Abstract text:	Recent research has documented residual deficits in attention following traumatic brain injury in childhood. The present study aimed to investigate whether such deficits are global, or affect specific components of attention differentially. Four attentional domains were examined using a newly developed test of attention, the Test of Everyday Attention for Children: sustained attention, focused attention, divided attention, and response inhibition. Eighteen children with a history of traumatic brain injury, aged between 8 and 14 years, and 18 non-injured matched controls participated in the study. Results indicated that attentional skills may be differentially impaired after TBI, with children who have sustained moderate-to-severe TBI exhibiting significant deficits for sustained and divided attention, and response inhibition, but relatively intact focused attention.

The Reprint Request service is currently unavailable. The webform interface is not passing on your requests despite saying it has. PDF's of articles are also not available unless specifically linked from the record under the link field. Open Access papers are accessible this way when available. We are not able to fulfill pdf requests due to copyright and contractual restrictions. Inclusion in the Bibliography does not mean that a copy is available, this is foremost a record of the unit's work. Papers marked 'In Press' have not been published so are not available. Books and tests are also not available for copying. These are commerical products and you will need to buy them, or indeed contact your local library service to get a copy. If a record is from a conference and does not show more than one page number then the record/abstract on the page is the complete record. These are mainly a record of participation in a conference, such as a poster or a talk. Some of these records represent literally nothing more than a line.
