简要总结
The purpose of this study is to investigate the trajectory of metacognitive functioning throughout phases of recovery from neurological insult, and to determine its relationship to rehabilitation compliance and functional outcome. It is hypothesized that metacognitive accuracy improves over time, and is a significant predictor of engagement in rehabilitation activities.
详细描述
This study will examine the trajectory of metacognitive functioning through different phases of recovery from neurological insult, and document its relationship to rehabilitation compliance. Individuals currently completing rehabilitation programs and individuals from the community who meet study criteria are invited to participate. After consenting and enrolling in the study, participants complete 2 study sessions: a baseline session, and a follow-up session either at time of completion of rehabilitation program or 3 months later if not in a rehabilitation program. During the study sessions, participants will complete paper-and-pencil and computerized tests of cognition (including metacognitive tasks).

研究组 & 干预措施
Neurological injury
Paper and pencil/computerized assessments of cognitive functioning and metacognitive performance will be administered.
干预措施: metacognitive performance (Behavioral)
Healthy control
Paper and pencil/computerized assessments of cognitive functioning and metacognitive performance will be administered.
干预措施: metacognitive performance (Behavioral)
结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline metamemory performance to completion of rehabilitation
时间窗: At baseline and at end of length of stay in rehabilitative setting (on average 3 months)
The computerized metamemory test produces scores that are used to calculate a gamma coefficient, which is a quantitative measure of the individual's metacognitive performance/accuracy.
次要结局
- Change in rehabilitative engagement(At baseline and at end of length of stay in rehabilitative setting (on average 3 months))
