No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of psychosocial factors in creating Persistent Post-concussive symptoms (PPCS). The researchers investigate three hypotheses: (a) Do pre-injury psycho-environmental deficits predict a higher level of PPCS? (b) Do socio-demographic and personal pre-injury deficits relate to (1) a more negative attribution for the child injury by their parents and (2) embracing of a more permissive and authoritarian parenting; and do these factors mediate the symptoms' preservation? (c) Does Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) benefit to reducing PPCS emotional and behavioral symptoms?
