1. Improving academic performance: Identifying students' executive functions helps to better understand their cognitive processes, allowing the implementation of specific educational strategies to address their difficulties and promote better academic performance.


2. Identification of specific learning needs: The evaluation of executive functions provides detailed information on students' cognitive abilities, which facilitates the identification of specific needs for their learning and academic development.


3. More effective interventions: By collecting information from multiple sources (student, family and teacher), a more complete view of the student's difficulties is obtained, allowing for the design of more effective interventions tailored to their individual needs.


4. Reducing academic stress: By better understanding students' executive abilities, strategies can be implemented to help them manage academic stress and improve their ability to plan, organize, and carry out schoolwork effectively.
