Summary

The aims of this traumatic brain injury (TBI) study are:

1. to evaluate the short and long-term efficacy of two structured outpatient intervention programs, Resilience and Adjustment Intervention (RAI) vs. RAI with follow up booster sessions (RAI+) on resilience
2. to evaluate the short and long-term impact of intervention on emotional well-being and postinjury adjustment with the RAI vs. the RAI+
3. to evaluate the short and long-term impact of the RAI and the RAI+ on abilities including problem solving, communication, and stress management
4. to determine if demographic, lifestyle, injury, or treatment response information can predict maintenance of gains
