“…Indeed, adolescents who sustain moderate to severe TBI may present elevated rates of clinically significant behavioral and social dysfunction, including aggressive (Dooley, Anderson, Hemphill, & Ohan, 2008) and socially inappropriate behaviors (Cole et al, 2008;Hicks et al, 2017), as well as sociocognitive impairments such as affect recognition deficits (e.g., impaired facial affect recognition) and reduced empathy (Tousignant et al, 2018). These problems can appear both in the acute and chronic stages post-injury, and may aggravate with time resulting in adverse adult outcomes, such as reduced social participation, social isolation and maladaptive behaviors (Beauchamp, Dooley, & Anderson, 2010;Catroppa et al, 2017).…”
