13 COGNITIVE FUNCTION Zembrin Significantly Improved Key Cognitive Domains COGNITIVE FLEXIBILITY Ability to shift attention between two or more tasks and the ability to adapt to rapidly changing directions and intelligently utilize the information. Necessary for decision-making, impulse control and strategy formation.
