Executive Function Skills Training Review

I watched Dr. Russell Barkley's talk about 30 essential things to know and saw his recommendation about reading a review of Executive functioning skills training but it was from 2012. I wondered if anyone would have a recommendation of an updated review of programs and also wondered if there are updates to the effectiveness of these programs for ADHD kids (or adults as I fit that one.)

Research Pax Good Behavior Game. Only strategy that actually trains the brain by allowing children to practice self control and self regulation under excitement in a safe place. 40 years of gold standard research. Problem is that schools mistakenly think it’s a behavioral modification program and those ar a dime a dozen. But the other pieces of Pax are available for parents under Pax Tools on You Tube. I will post links tomorrow or find my previous posts.
