Summary

Acquired brain damage patients usually show severe cognitive deficit that alter their performance on every day life activities. Some of them suffer anosognosia and they are not aware of their own limitations. This situation increases disability by producing a large number of unsafe behaviours, caregivers burn-out and impede rehabilitation by affecting patients desire to follow treatment instructions. From disciplines like Neuropsychology, Cognitive Neuroscience or Occupational Therapy, it is considered a crucial issue to investigate the cognitive and neural mechanisms responsible of anosognosia, as well as to increase our knowledge about the most efficient treatments to deal with this phenomenon. The main general objective of this project is to generate and validate a detailed cognitive assessment protocol within the context of ADL to evaluate the different cognitive components of consciousness proposed on the Toglia and Kirk´s model: 1) Offline componente: metacognitive knowledge and 2) Online component: emergent awareness, self-regulation, anticipatory awareness, self-evaluation and updating processes).
