It is argued that an important aspect of rehabilitation after severe head injury lies in training or retraining victims in skills required for independent living. Despite this, very little is known about the training characteristics of head injured patients. It is shown that in the acquisition of a psychomotor skill severely head injured subjects have very poor starting levels as compared to normal controls. They show impressive learning to the extent that they considerably close the gap between themselves and the controls. They also show appreciable transfer of the learned skill from one version of the task to another. The findings are discussed in terms of their implications for further understanding of the training process in head injured subjects in ways that could reflect upon clinical practice in rehabilitation.
有人认为，重度颅脑损伤后康复的一个重要方面在于对受害者进行独立生活所需技能的训练或再训练。尽管如此，对于颅脑损伤患者的训练特点却知之甚少。研究表明，在获得一项心理运动技能方面，与正常对照组相比，重度颅脑损伤受试者的起始水平非常低。他们展现出了令人印象深刻的学习能力，以至于在很大程度上缩小了与对照组之间的差距。他们还表现出将所学技能从一种任务形式显著迁移到另一种任务形式的能力。本文根据这些发现对进一步理解颅脑损伤患者训练过程的意义进行了讨论，这些意义可能会对康复临床实践产生影响。
