Abstract
Disturbances of self-awareness after various brain injuries are diffic ult to measure. A distinction between impaired self-awareness versus d enial of disability following brain injury seems clinically warranted. An experimental rating scale to help clinicians evaluate these two in teracting disturbances is presented with interrater reliability data a nd an initial lest of construct validation.
