Neuropsychological Recovery in Head Injury
Abstract
Recovery of neuropsychological functions was studied in a group of adults with mild to severe head injuries. The subjects were first examined when alert and then 12 and 18 months following their first testing. The results support the following conclusions: (1) a broad range of early deficits occur representing the diversity of behavioral performances dependent on the brain; (2) improvement following losses occurs in complex as well as in simple neuropsychological functions; (3) on the basis of information available, conclusions regarding when recovery slows are premature; and most important, (4) the degree of initial deficit is a significant determinant of the subsequent amount of recovery and the residual deficits.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
