Hi guys! I'm intended to measure the relationship between poverty and brain executive functioning. I have read few article but still unable to comprehend how to do the test and analyze it..
Please guide...TQ
Our brain is our energy force & with our own line of development & practice our brain all the time supports us for taking a right type of decision at a right time ,however when we touch the group of adolescent it should not be viewed in totality as adolescent have their own norms ,own practice of their life living including the habits of their living style including the involvement of their company in which they are joining the hands for their group .
In view of this adolescent have their own life with responsibility & an have their inclination for their growth & development for such adolescent for the guideline ,growth & development will may nor have any problems
This is my personal opinion
A good textbook for non-neuropsychologists is: "A Compendium of Neuropsychological Tests Administration, Norms, and Commentary
Third Edition, by Esther Strauss, Elisabeth M. S. Sherman, and Otfried Spreen".
Their section on executive functioning is quite good.
There is also a relevant paper here on RG, see "Executive functions in children and adolescents: The types of assessment measures used and implications for their validity in clinical and educational contexts.
Also, although I have never used it myself, people tell me this tool is pretty good: Barkley deficits in executive functioning- children and adolescents (bdefs-ca)
I have also been told by some colleagues who do use it in their daily practice, that the Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning- Children and Adolescents (BDESF-CA) is very suitable to measure this type of activity.
It is my understanding that there is no one test that measures executive functioning and much of the diagnosis is made by inference through observations of the child's day-to-day functioning. I find the BRIEF (Behavior Inventory of of Executive Function - 2nd ed) to be useful and reliable.
Thank you guys..I will look through Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning- Children and Adolescents (BDESF-CA) scale.
Thank you again!
Atefeh:
I give the WISC-V & WAIS IV quite frequently. I don't usually find them all that helpful with regard to executive functioning, with the exception of the possibly the active working memory components.
