“…A multitude of scores and scales can be used to classify the TBI severity, ranging from neuropathological classifications, clinical scales, and neuropsychological tests. [ 1 ] The most widely clinical classification used is the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS),[ 21 ] which reflects the severity of patient’s coma. The severity classification based on the GCS is most commonly performed for its practicality and replicability.…”

“…The first limitation is a relatively small sample size (106 children in total), whereas the previous cluster analysis study for testing the continuum/spectrum model included data from 505 participants (Lancaster & Camarata, 2019). Although power analysis is generally not available for clustering methods, it is recommended to have as many participants as possible (Allen & Goldstein, 2013). The second limitation is different number of participants in each age group, which makes our samples unbalanced.…”

“…In their investigation, (Allen, Thaler, Cross, & Mayfield, 2013) in order to develop severity classifications based on TMT performance, Part A and Part B raw scores (time in seconds) were submitted to hierarchical cluster analysis using Ward's method with squared Euclidean distance as the distance measure. Ward's method of cluster analysis was selected because it is consistent with the cluster analytic methodology of previous studies of neuropsychological variables in children with TBI that examined TMT performance as an indicator of brain injury severity approximately one year following injury in children who sustained a TBI.…”
