| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The J-MEFS, a Japanese version of the McCloskey Executive Function Scale (MEFS), was developed for use in the assessment and intervention of executive function in elementary and middle school students with developmental disabilities. Reliability and validity were examined using data collected from teachers. In the case study, the difficulties and strengths of executive function were analyzed based on the results of ratings by the teachers, parents, and the child himself/herself, and recommendations were developed. Teachers commented that the results reflected the child's usual situation and that the recommendations were reasonable.
These results suggested the constructs of executive functioning J-MEFS measured should be clarified. Also the profile and interpretation methods should be improved more friendly to teachers and parents. Finally implementation of interventions based on J-MEFS and verification of their effectiveness is needed in the future.
