This document discusses executive functions and self-regulation, ADHD, and intervention strategies for ADHD. Executive functions are self-directed actions used to achieve goals by changing behavior in social contexts. Self-regulation involves self-awareness, inhibition, attention management, working memory, problem solving, and self-motivation. ADHD is a neurogenetic disorder of performance, not knowledge, and medication is highly recommended to treat its chronic symptoms. Common co-morbidities include oppositional defiant disorder, conduct disorder, depression, anxiety, and learning disorders. Effective interventions make information and time more concrete, break work into small assignments, use external motivation and consequences, simplify problem solving, and refuel the limited reserves of executive function
