Abstract
Objective: The purpose of this study was to (a) identify the prevalence and barriers of self-reported service needs in a military sample with and without traumatic brain injury (TBI), (b) evaluate the influence of the number of service needs on overall neurobehavioral functioning, and (c) examine the longitudinal trajectories of service needs over time.
Method: Participants were 941 U.S. service members and veterans (SMVs) prospectively enrolled into four groups: uncomplicated mild TBI (MTBI; n = 455); complicated mild, moderate, severe, and penetrating TBI combined (STBI; n = 164); injured controls (IC, n = 138); and noninjured controls (NIC, n = 184). Participants completed a battery of neurobehavioral measures, as well as a self-reported service need interview, 12 or more month's postinjury. In addition, a longitudinal cohort (n = 553) was included using a subset of participants who had completed two or more evaluations.
Results: When examining the total number of self-reported service needs, there was a greater proportion of the MTBI and STBI groups that had a higher number of service needs compared to the NIC and IC groups (p < .001). In the MTBI and STBI groups, as the number of service needs increased, worse scores were found on all neurobehavioral measures. In the longitudinal cohort, the STBI group reported the highest number of service needs that persisted or developed over time (six needs), followed by the MTBI (three needs), IC (one need), and NIC (zero need) groups.
Conclusions: These findings call for the need to enhance the provision of information given to service members and veterans following TBI regarding available services. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
