You know something's off. You're not lazy. You're not disorganized. But certain things — starting tasks, tracking time, shifting gears — cost so much more than they seem like they should. The problem isn't effort. It's that the demand doesn't match what your system can sustainably provide.
The Executive Function Load Map Handout gives you a way to see that clearly. It maps strain across 8 EF domains — planning, working memory, task initiation, sustained attention, flexibility, emotional regulation, self-monitoring, and time management — so you can stop guessing which areas need support and start targeting the right ones. Rate each domain, plot your scores on a radar chart, and use the pattern guide to identify where scaffolding is needed most.
The radar shape matters more than the total score. Three domains at 9 and five at 2 needs very different support than everything sitting at 5. This tool shows you the shape.
Designed for: Neurodivergent adults mapping their EF load, and clinicians looking for a clear, accessible starting point before deeper assessment.
What's included: 1 printable PDF (3 pages), letter-size.
This tool is not a diagnostic instrument. For clinical and educational use only.
