Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: People with acquired brain injury (ABI) often have Social Cognition (SC) deficits. Impairment of SC causes the individual to have difficulties in daily functioning and can lead to social isolation. Research aimed at rehabilitation of SC in individuals with ABI is scarce and almost always addresses only one component of this ability.
UNASSIGNED: This pilot study aimed to assess the effectiveness of the new \"SocialMind\" program in improving all core components of SC in people with ABI.
UNASSIGNED: The study included 31 participants with ABI, divided into experimental and control groups. The study spanned 44 weeks, involving an initial meeting, evaluation, training, and final assessment phases. The SocialMind program, structured into four modules, each with a duration of 30 h, targeted each SC component through tailored exercises. The program addressed emotion recognition, social awareness, ToM, and empathy.
UNASSIGNED: The SocialMind group demonstrated significant improvements in emotion recognition (p = 0.017), social knowledge (p < 0.001), and empathy (p = 0.001) compared to the control group. ToM also showed a notable improvement that approached significance (p = 0.057).
UNASSIGNED: This pilot study suggests that the SocialMind program effectively enhances three of the four core components of SC in individuals with ABI.
摘要:
患有获得性脑损伤(ABI)的人通常具有社会认知(SC)缺陷。SC受损会导致个人在日常工作中遇到困难,并可能导致社会孤立。针对ABI患者的SC康复的研究很少,几乎总是仅针对这种能力的一个组成部分。
这项试点研究旨在评估新的“SocialMind”计划在改善ABI患者SC的所有核心组成部分方面的有效性。
该研究包括31名患有ABI的参与者,分为实验组和对照组。这项研究历时44周,涉及初次会议,评估,培训,和最终评估阶段。SocialMind计划,分为四个模块,每个持续时间为30小时,通过量身定制的练习针对每个SC组件。该程序解决了情感识别,社会意识,ToM,和同理心。
SocialMind小组在情感识别方面表现出显着改善(p=0.017),社会知识(p<0.001),与对照组相比,同理心(p=0.001)。ToM还显示出接近显著性的显著改善(p=0.057)。
这项初步研究表明,SocialMind计划有效地增强了ABI患者的SC四个核心组成部分中的三个。
