About this study

Official title: Instructional Design Strategies to Support Adult Patients/Students (Civilian & Military) With Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether learning styles are effective in the treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in an educational environment.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the learning outcome and effectiveness of instructional design strategy using Canfield's learning styles and Gardner's Multiple Intelligences to accommodate TBI-induced cognitive impairments in an online science learning environment.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Learning Effectiveness

    This study will explore the use of a cognitive rehabilitation approach as suggested by Gardner's Multiple Intelligences for its potential application to online course design for brain injured patients/students. It involves designing instruction for a science unit based on four of Canfield's learning styles.

    Measured: 3 Months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing CLSI, MI, CR and CLSI - Unknown in people with Brain Injuries and Brain Injuries, Traumatic, run by Center for Vision Development, New Market, Maryland at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Dec 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Learning Effectiveness (time frame: 3 Months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01417468, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 Dec 2012.
