This case study investigated the effects of the Attention Process Training-II (APT-II) program with a small population of individuals (N = 7) with moderate to severe traumatic brain injuries (TBI), several years post-injury, from a community-based independent living program. Individuals with TBI commonly experience cognitive deficits that persist several years post-injury. There are growing numbers of individuals in this country and abroad incurring TBI. The research literature points to evidence of the recuperative ability or neuroplasticity of the injured brain and the ability to benefit from rehabilitation. Parametric procedures and the related samples t test were used to determine if the differences between the pre- and posttreatment scores were statistically significant. Individuals were assigned to 8 weeks of APT-II for 2 sessions per week. The findings were evaluated for clinically significant change and qualitative reports of changes in levels of attention. There were no statistically significant changes in performance among all 7 participants on objective outcome measures following APT-II participation. Participants 1, 3, 4, and 7 had clinically significant changes in performance on select outcome measures. Participants 1--6 reported qualitative changes in day-to-day functioning following APT-II participation. Preliminary findings do not fully support the use of APT-II for this select population of individuals with TBI. Clinical implications and recommendations for the administration of cognitive rehabilitation for individuals several years post-TBI receiving community-based services are discussed.
