Abstract

This study sought to determine to what extent chronic stress, depression and neurobehavioural consequences explained post-TBI subjective memory complaints (SMC). An observational, cross-sectional design was used. One hundred and fifty-nine persons who were 1-36 months post-injury provided data using interviews, chart reviews and surveys. Predictor variables included the Center for Epidemiological Studies-Depression Scale (CES-D), Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14) and sub-scales of the NFI. SMC, according to the Neurobehavioural Functioning Inventory (NFI), was the main outcome variable. SMC could best be explained by increased age, months-since-injury, chronic situational stress and the frequency of somatic and communication difficulties, not depression (R(2)= 0.780, F = 97.39, [8, 152], p < 0.001). These findings suggest that, for persons in the chronic phase of recovery from their TBI, specific determinants other than general adjustment issues may apply. These include: increased chronic stress, age, somatic symptoms and communication difficulties. Self-reported chronic situational stress is positively associated with self-reported memory complaints, as well as somatic and communication difficulties. The causal ordering of these...Continue Reading
