This study displays the results of a neuropsychologi-cal assessment of the executive functioning, admin-istered in adults with moderate intellectual disability aged between 20 and 39 years old in the city of Bogo-ta. A basic protocol of neuropsychological tests was used in order to measure aspects such as executive attention (Stroop Test), impulsivity (FAS), planning / organization (King's Figure), follow-up instructions (Token Test), inhibition (WCST), processing speed and cognitive flexibility (TMT A and B). The most significant findings reveal an executive functioning below what was expected, in general, for the entire sample, but with scores for tests such as Token Test of Pc=<1-2 in both men and women; and better planning in men with 43% for the King's Figure copy, without this showing a range of normal-ity. This allows us to conclude that concerning to what is exposed in the literature on the functioning of the frontal lobe and the left dorsolateral cortex for various components of the executive function-ing, the participants' performance resembles to the symptomatology proposed by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-V) for moderate intellectual disability in regards to ba-sic and instrumental activities of daily life and its adaptive behavior.Keywords: Executive functioning, assessment, neuropsychology, intellectual disability, social behavior.
