Abstract

Na een traumatisch hersenletsel, een veel voorkomende neurologische aandoening, heeft een groot deel van de patiënten cognitieve klachten, met name op het gebied van aandacht. In de literatuur is er consensus over een vertraagd tempo van informatieverwerking als blijvend restverschijnsel, maar als het gaat om stoornissen in aandacht en executieve functies lopen de bevindingen uiteen. In dit artikel wordt een promotieonderzoek beschreven dat erop gericht was dergelijke stoornissen, eventueel herstel, en de gevolgen ervan voor het dagelijks leven in kaart te brengen. Tevens werden theoretische vragen beantwoord over de onderlinge relatie van de begrippen ‘tempo’, ‘selectieve aandacht’ en ‘executieve controle’, en de meetbaarheid hiervan op testniveau.
