Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to evaluate how five non-cognitive neurobehavioral (NCNB) measures can predict participation and social adaptation outcomes one year after a brain injury.
- - Using a longitudinal design and multiple regression analysis, researchers found that motivation and emotional regulation significantly predicted outcomes, explaining 53% of the variation in the Mayo-Portland Adaptability Inventory scores.
- - The findings suggest that these NCNB measures could help clinicians identify patients who may need continued intervention, potentially improving rehabilitation planning.
