by Robert P. Lehr Jr., Ph.D.
People who suffer brain injuries frequently behave in ways that are quite different from what we might expect. They often say and do things that are not typical of the way they acted prior to the injury. In particular they may act in aggressive ways and say and do things that seem extreme. Many patients experience emotional outbursts, expressing thoughts that are less than acceptable in the social environment surrounding them. Why do they do this and where are the structures in the brain that might be responsible for these actions?

What are cognitive problems? Cognitive problems are specific skill deficits that may occur following a brain injury. Some of the most common cognitive problems are: • Arousal or over-stimulation • Attention and filtering • Information coding and retrieval (memory) • Learning, both using old information and acquiring new information • Problem Solving • Higher-level thinking skills known as executive skills.Some cognitive problems clear over time and through rehabilitation, while others may persist and require specific rehabilitation interventions. There is a relationship between cognitive problems and neurobehavioral problems http://www.biail.org/ info@biail.org (312) 726-5699 or 800-699-6443
