Abstract | Background: This thesis describes the collaborative development and preliminary evaluation of a new psychoeducational resource for children and young people (CYP) who have experienced an acquired brain injury (ABI). Despite being acknowledged as a key aspect of neurorehabilitation associated with improved outcomes, the informational needs of CYP and their families are often not met (Danzi, Etter, Andretta & Kitzman, 2012; Forsyth et al., 2017). Whilst a number of informational resources are currently available, these are primarily developed for younger audiences, or those with milder forms of ABI that do not result in enduring neurocognitive impairment such as for concussion. A new psychoeducational resource may have the potential to meet these needs, particularly if grounded in theoretical and therapeutic research and theory, and delivered in a developmentally and pedagogically coherent manner. |
