What is it about?
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) can significantly impact communication, yet research on recovery beyond one year post-injury is limited. This study uses quantitative and qualitative measures to explore how individuals with severe TBI experience changes in recounting important events up to two years post-injury.

Why is it important?
While previous research focusses on early recovery, this paper provides new insights into communication changes up to two years post-injury, highlighting key areas to focus on for ongoing recovery. Using important event recounts can be a useful method to measure recovery, and can be combined with computerised analysis.
