Traumatic Brain Injury in Indiana's Correctional System: Prevalence and Recidivism.

This article identified rates of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and recidivism among people incarcerated or exiting incarceration in Indiana using data from different sectors of the incarcerated population. This article was a collaboration between the rehabilitation hospital of Indiana and both the Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) and the problem-solving courts of Marion County, resulting in two distinct screening samples. Participants in the IDOC sample ( = 2,791) were screened over a period of 2 years and 4 months.
