Following TBI in childhood it is common for deficits to be seen in
higher order skills, such as executive functions, both in the acute and
longer-term post-injury. Despite this, very little evaluative research has been
conducted with children post-TBI, particularly in the area of EF. METHODS: The
current study aimed to develop and implement a pilot intervention programme for
adolescent/young adults (n = 3), in the chronic phase of recovery, when EF skills
are no longer in a rapid state of development. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Study
results highlight the importance and need for accurate and relevant outcome
measures that capture subtle as well as more obvious changes following
intervention.
