简要总结
Brain injuries affect the lives of numerous Veterans. This study examines how the brain is affected by injury and how rehabilitation training for attention dysfunction may change brain functioning.
详细描述
Traumatic brain injuries (TBI) are a leading cause of long-term disability among combat Veterans. The most common and persistent sequelae after TBI are cognitive-behavioral deficits in 'executive control' and 'attention' functions. Such abnormalities may directly contribute to poor long-term outcomes as well as impede rehabilitation of dysfunction in other cognitive and motor domains. Effective treatments would potentially make a major impact in improving functional outcomes, but consistently effective treatments are not available. The overall goal of this research is to improve the investigators' understanding of plasticity in brain function after TBI and to develop improved cognitive neurorehabilitation treatments. The intervention involves individual and group-based training in cognitive skills.

结局指标
主要结局
Self-report
时间窗: 5 Weeks (After completion of active trainings in Arm 1 and Arm 3)
Responses to goal processing questionnaire relating to areas of personal goal-based functioning. This scale measured participants self-perceived changes to their cognitive and emotional functioning. Participants indicated the degree to which they perceived changes to 11 questions after receiving trainings in Arm 1 and Arm 3 on a 10-point scale (1=domain became worse, 5 = no change, 10 = domain improved). Participants did not complete this measure after Arm 2.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline to Post-training for Task Errors on a Functional Performance Measure(5 weeks (After completion of Arm 1 and Arm 2))
- Change to Attention and Executive Functioning Composite Scores(5 weeks (After completion of Arm 1 and Arm 2))
