Longitudinal trajectories of family functioning following pediatric traumatic brain injury
These findings suggest that, while families operate at different levels of intimacy, conflict, and parenting flexibility, these do not change after a child's TBI. Given the established role of family functioning in shaping recovery outcomes, assessments of pre-injury family functioning may enable identification of families with children at risk for poorer outcomes post-TBI.
