Objective: To examine whether cognitive functioning is related to community integration and satisfaction with community integration in older adults with and without traumatic brain injury (TBI). Design: Observational, cross-sectional. Setting: Research center at a large, urban medical center. Participants: 87 participants with TBI and 60 people with no history of TBI. Those with TBI ranged from 6 months to 77 years postinjury. Interventions: Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures: Participants were given a neuropsychologic battery and measure of community integration. Cognitive functioning was measured through sum z scores measuring attention, processing speed, memory, language, and executive functioning. Community integration was measured using the Living Life After Traumatic Brain Injury structured interview. Results: Cognitive functioning, as measured by attention, processing speed, memory, language, and executive functioning did not correlate with objective community integration or satisfaction with participation in older adults with or without TBI. Conclusions: These results suggest that cognitive functioning, as measured by traditional neuropsychologic tests, does not predict level of participation or satisfaction with community integration in older adults with and without TBI.
