Although TBI patients with good recovery showed similar response accuracy when compared with control subjects, they demonstrated significantly poorer performance in both electrophysiologic and behavioral responses. Diminished amplitudes and prolonged latencies in P300 responses indicate impaired organization and categorization of incoming sensory information; prolonged behavioral reaction times suggest slowing in the response execution process. Clinical and theoretical implications and goals for continued research are discussed.
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.
