Summary
One hundred twenty-five U.S. Military Service members who sustained a traumatic brain injury (TBI) underwent neurocognitive testing and completed brief psychological measures to identify factors associated with post concussion symptom reporting. Post concussional disorder symptom reporting was strongly associated with possible symptom exaggeration, poor effort, depression and traumatic stress.
