Work Productivity Loss After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
2018, Archives of Physical Medicine and RehabilitationPrediction of occupational disability from psychological and neuropsychological evidence in forensic context
2016, International Journal of Law and PsychiatryCitation Excerpt :Social isolation and reduced social support are sometimes a consequence of TBI (Oddy & Humphrey, 1980), and a lack of community integration and support, in turn, plays a negative role in occupational outcome. Ruffolo, Friedland, Dawson, Colantonio, and Lindsay (1999) found that social interaction was positively associated with RTW in cases of mild TBI, and Devitt et al. (2006) reported that instrumental support was associated with lower occupational disability in cases of moderate-to-severe TBI. In a systematic review of 27 studies, Nightingale et al. (2007) similarly concluded that participation in the community post-injury is a significant predictor of RTW.
