Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The present study made a questionnaire about the cognitive burden in the occupation and carried it out for 15 working subjects with cognitive dysfunction after TBI. Their cognitive function was measured by a set of neuropsychological examinations and the observation at the outpatient office. When the levels of cognitive function and the cognitive burden in occupation were profiled and compared, eight subjects showed the “bottleneck” pattern, three showed the “fairly matching” pattern, and four showed the “poorly matching” pattern. The questionnaire about the cognitive burden in the occupation is useful to clarify burdens in the wide variety of cognitive domains. In future, we want to apply this questionnaire in the survey of candidate workspaces before subjects with cognitive dysfunction return to work.
