Speaker: Olivier Brown, PhD Student in Experimental Psychology, University of Ottawa
Host: Taylor Pigott
Concussed children and adolescents can experience a variety of somatic, emotional, cognitive, and neurophysiological symptoms. Concurrent research has identified numerous factors that are associated with the rate of recovery from pediatric concussion. Some evidence suggests that psychological resilience might impact the recovery process in concussion. This webinar will explore the potential for positive psychology on the recovery from pediatric concussion.
