“…In addition to assessing cognitive functions (language, orientation, concentration, visuospatial function, memory), the BNIS provides an assessment of affect (affective expression, spontaneous emotion, emotion perception and mood control). The BNIS is easy and fast to administer (13.8 minutes for neurological and psychiatric populations and 11.8 minutes for healthy participants, Prigatano et al, 2013). Furthermore, several studies (Boosman, Visser-Meily, Post, Duits, and van Heugten, 2013; Prigatano et al, 2014; Redfors et al, 2014) have shown that the BNIS is more sensitive than the MMSE in various neurological diseases (brain injury, stroke) that share characteristics with MS (e.g., slowing of processing speed).…”

Facial Emotion Recognition and Faux Pas Interpretation in Multiple Sclerosis

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system leading to physical and cognitive disability. The impact of the disease on social cognition has only come to light quite recently. The aim of this study was to evaluate the social cognition abilities of MS patients and their links with characteristics of the disease, such as physical disability, cognitive impairment and disease duration. The performances of a group of 64 MS patients were compared with that of 30 matched healthy individuals in facial emotion recognition and Faux Pas tasks as well as on a battery of standardized neuropsychological tests. The MS patients performed worse than the control group in the recognition of the expressions of fear and anger and in the interpretation of faux pas. The impairment in social cognition increased with overall disease course. Executive impairment did not correlate with the performance in the social cognition tests. Our results show that emotional impairment is observed at early stages of the disease in the absence of cognitive dysfunction, even if social cognition abilities worsen with the progression of MS. These data highlight the need to attempt to identify these impairments in clinical practice.

“…They were also asked to rate levels of difficulty in concentration, word finding, irritability, anxiety, depression, fatigue, and problems with directionality. This procedure was also used when obtaining normative data on the French translation of the BNIS (for details, see Prigatano et al ., ).…”

“…In this study, the performance of French-speaking individuals who were diagnosed as having MCI is compared with that of normal, healthy control subjects by using a French translation of the BNIS (Prigatano et al, 2013). It was predicted that patients diagnosed with MCI not only would show worse performance on a subtest of memory function but also would be less accurate in predicting their memory performance.…”

Objective: To report the advancement of the use and applications of the QOLIBRI, a 37-item disease-specific tool of health-related quality-of-life (HRQoL) after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods: We have performed a literature review of HRQoL in TBI involving QOLIBRI, via PubMed, since its three initial publications in 2010. We have selected 24 more studies and taken into account our respective clinical experiences on QOLBRI use up to now. Results: The QOLIBRI was initially validated in six languages: Dutch, Finnish, English, French, German, and Italian. After two assessment waves, the validation study on 795 TBI-persons showed a good reliability (Cronbach 0.86 and test-retest reliability 0.81). The QOLIBRI was related-but with an added-value-to SF-36, the Glasgow Outcome Scale extended (GOSE) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Further studies have led to a comparison with the generic instrument SF-36, and the International Classification of Functioning (ICF). A 6-item Overall QOLIBRI scale (QOLIBRI-OS), and relative's proxy version (Pro-QOLIBRI) were designed and validated. Moreover, QOLIBRI was validated in Portuguese, Chinese, and Japanese. In addition, QOLIBRI was applied in studies on elderly people, mild TBI, coping and insurances. Conclusion: The QOLIBRI enlightens patient's subjective perception of his/her HRQoL which supplements measures of functional outcome. It allows the identification of personal needs, the prioritization of therapeutic goals and the evaluation of individual progress. It may also be useful in clinical trials and in longitudinal studies of TBI recovery.
