“…Brain-injured individuals mistakenly may be given little credit for making such discriminations, and the result may be erroneous behavioral observation and consequent poor intervention design and implementation. This study suggests that brain-injured individuals with problematic behavior should be assessed across multiple settings, and interventions should be designed with implementation across various contexts in mind (Hegel, 1988;Page et al, 1992).…”

“…Behavioral psychologists are active members of most interdisciplinary treatment teams in rehabilitation centers (Callon & Jackson, 1995;Foster, 1988;Page et al, 1992). The chief role of the psychologist is to design and implement milieu and individual behavioral programs aimed at maximizing therapeutic regimes and reducing problem behaviors (Callon & Jackson, 1995;Foster, 1988;Gouvier et al, 1985).…”

“…However, well-controlled studies of the efficacy of behavioral procedures used in treating the severely brain injured are lacking. To date, the vast majority of published articles are case reports, and there are a few multiple-baseline designs (Hegel, 1988;Page et al, 1992). Clearly, well-established behavioral procedures and the empirical testing of them are needed.…”

Severe brain injury can result in significant neurobehavioral and social functioning impairment. In rehabilitation settings, behavioral problems of aggression and nonadherence to therapeutic activities can pose barriers to maximal recovery of function. Behavioral interventions seem to be effective in reducing problem behavior among individuals recovering from severe brain trauma, but well-controlled studies examining the efficacy of such interventions are sparse. This article presents a single-case, multiple-baseline study of a differential reinforcement of other behavior (DRO) procedure in a 28-year-old, brain-injured male with aggressive behavior problems. The procedure successfully reduced the frequency of problem behavior by up to 74%, maintained at 1-month follow-up. Implications of this intervention for individuals with brain injury are discussed, and testing of this procedure using a between-group design seems indicated.

“…The consequences of agitation can include interrupting treatment (Burke, Wesolowski, & Lane, 1988). These outcomes of agitation are illustrated in the results of studies of agitation after TBI Mysiw, Jackson, & Corrigan, 1988;Page, 1992;Prigatano, 1987). Prigatano (1987) indicated that uncontrolled agitation might lead to rehabilitation failure.…”

“…Prigatano (1987) indicated that uncontrolled agitation might lead to rehabilitation failure. Page et al (1992) stated that agitation subsequent to TBI hampered the rehabilitation process and delayed recovery. In the review article by Day (1999) and , the authors summarized the consequences of agitation as disruptions of nursing care or therapy in their definition of agitation.…”

Effect of Preferred Music on Agitation After Traumatic Brain Injury

Agitation is a common behavioral problem after traumatic brain injury (TBI), which threatens the safety of patients and caregivers and disrupts the rehabilitation process. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a preferred music intervention on the reduction of agitation in TBI patients and to compare the effects of preferred music with those of classical "relaxation" music. A single group, within-subjects, randomized crossover trial design was formed, consisting of 14 agitated patients with cognitive impairment after severe TBI. Patients listened to preferred music and classical "relaxation" music, with a wash-out period in between. Patients listening to the preferred music reported a significantly greater reduction in agitation compared with the effect seen during the classical "relaxation" music intervention (p = .046). These findings provide preliminary evidence that the preferred music intervention may be effective as an environmental therapeutic approach for reducing agitation after TBI.
