Primary objective: This study examined the relationships between the Frontal Systems Behaviour Scale (FrSBe), neuropsychological tests and community integration outcomes among individuals with a history of TBI. Methods: Seventy-six individuals with a history of TBI were consecutively recruited from patients seen in a Neuropsychology clinic in an academic healthcare setting. Participants completed neuropsychological tests, the FrSBe and the Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ) as part of a…

Cognitive process scores associated with self-reported behavioral dysfunction on the Frontal Systems Behavior Scale (FrSBe) in chronic traumatic brain injury
TLDR
Less frequently utilized cognitive process scores from well-known neuropsychological tests may be better predictors of behavioral dysfunction in chronic TBI, as measured by the FrSBe.
Assessing Frontal Behavioral Syndromes and Cognitive Functions in Traumatic Brain Injury
TLDR
Although individuals with TBI demonstrated impairments in neuropsychological measures, including measures of executive functioning, few significant correlations were found between the patients’ FrSBe ratings and measures of cognitive functioning, which suggests that information from the FrS be may differ from information gathered during a cognitive evaluation and may enhance the understanding of the behavioral sequelae following TBI that may not be captured by neuroPsychological assessment alone.
Comparison of the Frontal Systems Behavior Scale and Neuropsychological Tests of Executive Functioning in Predicting Instrumental Activities of Daily Living
TLDR
The current results indicate that FrSBe Scale E is more important as a predictor of instrumental activity capacity than the two self-regulation measures, Scale A and Scale D.
Impact of Frontal Neurobehavioral Symptoms on Employment in Individuals With TBI
Objective: To explore the contribution of frontal systems behavioral dysfunction on employment outcomes in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI), in the context of relevant predictors of work…
Factor structure, reliability, and validity of the Frontal Systems Behavior Scale (FrSBe) in an acute traumatic brain injury population.
TLDR
The FrSBe is an appropriate measure for use in an inpatient TBI population when using the total score and the family administration, though its subscales and patient administration warrant more rigorous examination.
Are self-reported symptoms of executive dysfunction associated with objective executive function performance following mild to moderate traumatic brain injury?
TLDR
Self-reported depressive symptoms, rather than patients' cognitive complaints, are associated with objective executive function, however, self-reported cognitive complaints may be associated with objectively measured inattention and slow processing speed.
Does multitasking mediate the relationships between episodic memory, attention, executive functions and apathetic manifestations in traumatic brain injury?
TLDR
The results shed new light on the aetiology of apathetic manifestations in patients with TBI, indicating how specific cognitive deficits are expressed in real-life multitasking, and consequently, how they may lead to the development and/or maintenance of apathy manifestations.
Ecological validity of the screening module and the Daily Living tests of the Neuropsychological Assessment Battery using the Mayo-Portland Adaptability Inventory-4 in postacute brain injury rehabilitation.
TLDR
The current study assesses the predictive value of the Screening module and the Daily Living tests of the Neuropsychological Assessment Battery using clinician ratings from the Mayo-Portland Adaptability Inventory-4 in patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury.
Caregiver Burden in Frontotemporal Degeneration and Corticobasal Syndrome
TLDR
Apathy was more associated with caregiver burden than disinhibition, and the apathy FrSBE subscore predicted caregIVER burden.
The item level psychometrics of the behaviour rating inventory of executive function-adult (BRIEF-A) in a TBI sample
TLDR
The results provide support for the use of the BRIEF-A as a supplemental assessment of executive function in TBI populations, however, further validation is needed with other measures ofExecutive function.

TLDR
The FrSBe appears to be a sensitive measure of behavioral change in people with MS, and self-ratings and family ratings of behavioral changes are related to measures of neuropsychological performance, however, physical symptoms of MS are related only to the family Ratings of behavior.

Neuropsychological outcome and community re-integration following traumatic brain injury: The impact of frontal and non-frontal lesions
TLDR
Results are consistent with previous findings and document the potential for test score improvement with rehabilitation and suggest that lesion location needs to be considered when individual rehabilitation plans are being implemented in the post-acute stage of TBI.
Neuropsychological prediction of psychosocial outcome after traumatic brain injury.
TLDR
The RAVLT and the TMT Parts A and B in conjunction with age at time of injury significantly predicted psychosocial outcome as measured by individual self-report, and when self-reported functioning was examined by domain, these variables significantly predicted home and social adaptation.

THE COMMUNITY INTEGRATION QUESTIONNAIRE: A Comparative Examination
TLDR
Intercorrelations among the three subscales (home, social and productivity) demonstrated that the CIQ provides unique information in the assessment of community integration for persons with TBI.

Factor Analysis of the Frontal Systems Behavior Scale (FrSBe)
TLDR
An exploratory principal factor analysis of the FrSBe–Family Version confirmed a factor structure consistent with the three subscales proposed on the theoretical basis of the frontal systems and supported its utility for assessing both the severity of the three frontal syndromes in aggregate and separately.
Comparison of the Community Integration Questionnaire, the Craig Handicap Assessment and Reporting Technique, and the Disability Rating Scale in Traumatic Brain Injury
TLDR
The CIQ appears to be the most appropriate instrument in quantifying rehabilitation outcome in patients with TBI at the participatory (handicap) level as well as two widely used and well-validated measurements of rehabilitation outcome.
