Personality and behavioural change after severe blunt head injury--a relative's view.
Open accessAbstract
A close relative of 55 severely head injured adults rated the personality of the patient at 3, 6 and 12 months after injury, using a Yes/No judgement, and analogue scales comprising bipolar adjectives. The relative assessed the "current" as well as the "premorbid" personality at each time. Personality change was associated with many negative scores on the analogue scale, and increasing negative scores were associated with high "subjective burden" on the relative. Severity of injury (post-traumatic amnesia) was of no significance in predicting the extent or pattern of personality change.

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.
