Executive Function Protocol

Meaning

An Executive Function Protocol is a structured, evidence-based regimen specifically designed to systematically improve the set of cognitive skills necessary for controlling and managing all other cognitive abilities and behaviors. These core functions include working memory, cognitive flexibility, and inhibitory control, which are the fundamental components of goal-directed behavior and complex problem-solving. Such protocols integrate specific cognitive training exercises, targeted neurochemical support, and precise lifestyle modifications to enhance the functional activity of the prefrontal cortex. The protocol’s objective is to elevate an individual’s capacity for strategic planning and sustained, high-quality attention.
