“…It thus seems that further research in this domain is necessary. 48,49 ) The aim of this article is to present and verify the effectiveness of a new rehabilitation program-Cognitive Pragmatic Treatment (CPT)-developed to take into account the main components, that is, executive functions, and ToM, related to communication competence and useful for reintegrating patients with TBI into their social environment. The novelty of the CPT is that it adopted a different theoretical perspective with respect those already existing in the literature, that is, the Cognitive Pragmatic theory, 30,[50][51][52][53] focused on the cognitive and inferential processes underlying human communication.…”

“…They display problems in structuring content according to its relevance (Bootsma et al, 2021), to stay on topic, and to include the perspective of their dialog partners. CCD can be seen in a lack of a common thread, as well as in difficulties in "getting to the point" and "striking the right tone" (Togher et al, 2004;Gindri et al, 2014;Dromer et al, 2021;Büttner-Kunert et al, 2022;Elbourn et al, 2022). This is aggravated by the fact that individuals with CCD do not always fully perceive their communicative limitations and incoherence because they often lack the awareness for it (Büttner and Glindemann, 2019;Büttner-Kunert et al, 2021).…”

BackgroundIndividuals with chronic traumatic brain injury (TBI) are often affected by communication disorders which might have an impact on their social participation. Due to possible cognitive and communicative disabilities, as well as impairments of social cognitive skills, individuals with TBI have been observed to exhibit difficulties in maintaining and establishing social relationships, resulting in a greater risk of social isolation. This applies to both in-person as well as computer-mediated communication (CMC), which is considered an integral part of everyday life. Research on digital participation in the TBI population has focused on the possible challenges and barriers, but also on the benefits of CMC for social interactions. Guidelines from professional societies recommend questionnaires and checklists for assessing restrictions of communicative participation (e.g., ASHA, INCOG). However, there is no overview of whether the available instruments can capture digital aspects of participation or social media use in TBI.AimIn this scoping review, following the PRISMA criteria, we aimed to provide an overview over currently available instruments that help assess CMC use as a measure of digital participation in the TBI population.MethodThe databases Web of Science Core Collection, Ovid, PsycInfo and Psyndex were screened for publications between the years 2013 and 2023 with relevant search terms referring to social participation, assessment tools, CMC and the target group, in order to find suitable tools to assess digital participation in individuals with TBI. In a multistage selection process following the PRISMA criteria, the instruments found were examined in terms of items that assess digital participation. The outcome of the review is an overview of the status quo of potentially available instruments that capture aspects of CMC.ResultsFollowing a screening on title/abstract and full-text level, a total of 10 studies could be identified that present assessment tools that evaluate CMC use as a measure of digital participation in the TBI population. Said studies were analyzed and compared in terms of content according to the selected parameters.ConclusionDigital participation is an important aspect of everyday lives for individuals with TBI. Therefore, CMC should be an integral part of rehabilitation. The existing appropriate questionnaires uncovered in the current study should therefore be applied routinely to detect impairments in CMC and digital participation. Overall, however, there is still a great need for research in the field of CMC, both regarding methods for measuring digital participation disorders as well as resources.Systematic Review Registrationhttps://www.germanistik.uni-muenchen.de/forschung/proj_gl/review_participation_tbi.pdf.

“…However, only from the 1970s on, with the advance in researches on cognitive, psycholinguistic, and neuroanatomical functional models, more systemic researches have been initiated about the functional linguistic components related to the right hemisphere (RH) -nonliteral semantic, discursive, and pragmatic components. In this same period, with the evolution of behavioral and neuroimaging studies, it became possible to verify that a lesion in the right hemisphere (LRH) may cause communication disorders (1)(2)(3)(4) .…”
