[QUOTE="Allan-Matlem, post: 373474, member: 10"] Hi, Ef disfunction is found across many childhood disorders. Russel Barkley sees EF as fundemental to ADHD. In my blog I share check lists of EF. The collaborative problem solving approach promotes these skills through problem solving . Executive functions and CPS - collaborative problem solving - there are links to the executive and other cognitive functions checklists [url]http://allankatz-parentingislearning.blogspot.com/2010/08/executive-functions-ef-and-cps.html[/url] As far as medication goes , Barkley says it helps , as his definition of EF revolves around inhibition and self control. Others think otherwise . The drug use for ADHD have minimal impact on executive test performance according to Seidman's 2006 review. Perhaps these drugs helping indirectly via overall improvement in concentration, although I dont know if any study investigated this issue I revisited the Barkley lecture . He talks about lack of inhibition afffecting 4 EFs including making private emotion which is the source of intrinsic motivation . ADHD kids need extrinsic motivation to compensate . He does admit that rewards etc don't generalize. SDT theory and research show that extrinsic motivation undermines intrinsic motivation and there is new MRI research showing that when the brain is operating with the knowledge of a possible reward it shuts off those parts of the brain used for voluntary and self initiating activity - expressions of intrinsic motivation. While I think Barkley's theoretical justification of behavior modification sounds brilliant , it is flawed.
