Article: Yi, A., & Dams-O'Connor, K. (2013). Psychosocial functioning in older adults with Traumatic Brain Injury. Neurorehabilitation, 32(2), 267-273
This article was interesting to read because it looked at psychosocial outcome of older adults who have a TBI and it talked about the factors that allowed for more positive outcomes. It was found that the level of severity, cause of injury. age at injury. co-morbid conditions, cohort characteristics, and pre-morbid functioning all affect how quick the recovery and social re-integration is for older adults.
