Factors determining a poor prognosis for adaptation and re-insertion into the workplace are age, a low educational level, a lack of job qualifications and greater cognitive impairments. The significant differences found between the NRS-R of employed and unemployed patients suggest that this variable may be used to predict a subject's ability to return to work.
The results show that, in this group, patients with OPD after TBI present more psychosocial adjustment and emotional problems than patients with TBI without OPD diagnosis. The difference found is independent of cognitive impairments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
