OBJECTIVE: Few studies have documented executive functions (EFs) following treatment of childhood noncentral nervous systems (non-CNS) solid tumor although treatments administered for several months or even a year during active brain development could affect EF development. The aims of this study were to explore everyday life executive complaints and associated factors. METHOD: = 253). RESULTS: ≥ 65). Executive complaints were significantly more frequent in boys, in older participants at assessment, in those with longer time since diagnosis, and in those with a history of developmental delay/learning disabilities. Clinically significant global executive composite scores were also associated with greater need for school support and ongoing rehabilitation at the time of assessment. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest significant, albeit mild parent-reported EF impairments following treatment of childhood non-CNS tumor. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2026 APA, all rights reserved).
