Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale (BDEFS)

The Barkley Deficits in Executive Functioning Scale (BDEFS) is a tool used to assess how well a person manages skills like organization, problem-solving, focus, and self-control. It helps identify difficulties in planning, remembering tasks, and regulating behavior. These challenges are often linked to conditions like ADHD. The scale provides insights into specific areas where someone might struggle with daily tasks, enabling targeted support or interventions to improve functioning and reduce stress.
