The importance of this research is that it demonstrates very clear patterns of differences between health symptoms of people with TBI and of a non-disabled comparison group. Because this research is based solely on self-report, no medical tests were available to validate the reported problems. We believe, however, the self-reports, obtained through in-depth individual interviews, validly represent perceptions of people with TBI. In the future, studies that include medical testing are needed to corroborate these findings.
