Cognitive Rehabilitation for Trauma Survivors with Traumatic Brain Injury
Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital are studying a virtual program called "A Trauma-informed, Paraprofessional Delivered Virtual Cognitive Rehabilitation Program" to help people affected by trauma who also have a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and problems with thinking or memory. This includes asylum-seekers, refugees, and survivors of intimate partner violence. The study aims to see if this program is practical and if participants find it helpful. You might be able to join if you are between 18 and 65, have mild or moderate TBI, experience cognitive (thinking) problems, and speak English or Spanish. The study plans to enroll 50 participants and is currently checking if the program is acceptable and feasible over an average of 8 weeks, with follow-up at 12 and 24 weeks.
- Study design
- This interventional study plans to enroll 50 participants. Participants will be assigned to a group by chance, with one group starting the program immediately.
- What's involved
- You will complete an initial questionnaire, participate in approximately 8 individual virtual sessions, and then complete follow-up questionnaires around 3 months and 6 months after the first one.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Participants will be followed for 24 weeks after the intervention to assess acceptability.

What this trial measures
- Acceptability of the interventionThrough Intervention participation, an average of 8 weeks, and at the 12 weeks and 24 weeks follow-up questionnaires.
At least 70% of participants will complete 7 or more sessions. At least 70% of participants will complete their homework. At least 80% of participants will complete the study and 12 weeks assessment. At least 60% of participants will complete the 24 weeks assessment.
- Acceptability of the interventionAfter the intervention at the 12 weeks and 24 weeks follow-up questionnaires.
At least 70% of participants will score over the midpoint in the 4-item Acceptability of Intervention Measure. The AIM scale values range from 1 to 5 with a higher score of 20. Higher scores indicate greater acceptability.
- Feasibility of the interventionBaseline, and through Intervention participation, an average of 8 weeks.
At least 80% of people approached will agree to participate (feasibility of recruitment). At least 70% of participants will have no measures fully missing (feasibility of assessments).
- Feasibility of the interventionAfter the intervention at 12 weeks and 24 weeks follow-up questionnaires.
At least 70% of participants will score over the midpoint in the 4-item Feasibility of Intervention Measure (FIM). The FIM is a scale whose values range from 1-5 and a higher score of 20. Higher scores indicate greater acceptability.
- Satisfaction with the interventionAfter the intervention at the, 12 weeks and 24 weeks follow-up questionnaires.
At least 70% of participants will score over the midpoint in the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire (CSQ-8). Scores for the CSQ-8 range from 8 to 32 and higher scores indicate greater satisfaction.
