/1962\/files\/imageloader_65e68fdb-7261-432a-9234-ec9e8129ed34.jpg?v=1786137303","url":"https:\/\/mindsourcebooks.com\/products\/executive-functions","provider":"Mind Source Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
