Abstract: Impaired awareness of errors is common following traumatic brain injury (TBI) and can be a barrier to successful rehabilitation. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate a computer-based intervention programme aimed at improving error awareness in individuals with TBI. A further aim was to explore its effects on metacognitive awareness and variability of performance. Participants were 11 individuals with TBI and impaired error awareness who performed a sustained attention task twice-weekly for four weeks. The intervention consisted of audio-visual feedback-on-errors during the sustained attention task. Six participants received audio-visual feedback-on-error, five did not receive feedback. Emergent and metacognitive awareness were measured pre- and post-intervention. Between-groups comparisons of emergent awareness from pre- to post-intervention showed that audio-visual feedback-on-error improved emergent awareness compared to no feedback-on-error. Some changes in metacognitive awareness of executive behaviours as a result of feedback were observed. Audio-visual feedback-on-error improved emergent awareness in individuals with TBI following a four-week/eight-session intervention. This improvement was not observed in the no-feedback group. This pilot intervention is not a stand-alone treatment but it has potential to be usefully incorporated into cognitive or clinical rehabilitation programmes to improve emergent awareness.
