Abstract
Our actions and decisions in everyday life are heavily influenced by social interactions, which are dynamic feedback loops involving actions, reactions, and internal cognitive processes between individual agents. Social interactions induce interpersonal synchrony, which occurs at different biobehavioral levels and comprises behavioral, physiological, and neurological activities. Hyperscanning-a neuroimaging technique that simultaneously measures the activity of multiple brain regions-has provided a powerful second-person neuroscience tool for investigating the phase alignment of neural processes during interactive social behavior. Neural synchronization, revealed by hyperscanning, is a phenomenon called inter-brain synchrony- a process that purportedly facilitates social interactions by prompting appropriate anticipation of and responses to each other's social behaviors during ongoing shared interactions. In this review, I explored the therapeutic dual-brain approach using noninvasive brain stimulation to target inter-brain synchrony based on second-person neuroscience to modulate social interaction. Artificially inducing synchrony between the brains is a potential adjunct technique to physiotherapy, psychotherapy, and pain treatment- which are strongly influenced by the social interaction between the therapist and patient. Dual-brain approaches to personalize stimulation parameters must consider temporal, spatial, and oscillatory factors. Multiple data fusion analysis, the assessment of inter-brain plasticity, a closed-loop system, and a brain-to-brain interface can support personalized stimulation.

Abstract
Meaningful steps have been taken toward using holistic approaches in outpatient rehabilitation for traumatic brain injury (TBI) (i.e., treating the whole individual); however, research and practice continue to disproportionately focus on adapting to physical and cognitive changes. Research suggests treatment focusing on individual values may be important for psychological adjustment after TBI. The current study sought to explore individual values across multiple life domains in those with TBI as well as what values outpatient rehabilitation was helpful for, and to examine discrepancies between these factors (i.e., value-consistent rehabilitation) in relation to important long-term treatment outcomes. 215 adults with a history of TBI who had participated in outpatient rehabilitation completed online surveys assessing how consistent outpatient rehabilitation was with individual values, psychological flexibility, and quality of life. The life domains with the greatest discrepancies between individual importance and rehabilitation helpfulness were spirituality, intimate relations, and family relations. Greater value-consistent rehabilitation was associated with higher levels of psychological flexibility and quality of life beyond demographics and injury characteristics. Our findings provide further support in favour of holistic, client-centred approaches that are facilitated by neurological rehabilitation programs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Prospective memory (PM) failure can limit independence and productivity following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Compensatory strategy use may ameliorate the effect of PM impairment on daily life but requires sufficient self-awareness. Metacognitive skills training (MST) can facilitate self-awareness and strategy use and may improve the efficacy of PM rehabilitation. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of compensatory strategy training (COMP) with an MST component (COMP-MST) for reducing everyday PM failure and improving psychosocial integration in adults with moderate-severe TBI, compared to COMP alone and a control condition. Secondary aims were to evaluate the effect of training on psychometric PM test scores, strategy use, self-awareness, and level of care. METHODS Assessor and participant-blinded randomized controlled trial with 52 participants (77% male, mean age = 39.0. SD = 13.6) allocated to 3 groups: COMP-MST, COMP, and waitlist control. Interventions were delivered over 6 weekly sessions. Measures were collected pre- and post-intervention and 3-month follow-up. Data were analyzed using unstructured linear mixed-effects modeling for repeated measures and planned contrasts between time-points for each group. RESULTS The models showed no significant differences between the groups on primary or secondary outcome measures. Significant pre-post intervention improvements were found for significant other's ratings of everyday PM failure for both intervention groups but not the control group, with medium to large effect sizes. Clinically relevant improvements on primary outcomes were found for participants across all 3 groups. CONCLUSIONS This study found no significant benefits of combining MST with COMP for improving everyday PM and psychosocial integration.

Abstract
Rehabilitation of cognitive and psychosocial deficits resulting from traumatic brain injury (TBI) continues to be an area of concern in health care. Commonly co-occurring psychiatric disorders, such as major depressive disorder and posttraumatic stress disorder, create additional hurdles when attempting to remediate cognitive sequelae. There is increased need for procedures that will yield consistent gains indicative of recovery of function. Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS), a form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, has potential as an instrument that can be tailored to aid cognitive processes and support functional gains. The use of iTBS enables direct stimulation of desired neural systems. iTBS, performed in conjunction with behavioral interventions (e.g., cognitive rehabilitation, psychotherapy), may result in additive success in facilitating cognitive restoration and adaptation. The purpose of this theoretical review is to illustrate how the technical and physiological aspects of iTBS may enhance other forms of neurorehabilitation for individuals with TBI. Future research on combinatorial iTBS interventions has the potential to translate to other complex neuropsychiatric conditions.

Abstract
Unawareness is a significant barrier to cognitive rehabilitation following acquired brain injury. Little is known about online awareness of cognitively-based instrumental activities of daily living (C-IADL) after stroke, particularly C-IADLs that emphasize executive functions. Our goal was to evaluate in stroke patients (1) online awareness during and immediately after a C-IADL task that emphasizes executive functions and (2) the association between awareness and performance on the C-IADL task. Seventy-seven stroke patients on an acute inpatient rehabilitation unit and 77 control participants completed the 10-item Weekly Calendar Planning Activity (WCPA-10), a standardized C-IADL task that requires working memory, planning, shifting, and inhibition. Trained examiners observed the use of a self-checking strategy and self-recognition of errors during the task. Immediately after the task, participants estimated their accuracy, and rated their own performance, which was compared with objective accuracy. Relative to the control group, stroke patients overestimated their accuracy, less often recognized errors, and less frequently used a self-checking strategy. Overestimation was associated with worse overall performance on the WCPA-10. Findings suggest that poor online awareness of C-IADL performance is common in stroke patients undergoing acute inpatient rehabilitation. Increasing awareness through metacognitive interventions should be a core focus of early post-stroke cognitive rehabilitation.

Abstract
The ability to monitor one's behaviour is frequently impaired following TBI, impacting on patients' rehabilitation. Inaccuracies in judgement or self-reflection of one's performance provides a useful marker of metacognition. However, metacognition is rarely measured during routine neuropsychology assessments and how it varies across cognitive domains is unclear. A cohort of participants consisting of 111 TBI patients [mean age = 45.32(14.15), female = 29] and 84 controls [mean age = 31.51(12.27), female = 43] was studied. Participants completed cognitive assessments via a bespoke digital platform on their smartphones. Included in the assessment were a prospective evaluation of memory and attention, and retrospective confidence judgements of task performance. Metacognitive accuracy was calculated from the difference between confidence judgement of task performance and actual performance. Prospective judgment of attention and memory was correlated with task performance in these domains for controls but not patients. TBI patients had lower task performance in processing speed, executive functioning and working memory compared to controls, maintaining high confidence, resulting in overestimation of cognitive performance compared to controls. Additional judgments of task performance complement neuropsychological assessments with little additional time-cost. These results have important theoretical and practical implications for evaluation of metacognitive impairment in TBI patients and neurorehabilitation.

Abstract
Recent advances in second-person neuroscience have allowed the underlying neural mechanisms involved in teaching-learning interactions to be better understood. Teaching is not merely a one-way transfer of information from teacher to student; it is a complex interaction that requires metacognitive and mentalizing skills to understand others’ intentions and integrate information regarding oneself and others. Physiotherapy involving therapists instructing patients on how to improve their motor skills is a clinical field in which teaching-learning interactions play a central role. Accumulating evidence suggests that non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) modulates cognitive functions; however, NIBS approaches to teaching-learning interactions are yet to be utilized in rehabilitation. In this review, I evaluate the present research into NIBS and its role in enhancing metacognitive and mentalizing abilities; I then review hyperscanning studies of teaching-learning interactions and explore the potential clinical applications of NIBS in rehabilitation. Dual-brain stimulation using NIBS has been developed based on findings of brain-to-brain synchrony in hyperscanning studies, and it is delivered simultaneously to two individuals to increase inter-brain synchronized oscillations at the stimulated frequency. Artificial induction of brain-to-brain synchrony has the potential to promote instruction-based learning. The brain-to-brain interface, which induces inter-brain synchronization by adjusting the patient’s brain activity, using NIBS, to the therapist’s brain activity, could have a positive effect on both therapist-patient interactions and rehabilitation outcomes. NIBS based on second-person neuroscience has the potential to serve as a useful addition to the current neuroscientific methods used in complementary interventions for rehabilitation.

Abstract
Purpose Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) have many available procedural options when setting treatment goals. Extant literature supports goal setting protocols that include and value the perspectives of the client; however, in practice, rehabilitation professionals may lean toward expert models of care when planning treatment. Our purpose is to describe a newly developed approach for SLPs and individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) to work together to build meaningful, relevant goals. Method We utilized a multiple case study format to exemplify goal setting procedures. Specifically, we describe procedures and outcomes for a 29-year-old female 28 days postinjury and a 70-year-old male 9 months postinjury. Results Clients who engaged in this protocol worked collaboratively with a clinician to identify strengths and challenges postinjury, select and prioritize goal areas, and discuss and develop meaningful, personalized treatment activities. For both participants, use of the proposed protocol resulted in meaningful goals that addressed their self-reported deficits as well as their respective cognitive-linguistic deficits noted on objective, standardized measures. Conclusions Clinician and client collaboration during treatment goal development can facilitate increased client motivation and functional outcomes. The described approach is feasible from a clinical resource standpoint and promotes a systematic approach to placing the client at the forefront of clinical decision making to enhance therapeutic gains. Such client-centered approaches may be particularly valuable for individuals with mTBI who experience substantial cognitive and communicative challenges but may maintain high levels of self-awareness postinjury.

Abstract
Background Metacognitive knowledge (MK; general awareness of cognitive functioning) and metacognitive experience (ME; awareness of cognitive performance on a specific cognitive task) represent two facets of metacognition that are critical for daily functioning, but are understudied in bipolar disorder. This study was conducted to evaluate MK and ME across multiple cognitive domains in individuals diagnosed with bipolar disorder and unaffected volunteers, and to investigate the association between metacognition and quality of life (QoL). Methods Fifty-seven euthymic participants with bipolar disorder and 55 demographically similar unaffected volunteers provided prediction and postdiction ratings of cognitive task performance across multiple cognitive domains. Self-ratings were compared to objective task performance, and indices of MK and ME accuracy were generated and compared between groups. Participants rated QoL on the Quality of Life in Bipolar Disorder Scale (QoL.BD). Results Metacognitive inaccuracies in both MK and ME were observed in participants with bipolar disorder, but only in select cognitive domains. Furthermore, most metacognitive inaccuracies involved underestimation of cognitive ability. Metacognitive indices were minimally associated with medication variables and mood symptoms, but several indices were related to QoL. Conclusions Individuals with bipolar disorder demonstrate inaccuracies in rating their cognitive functioning and in rating their online cognitive task performance, but only on select cognitive functions. The tendency to underestimate performance may reflect a negative information processing bias characteristic of mood disorders. Metacognitive variables were also predictive of QoL, indicating that further understanding of cognitive self-appraisals in persons with bipolar disorder has significant clinical relevance.
