Common consequences following a TBI include reduced decision making capacity and sleep disturbances. We investigated the differences in decision making and sleep, and their relation to each other among individuals with a TBI. Poorer sleep, more urgency in decision making, worse scores on applying decision rules, and limited future time perspectives were found in the TBI group. Poorer sleep was associated with more urgency and limited future time perspectives.Back to Session: Welcome Reception and Poster Session
