Brief Summary:
The currently proposed study addresses a critical need in the clinical care of school-aged children with TBI through the modification of an existing, proven efficacious treatment protocol for learning and memory deficits in persons with moderate to severe TBI, the modified Story Memory Technique (mSMT), as well as the conduct of a pilot double blind, placebo-controlled, RCT of this new pediatric adaptation of the mSMT. Over a decade of research and development conducted at our center has demonstrated the mSMT to be effective for improving new learning and memory in adults with TBI, across three realms of functioning: objective behavior, brain functioning and everyday life. This convincing data provides Class I evidence supporting the efficacy of the mSMT for improving new learning and memory in adults with TBI. Clinical applications around the world have equally attested to its utility in the clinical care of adults with TBI. This highlights the tremendous potential of the mSMT to vastly improve the everyday lives and educational successes of children and adoles-cents living with TBI and the resultant learning and memory deficits. The currently proposed pilot work will begin to document that efficacy. The results of this study therefore have the potential to change clinical practice, inform policy, and improve the lives of children and adolescents living with TBI.
