Miserable minority: emotional risk factors that influence the outcome of a mild traumatic brain injury

RUFF, RONALD M., CAMENZULI, LORRAINE, MUELLER, JONATHAN·1996·Brain Injury

Abstract

Emotional risk factors are explored in four case studies, each of whom had sustained a mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI). Selected pre-existing personality traits that compounded the symptom presentation included over-achievement, dependency, grandiosity and borderline personality traits. Premorbid risk factors are described and their influence on co-morbid and post-morbid difficulties is discussed. We also touched upon the therapeutic issues involved in our cases. General treatment considerations are highlighted for dealing with grandiosity, narcissistic features and borderline traits. Over-achievement and perfectionism are discussed in the context of providing treatment for stress management. Finally, the effect of pre-existing emotional trauma combined with the MTBI is discussed.

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.
