Controlled Study of Affect Recognition Training for Individuals With Acquired Brain Injury

University at Buffalo·interventional·Posted Jan 27, 2006·Updated Aug 4, 2014

In Brief

A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Facial Affect Recognition Training and Stories of Emotional Inference for Acquired Brain Injury (Including Stroke). Completed, enrolled 71 participants across 4 sites in 3 countries.

Detailed Summary

The purpose of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of three training programs designed to teach persons with acquired brain injury (ABI) to recognize emotions. It is hypothesized that the training programs will enhance several aspects of emotion recognition in persons with ABI. Furthermore, it is expected that these effects will be maintained over time, and will positively influence participants' social behavior and integration.

Interventions

Facial Affect Recognition Trainingbehavioral

A series of pictures of faces displaying various emotions are presented one at a time using a computerized training program.Participants are taught to recognize how emotions affect facial features such as the mouth and eyes.Participants are also taught how to recognize their own emotions.

Stories of Emotional Inferenceother

Participants are presented with a series of short stories one at a time. Each story presents various contextual cues regarding the emotions the characters are likely to experience. Participants learn to connect the cues to specific emotions.
