What the organizer does

Why three raters

Executive function shows most where demands are highest. Parents, teachers and students each see different demands, and agreement between raters is modest. A concern all three report is strong; one from school only often reflects school’s heavier planning load.

Ratings and tests

Rating scales of executive function and performance tests of it agree only weakly; they measure different things. Ratings describe everyday behavior, which is what supports are built around.

What it is not

It holds no norms and makes no diagnosis. Cut points come from the manual you copy them from; no percentiles are worked out here.
