Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the trajectory of metacognitive functioning throughout phases of recovery from neurological insult, and to determine its relationship to rehabilitation compliance and functional outcome. It is hypothesized that metacognitive accuracy improves over time, and is a significant predictor of engagement in rehabilitation activities.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study will examine the trajectory of metacognitive functioning through different phases of recovery from neurological insult, and document its relationship to rehabilitation compliance. Individuals currently completing rehabilitation programs and individuals from the community who meet study criteria are invited to participate. After consenting and enrolling in the study, participants complete 2 study sessions: a baseline session, and a follow-up session either at time of completion of rehabilitation program or 3 months later if not in a rehabilitation program. During the study sessions, participants will complete paper-and-pencil and computerized tests of cognition (including metacognitive tasks).
