One of the most debilitating deficits faced by those who have suffered a TBI is a lack of self-awareness, such as a lack of understanding of deficits, abilities, and actions. Self-awareness is crucial because it is the first building block on the way to goal-setting, accepting constructive feedback, and progress in rehabilitation. This article discusses one of the possible interventions to help improve self-awareness as well as social skills. The authors of this article found that integrative videogame-based group therapy can improve self-awareness, social skills, and behaviors among individuals with chronic TBI, and the approach is considered effective and motivating.
