title: Behavior adjustments in traumatic brain injury. A case study.
abstract: A traumatic assault to the brain often leaves significant residual effects, including severe behavioral dyscontrol. The person may demonstrate unwanted behaviors, such as physical aggression or verbal abuse, and lack motivation or the skills to engage in desirable behavior. ReMed, a community-based brain injury program, specializes in using a behavior analytic approach to address unwanted behaviors while understanding and developing strategies to further recovery from the brain injury.
