Fwiw, I recently listened to this podcast with the researcher and creator of quantified-mind.com. Your question would be an interesting one to run by him.
Here is the podcast.

I don't know if the assessments on quantified-mind.com address all of that list of specific executive functions, but Yoni Donner may have insight or be able to point in the right direction. He is doing a lot of ongoing research in this area, collaborating with various universities using his assessments from quantified-mind.com.
