OBJECTIVE. We examined participation in goal planning and development of self-awareness for people. with impaired self-awareness after traumatic brain injury.METHOD. We performed a mixed-methods study of 8 participants recently discharged from inpatient rehabilitation. Self,awareness via measured using discrepancy between self and significant other ratings on the Mayo Portland Adaptability Index (MPAI-4) at four time points. We calculated effect size to evaluate the change in MPAI-4 discrepancy over time.RESULTS. Seven participants identified their own goals. We found a large reduction in mean MPAI-4 discrepancy (M = 8.57, SD = 6.59, N = 7, d = 1.08) in the,first 6 wk and a further small reduction (M = 5.33, SD = 9,09, N = 6, d = 0.45) in the second 6 wk of intervention. Case data indicated that 7 participants demonstrated some growth in self-awareness.CONCLUSION. Engagement in occupation-based, goal-directed rehabilitation appeared to foster awareness of injury-related changes to varying extents.
