Associations between significant head injury and cognitive function, disability, and crime in adult men in prison in Scotland UK: a cross-sectional study
A history of repeated SHI is very common in adult men in prison and is associated with a greater risk of crime including violence. Disability after SHI often affects social relationships and is associated with multiple health problems. There is a need for policy and interventions to account for the "weave" of multiple health needs of people in prison, which includes history of SHI.
