Reflection Sciences provides training and tools for assessing executive function skills in early childhood and across the lifespan. Executive function (EF) refers to neurocognitive skills, such as attention, working memory, self-control, and cognitive flexibility, that are involved in goal-directed problem solving. These are essential life skillsthat provide a foundation for learning and adaptation in a wide range of contexts. EF skills make it possible for children to learn effectively and efficiently in a classroom context, and they protect children against risks associated with adversity. EF measured in childhood has been proven to predict school readiness, academic achievement, and educational attainment, as well as career success, health, wealth, and well-being in adulthood.
