This project consists of 3 phases. The objective for the first two phases was to develop a systematic and hierarchical Categorization Program to remediate higher order cognitive deficits in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Currently in Phase 3, this project is investigating the effectiveness of the Categorization Program in patients with moderate-severe TBI. The following five centers are participating in the clinical trials:
· Bancroft NeuroHealth, NJ
· ReMed, PA
· Casa Colina Centers for Rehabilitation, CA
· Centre for Neuro Skills, CA
· Center for Comprehensive Services, IL
