executive functions

There is very little information available regarding behavioral issues that specifically deals with children who have hemiplegia or stroke. The information provided on this page is more general and deals with behavior issues in children who have a traumatic brain injury. These issues may or may not be similar to behavioral issues in children with hemiplegia or stroke.  This hope that the research community will notice this lack of information and begin to design and implement studies in this area.

Changes in Cognitive (Thinking) Skills

  • "Executive Functions" - refers to difficulties relate to planning, organizing and strategizing behaviors
