Objective: To characterize treatment responders and nonresponders as measured by the Neurobehavioral Symptom Inventory (NSI) in order to understand whether certain traits in our patient population would characterize favorable response.
Setting: Brain Injury Rehabilitation Service at Brooke Army Medical Center, Fort Sam Houston, San Antonio, Texas.
Patients: In total, 655 active duty military patients with a diagnosis of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) who received treatment between 2007 and 2020 and completed self-report measures as part of routine care.
Purpose: To determine if it is possible to successfully treat pseudobulbar affect (PBA) using a behavioral approach.
Design And Methods: Two experiments were conducted, each a double reversal design with the same single subject in both. The first experiment tested the hypothesis that the rate of PBA could be controlled by manipulation of its consequences.
