Factors Influencing Speech-Language Pathology Referral and Utilization in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: An Exploratory Analysis

Future work should continue to evaluate how assessments augment demographic and injury characteristics in decision making for both referral to and use of speech-language pathology services after mTBI.
