Often the Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) is used to assess balance during a clinical evaluation of a patient presenting with mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI). Although recent research has shown the benefits of using inertial sensor measures such as the Root Mean Square (RMS) of the acceleration in place of clinical scoring, few normative data are available for clinicians to reference. The purpose of this paper was to provide normative data collected using wearable sensors for healthy controls across three age groups, as well as providing cohort data for mTBI participants across three stages following injury (acute, sub-acute and chronic). The RMS in the Medio-Lateral direction (ML RMS sway) of each condition (double stance – DS; single stance – SS; and tandem stance – TS) was extracted per participant for analysis. The average ML RMS sway across all conditions was also calculated (ML RMS-Av). Percentiles were calculated to provide normative data, and two multivariate general linear models were used to evaluate differences between 1) non-athlete controls, athlete controls, and athletes with acute mTBI, and 2) non-athletic cohorts of control, sub-acute and chronic mTBI groups across young, middle-aged, and older adults. Model 1 revealed athletes with acute mTBI had more ML RMS sway than athlete controls the for the DS condition ( p < 0.001), but no differences with non-athlete controls. Athlete controls also had less ML RMS sway for the SS condition and ML RMS-Av ( p ≤ 0.022) compared with non-athlete controls. Model 2 revealed less ML RMS sway in the control group than the sub-acute and chronic mTBI groups for DS ( p ≤ 0.004), but no differences between the sub-acute and chronic group, while more ML RMS sway occurred in the chronic group compared with the control and sub-acute groups for the TS condition and ML RMS-Av ( p ≤ 0.013). Older adults had more ML RMS sway than young and middle-aged adults for SS, TS and ML RMS-Av ( p ≤ 0.019), while there were no differences between the young and middle-aged adults. Normative values presented here can help increase the practical application of instrumented balance assessment of mTBI patients through wearable sensors. ML RMS sway in the DS condition provided the clearest distinction between control and mTBI groups, but we caution that young adult athletes need to be assessed against athletic peers in the absence of baseline normative values. In non-athlete cohorts, age and gender norms may not be necessary to consider when assessing DS performance; however, age may be an important factor to consider when accessing norms for other stance conditions or the average performance across all conditions.

Cognitive Control

Abstract Cognitive control constrains retrieval processing and so restricts what comes to mind as input to the attribution system. We review evidence that older adults, patients with Alzheimer's disease, and people with traumatic brain injury exert less cognitive control during retrieval, and so are susceptible to memory misattributions in the form of dramatic levels of false remembering.

Skill Deficits

Social skill deficits following severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) are prevalent. However, the development and provision of pro-active treatments for these deficits during rehabilitation have not kept pace with the need. Previous research described the development and presented encouraging data for community-based intensive social skills and work readiness training programs for adults with a brain injury. Brain injury residuals present similar social and vocational challenges to professionals worldwide. As such, this paper proposes these rehabilitation services may be replicated across cultures. To facilitate crosscultural replication, a training framework is shared. Australian rehabilitation counsellors may use this framework to replicate these services and contribute to the community reintegration of adults with brain injury.
