Abstract Details

2016, Doctor of Psychology (Psy.D.), Xavier University, Psychology.
As many as 75% of stroke survivors suffer from executive dysfunction, which affects rehabilitation and functional outcomes (Lincoln, Kneebone, Macniven, & Morris, 2012). Executive dysfunction needs to be identified and taken into account during rehabilitation treatment, discharge planning, and long-term outcome. One measure of executive function used as part of a post-stroke cognitive screening battery is the Brixton Spatial Anticipation Test (Brixton; Burgess & Shallice, 1997), which yields three different error types. This study examined whether patients differ on error types by lesion site (left versus right) and whether particular types of errors on the Brixton are related to functional outcome after stroke as measured by the Functional Independence Measure (FIM). Analyses revealed that patients who made a higher number of type 2 errors involving misapplication of a rule and type 3 errors involving bizarre responses on the Brixton also had a lower cognitive FIM score at discharge. Future research on error types on the Brixton and functional abilities after discharge is discussed.
