Description
Executive Functions | 12-18 years old
Age Group: 12+
Executive functions do not mature automatically with age — they require targeted training, especially during adolescence, when demands increase rapidly and the brain is still developing.
“Executive Functions – Intervention Guide | Ages 12–18” provides professionals with a comprehensive, structured intervention system that works in practice. Each section begins with a brief theoretical introduction — definitions, developmental stages, and neuroscientific background — and immediately moves into activities that can be applied from the very next session.
The five thematic sections cover:
Inhibitory Control — Techniques such as Gas | Brake | Compass, response inhibition puzzles, and real-life adolescent scenarios (social conflicts, digital impulses, anxiety) help adolescents recognize impulses and make conscious choices.
Self-Regulation — The 90-Second Rule, the Intensity Ladder, body sensation mapping, and cognitive restructuring techniques provide adolescents with concrete tools to manage emotions and anxiety without escalating or withdrawing.
Working Memory — Reverse sentences, grouping under pressure, error detection, and the Feynman Technique train adolescents to retain and process information in demanding cognitive situations.
Cognitive Flexibility — Combining incompatible stimuli, moral dilemmas, the architecture of chaos, and abstract connections help adolescents shift perspective, tolerate uncertainty, and think creatively when things do not go as planned.
Planning & Organization — Backward planning, action prioritization, dynamic scheduling, and the mental contrasting technique equip adolescents with the tools to organize time, responsibilities, and goals with autonomy.
The book also includes the EFEF (12–18 years): an evaluation tool with age-based scoring scales, assessment charts, and a completed example for clinical application.
