Abstract
Executive Functions (EF) are considered as a group of cognitive abilities that enable individuals to perform targeted, purposeful behaviors and to adapt to novel situations, with conscious control. They are used as an umbrella term that include a diverse group of hypothesized cognitive processes that have interrelated functions. Recent evidence shows that dyslexia is not only influenced by working memory deficits, but may be associated with global executive function difficulties. Significant progress has been made on ways to improve EF skills for school readiness involving direct EF training and classroom educational programs. Due to the absence of a well-structured Arabic program for EF training in children, it is important to implement a comprehensive, evidence based intervention program to help Egyptian children with Learning Disorder to overcome their EF impairment. Aim of the work To adapt the “Executive Functions Training-Elementary”, and the “Promoting Executive Function In The Classroom” programs and their application in order to test their effectiveness in the rehabilitation of Egyptian learning disordered children with EF deficits.
