Objective

Data Sources
PubMed and Infotrieve literature searches were conducted using the terms attention, awareness, cognitive, communication,executive, language, memory, perception, problem solving, and/or reasoning combined with each of the following terms:rehabilitation, remediation, and training for articles published between 2003 and 2008. The task force initially identified citations for 198 published articles.
Study Selection
One hundred forty-one articles were selected for inclusion after our initial screening. Twenty-nine studies were excluded after further detailed review. Excluded articles included 4 descriptive studies without data, 6 nontreatment studies, 7 experimental manipulations, 6 reviews, 1 single case study not related to TBI or stroke, 2 articles where the intervention was provided to caretakers, 1 article redacted by the journal, and 2 reanalyses of prior publications. We fully reviewed and evaluated 112 studies.
