This category includes the influence of environment and experience on the development of executive functions. A lack of cognitive stimulation or constant exposure to stress can hinder the development of executive functions. Growing up in an environment that does not provide cognitive stimulation, such as a lack of educational interventions, limited social interaction, or insufficient early learning, can lead to impaired executive function. Psychological trauma, neglect, or chronic stress also play a significant role in impaired self-regulation, impulse control, and concentration. Even with intact brain structures, a child deprived of appropriate educational and social experience may have disorders in planning, organizing activities, solving problems and adapting to new situations.
