Activity-related satisfaction and perceived self-efficacy of individuals with TBI during the COVID-19 pandemic

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in worldwide lockdown regulations impacting individuals’ access to, and participation in everyday activities. Individuals with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) face additional barriers to accessing important sources of support and intervention during this time. This study found that participation and self-efficacy amongst individuals living with a TBI following their injury were limited, and that the COVID-19 pandemic exacerbated these limitations, during online interviews conducted with eight individuals with chronic mild-to-moderate TBI.
