Artificial Intelligence, with its potential, may revolutionize this field further; therefore, this article explores applications of AI for neuropsychological rehabilitation of patients suffering brain injuries. This study employs a systematic review methodology to comprehensively review existing literature regarding Artificial Intelligence use in neuropsychological rehabilitation for people with brain injuries. The systematic review follows the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. A systematic search of electronic databases (PubMed, Scopus, PsycINFO, etc.) showed a total of 212 potentially relevant articles. After removing duplicates and screening titles and abstracts, 186 articles were selected for assessment. Following the assessment, 55 articles met the inclusion criteria and were included in this systematic review. A thematic analysis approach is employed to analyze and synthesize the extracted data. Themes, patterns, and trends are identified across the included studies, allowing for a comprehensive understanding of the applicability of AI in neuropsychological rehabilitation for patients with brain injuries. The identified topics were: AI Applications in Diagnostics of Brain Injuries and their Neuropsychological Repercussions; AI in Personalization and Monitoring of Neuropsychological Rehabilitation for traumatic brain injury (TBI); Leveraging AI for Predicting and Optimizing Neuropsychological Rehabilitation Outcomes in TBI Patients. Based on the review, it was concluded that AI has the potential to enhance neuropsychological rehabilitation for patients with brain injuries. By leveraging AI techniques, personalized rehabilitation programs can be developed, treatment outcomes can be predicted, and interventions can be optimized.</p>","PeriodicalId":51308,"journal":{"name":"Applied Neuropsychology-Adult","volume":" ","pages":"1-28"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141443736","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This explorative study aimed to evaluate the extent and type of problems in financial capability of people with PD without a diagnosis of dementia. Participants were 31 people with PD and 62 matched controls. Participants completed an extensive test-battery, including measures for financial capability and cognitive functioning. Compared to controls, the PD-group performed significantly poorer on two financial competence tasks and showed a comparable performance on the other financial capability measures. For 45% of the PD-group, cognitive test performance was indicative of mild cognitive impairment, yet no significant difference was observed in overall cognitive functioning between the PD and control group. In the total sample, only small or medium correlations were found between financial competence and cognition, and between financial capability and the contextual factors of income and financial experience. The findings suggest that in the earlier stages of PD, when cognitive impairments are relatively mild, some problems may be observed in financial competence, yet other domains of financial capability appear less affected. The absence of strong correlations between financial competence and overall cognitive functioning indicates that standard neuropsychological assessments seem inadequate to make financial capability determinations.

This study evaluated the recovery of emblems and tool use pantomimes of persons with severe non-fluent aphasia and limb apraxia after a left hemisphere stroke. The Florida Apraxia Screening Test-Revised (FAST-R) was used for measurements. The test includes 30 gestures to be performed (i) after an oral request, (ii) with the aid of a pictorial cue, or (iii) as an imitation. The gestures were rated on their degree of comprehensibility. The comprehensibility of gestures after an oral request improved significantly in five out of seven participants between the first (1-3 months after the stroke) and the last (3 years after) examination. Improvement continued for all five in the period between six months and three years. The imitation model did improve the comprehensibility of gestures for all participants, whereas the pictorial cue did so just slightly. The skill of producing gestures can improve even in the late phase post-stroke.
