Lisa Jane Rapport

My work focuses on the value of neuropsychological assessment in predicting clinically-relevant outcomes such as functional independence, subjective well-being, community integration, and the quality of interpersonal relationships. I also examine the properties of tests to improve their validity and refine our understanding of their limitations. Much of our work examines longitudinal outcomes of people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Historically, we have also studied adults with hearing loss, multiple sclerosis, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, major depression, and other populations; however (for applicants to our lab), we do not have current projects examining those topics. Some of our recent projects have examined cognitive correlates of experienced and expressed emotion; assessment of effort and performance validity in cognitive evaluations; predictors of patient, caregiver, and family well-being; and psychosocial and neuroanatomical correlates of psychological resilience. We also completed a series of studies examining fitness to drive a motor vehicle after acquired brain injury using neuropsychological testing, on-road evaluations, and state-of-the-art driving simulator paradigms. Underlying themes of these projects focus on the role of awareness of deficit as a moderator of outcome.
