摘要:
This study evaluated a computer-based program (TEACHware™) for remediating cognitive-communication skills in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TIM). TEACHware™ consists of a screening module (pretest/ /posttest measure) and six interlinked remediation modules. A randomized controlled experimental design was employed using two groups of six subjects with TBI. The remediation group made significantly more gains than the control group on both the screening module and standardized assessment measures. Results suggest that TEACHware™ is an effective enhancement to traditional rehabilitation and special education programs. Further Investigations will seek to establish its usefulness in assisting individuals with TBI to achieve greater success in academic, vocational, and interpersonal activities.
