“…This type of intervention is often defined as 'self-management education' -it focuses on a person's own empowerment by enhancing his/her self-efficacy to facilitate problem-solving related to everyday life [25]. This type of intervention has been common in the management of chronic diseases such as arthritis, and diabetes but has also been acknowledged as a possible intervention for people living with chronic stroke [26] as well as for improving perceived self-efficacy in people with traumatic brain injury and their caregivers [27]. For stroke, there is emerging evidence regarding selfmanagement education [28], and a growing consensus that rehabilitation cannot only focus on objective cognitive problems but also needs to include subjective problem-solving [29].…”

Data was analysed with qualitative content analysis.Findings: The findings formed the theme "The group rehabilitation helped me adjust to a new life" that revealed experiences related to the content and outcome of the programme, as well as the process they went through during the programme. The participants described how the rehabilitation gave them the tools they needed to change their everyday lives, especially in relation to improved knowledge, and learning new routines and habits. They perceived their rehabilitation as a long-term, individual, but also collaborative process, where professionals as well as family and friends had crucial roles. Conclusion:Learning how persons with acquired brain injury experience participation in a group rehabilitation program can help to unravel parts of the 'black box of rehabilitation', and can support professionals to better understand the effective components of such programmes.3

“…Furthermore, these findings suggest that therapeutic attempts to enhance self-efficacy during rehabilitation would be appropriate, as this seems to promote active coping. Cognitive behavioural therapy has shown to be effective in increasing the ability to implement adaptive coping strategies (36) and in improving coping self-efficacy (37).…”

Objectives: To investigate coping flexibility in patients with newly acquired brain injury and to investigate the influence of problem type, self-efficacy, self-awareness and self-reported executive functions on coping flexibility. Methods: Data were collected from a prospective clinical cohort study of 136 patients assessed after discharge home (mean time since injury = 15 weeks) and one year later. Situation-specific coping was measured by asking patients to complete the Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations (CISS) for 3 acquired brain injury (ABI)-related situations, which were then categorized into problem types (physical, cognitive, emotional, behavioural, communication, other). Coping consistency (number of strategies used throughout every situation) and variability (range in frequency of use of strategies over situations) were measured. Random effects regression analyses were used. Results: Patients used more task-oriented coping for cognitive compared with physical problems. Coping variability was limited. Reliance on emotion-oriented coping decreased over time. Higher self-efficacy correlated with increased task-oriented and avoidance coping and decreased emotionoriented coping. Greater self-reported problems in executive function correlated with greater consistency in task-oriented and emotion-oriented strategies. Conclusion: Patients with acquired brain injury rely on a defined set of coping options across situations and time. High self-efficacy increases active coping. Subjective executive dysfunction might hamper effective strategy selection.
