People with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) often have poor psychosocial outcomes. Poor memory may contribute to this because it impedes the ability to share experiences and reminisce about past experiences. This study was designed to determine whether photographic partial reminders would improve recall of incidentally learned complex events in people with severe TBI. Two groups of 10 people with severe TBI viewed videotapes of everyday events. One group was shown photographic reminders of half the events shown two days later on 3 occasions separated by 10 minutes. Twenty minutes after the last review (or control activity) both groups were tested for free recall and recognition of the videotape events. The reminder group recalled a greater percentage of reviewed events and objects per events recalled, but a similar number of actions per event recalled, compared to the control group. Photographic review did not decrease recall of nonreviewed events or affect recognition of reviewed or nonreviewed events.
