使用货币、计算货币、支付账单、开支票或购物是每天都会发生的事情。脑损伤的各种认知后遗症(如注意力、语言、执行功能)常常扰乱个人的理财技能。本文描述了一种新的工具--功能性货币技能评估(AFMS)的发展和特点，该工具旨在评估脑损伤患者的实用和功能性货币管理技能。文中还讨论了原子力显微镜与其他类似仪器相比的优点。此外，还提供了三个脑损伤患者的案例说明，描述了使用AFMS所产生的定量和定性信息，以及这些信息如何对恢复资金管理技能有价值。
Using money, totalling currencies, paying bills, writing cheques, or making purchases are daily occurrences. The various cognitive sequelae of brain injury (e. g. attention, language, executive functions) often disrupt an individual's money management skills. This paper describes the development and characteristics of a new instrument, the Assessment of Functional Monetary Skills (AFMS), designed to evaluate practical and functional money management skills in individuals with brain injury. The advantages of the AFMS compared to other similar instruments are also discussed. In addition, three case illustrations of individuals with brain injury are provided which describe both the quantitative and qualitative information that result from administrating the AFMS, and how such information is valuable in rehabilitating money management skills.
