* egocentrism
* poor regulated attention
* disorganization
* weak goal formulation
* ineffective planning
*decreased flexibiltiy
* slow processing
* diminished divergent thinking

*dulled emotional responses
damage to executive function system - correct answer ✔✔*dysexecutive syndrome
--broad range of disturbed behavior such as impulsivity, distractibility, apathy, problems learning new
tasks and behaving inappropriately in social situation
*patients with impaired EF
--may present with preserved cog functions, but fail to use them (make plan, do not initiate)
,-- have difficulty when there is not sufficient sturcute to help them with task completion and task
monitoring
clinical model of executive functions - correct answer ✔✔1. initiation and drive: starting behavior
2. response inhibition: stopping behavior
3. task persistence: maintaining behavior
4. organization: sequencing and timing behavior
5. generative thinking: creativity, fluency, problem solving skills (what would yo do if your computer
broke)
6. awareness: self evaluation and insight
What does dysexecutive syndrome look like? - correct answer ✔✔EF domain:
-initiation and drive

that occurs internally during cognitive-communicative activities
*compares actual performance with an expected performance creating internal feedback that is used to
make decision about a strategy or action
*self regulation involves changing behavior in response to self monitoring
four domains of frontal lobe functioning: neural correlates - correct answer ✔✔*energization/regulation
(superior-medial region)
*executive/cognitive (dorsolateral mdial)
