Abstract
The clinical population of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is one in which reported difficulties often relate to very high-level cognitive, linguistic, motoric, and pragmatic function. It is a population that represents a rapidly expanding and transforming subset of overall clinical caseload and one in which attempts to measure recovery outcome must increasingly focus on a wide array of social, economic, academic, and employment criteria. This article aims to provide an overview of the types of outcome measures available, the benefits and limitations of each, and potential opportunities and barriers for their implementation in a clinical setting.
