Research has shown that behavioral intention is a fairly good predictor of behavior… but what about when it’s not? For many people with executive function impairments — which includes not only many individuals who are neurodivergent, but also people with mood disorders, mental illness, physical illness, cognitive impairment, and even people under stress — following through on behavioral intention can be challenging, even when they strongly desire taking action.
In this episode we talk about the specific deficits caused by executive function disorder — whether temporary or longer-term, and share some ways that all campaigns and interventions can provide support to make intentions a reality.
