N2  - Social competence assessment and training has long focused on specific skills within the clinical setting. In addition, emphasis has been placed on identifying deficits relative to an arbitrary, often idiosyncratic metric. In this article, we discuss the importance of the principles that underlie communication and which are reflected in the range of behaviours described as 'social competence'. We review methods we have found productive in the training of these principles with persons who have suffered traumatic brain injuries.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
