Head injury information on cognition

Changes in executive skills such as reasoning, problem solving, and judgment affect not only an individual's abilities to think and learn, but they have an emotional impact as well. Cognitive and emotional issues are often interwoven as individuals struggle to find a new "sense of self" after brain injury. Cognitive changes can affect an adult's ability to find a job or return to work, to study in college, and to get along with friends and family. These tip cards on cognition discuss changes with self-awareness, communication, memory, and aging.
