Abstract

Long-term follow-up has been performed of 205 subjects with brain injury aftereffects. Complete social adaptation (the ability to resume previous work and the absence of posttraumatic complaints), relative social adaptation (the ability to resume previous work, occasional complaints), partial social adaptation (change of previous job for an easier one, frequent complaints), dysadaptation (disability to work, disorganization of life stereotype) were recorded in 28, 45, 92 and 40 patients, respectively. Statistical evaluation suggested 14 factors to determine the status of the posttraumatic social adaptation. These include acute traumatic, premorbid, general biological characteristics of the personality, posttraumatic clinical manifestations (neurological, psychogenic, somatic). "Psychopathological syndrome" served the criterion distinguishing the degrees of adaptation defects.
