An occupation-based video feedback intervention for improving self-awareness: Protocol and rationale

Abstract

Background.

Impaired self-awareness can limit rehabilitation outcomes for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Video feedback on occupational performance has been found to improve self-awareness after TBI when delivered according to specific principles.

Purpose.

The purpose of this article is to describe an occupation-based video feedback intervention found to be effective in a randomized controlled trial to assist with translation into clinical practice.

Key Issues.

The intervention uses therapist-mediated video feedback on clients’ occupational performance, aiming to facilitate self-reflection on performance and improve self-awareness. This paper describes the theoretical background, intervention principles, and protocol of the intervention.

Implications.

Therapists can use video feedback intervention, incorporating the principles in this article, to improve people’s intellectual awareness and ability to recognize and correct errors during task performance after TBI without a negative impact on emotional status.

Description.

Une altération de la conscience de soi peut limiter les résultats en matière de réadaptation chez les personnes ayant subi un traumatisme cérébral. On a démontré qu’une rétroaction vidéo sur le rendement occupationnel améliore la conscience de soi chez les personnes ayant subi un traumatisme cérébral, lorsque l’intervention est effectuée en fonction de certains principes spécifiques.

But.

Décrire une intervention basée sur la rétroaction vidéo dont on a démontré l’efficacité dans un essai clinique randomisé, afin de favoriser l’application de cette intervention dans la pratique clinique.

Questions clés.

L’intervention est basée sur une rétroaction vidéo sur le rendement occupationnel des clients, dirigée par l’ergothérapeute, dans le but de faciliter l’autoréflexion face au rendement et d’améliorer la conscience de soi. Cet article décrit les fondements théoriques, les principes de l’intervention et le protocole de l’intervention.

Conséquences.

Les ergothérapeutes peuvent utiliser l’intervention basée sur la rétroaction vidéo, tout en incorporant les principes décrits dans cet article, pour améliorer la conscience intellectuelle des personnes et leur capacité de reconnaître et de corriger leurs erreurs lors de l’exécution d’une tâche après avoir subi un traumatisme cérébral, sans avoir d’impact négatif sur l’état émotionnel.
