Digit Span Forward is a brief, standardized subtest used to assess attention and short-term verbal memory. It requires the patient to repeat a sequence of numbers in the same order as presented by the examiner, with increasing length. The task evaluates auditory attention, immediate recall, and working memory span. Higher scores indicate better performance. In the study, it is used to investigate the relationship between premorbid personality traits and specific cognitive functions, particularly attentional capacity.

Corsi Span Forward is a brief, standardized visuospatial memory task used to assess short-term visuospatial memory and attention. During the task, the examiner taps a sequence of blocks on a board, and the patient is required to reproduce the same sequence in the same order. The length of the sequence increases progressively. Higher scores indicate better visuospatial short-term memory performance. In the study, it is used to explore the association between premorbid personality traits and the recovery of visuospatial attention and memory functions.

Digit Span Backward is a standardized neuropsychological task that assesses working memory and attention. In this task, the examiner reads aloud a sequence of digits, and the patient is required to repeat them in reverse order. The sequence length increases progressively until the patient can no longer recall the digits correctly. Higher scores reflect better working memory performance. In the study, it is used to investigate the relationship between premorbid personality traits and recovery of working memory and attentional control.

Corsi Span Backward is a standardized visuospatial memory task used to assess working memory and executive functions. In this task, the examiner taps a sequence of blocks on a board, and the patient is required to reproduce the sequence in reverse order. The sequences increase in length until the patient can no longer reproduce them correctly. Higher scores indicate better visuospatial working memory and manipulation abilities. In the study, it is used to examine how premorbid personality traits may influence the recovery of executive and visuospatial memory functions.

The Rey Auditory Verbal Learning Test (RAVLT) is a standardized neuropsychological assessment of verbal learning and memory. The test involves the oral presentation of a list of 15 unrelated words over five learning trials, followed by immediate recall after each trial, an interference list, immediate recall of the original list, and delayed recall after a 20-30-minute interval. A recognition trial is also included. RAVLT. Higher scores indicate better verbal learning and memory abilities. In the study, it is used to assess how premorbid personality may influence short- and long-term verbal memory recovery.

The Rey-Osterrieth Complex Figure Test (ROCFT) and the Taylor Complex Figure Test (TCFT) are standardized neuropsychological tools used to assess visuospatial constructional abilities and non-verbal memory. Participants are asked to copy a complex figure (Rey or Taylor) and then reproduce it from memory after a short delay and again after a longer delay. The TCFT is used as an alternative version to minimize learning effects during repeated assessments. These tests evaluate multiple cognitive processes, including visuoperception, planning, attention, working memory, and long-term visuospatial memory. Higher scores reflect better performance. In the study, they are used to evaluate the influence of premorbid personality traits on visuospatial memory and planning skills in the short and long term.

Evaluates attention and the ability to inhibit automatic responses. The Stroop effect is evaluated by computing a time interference effect (based on execution time) and an error interference effect (based on number of errors).

It measures figural fluency by assessing the ability to initiate mental productivity and self-monitoring during a visual-spatial task. Performance is assessed by scoring the total number of correct and unique designs generated in 3 min (UDs), and the total number of UDs produced into strategies (CSs).

Phonemic Fluency is a brief verbal task assessing executive functions, especially lexical retrieval and cognitive flexibility. Participants must say as many words as possible beginning with a given letter in 60 seconds. Higher scores reflect better executive functioning. In the study, it assesses the potential impact of premorbid personality on verbal recovery.

Semantic Fluency assesses verbal memory and executive functioning. Participants list as many words as possible from a semantic category (e.g., animals) in 60 seconds. Higher scores indicate better cognitive performance. In the study, it evaluates the influence of premorbid personality on language and executive recovery.

The Verbal Reasoning Test evaluates verbal reasoning skills through tasks such as identifying absurdities, intruders, relationships, differences, idiomatic expressions, familiarity, and classifications. Higher scores indicate stronger verbal reasoning. In the study, it assesses how premorbid personality influences verbal reasoning recovery.

Both versions (for patient, for relatives). Self-report tools used to assess psycho-behavioral functioning in individuals with brain injury. It evaluates emotional, behavioral, and social aspects relevant to rehabilitation outcomes. Higher scores indicate greater difficulties. In the study, it is used to explore the impact of premorbid personality on psycho-behavioral recovery.

Is a self-administered questionnaire designed to assess anxiety and depression symptoms in medically ill patients. It consists of 14 items divided equally between anxiety and depression subscales. Higher scores indicate greater symptom severity. In the study, it is used to evaluate the influence of premorbid personality on psychological well-being during recovery.

Is a self-report personality questionnaire assessing six major personality dimensions: Honesty-Humility, Emotionality, Extraversion, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness to Experience. It uses adjective-based items to capture trait levels. Higher scores reflect stronger expression of each trait. In the study, it is used to investigate the role of premorbid personality in cognitive and functional recovery.

Is a standardized tool used to assess the level of disability and functional changes in individuals with brain injury. It evaluates areas such as consciousness, cognitive ability for self-care, dependence on others, and employability. Scores range from no disability to extreme vegetative state, with higher scores indicating greater disability. In the study, it is used to measure functional recovery and independence over time.

Is a questionnaire designed to assess the level of participation in instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs) following brain injury or stroke. It evaluates domestic chores, leisure, social activities, and work-related tasks. Higher scores indicate greater independence and activity participation. In the study, it is used to monitor social participation and functional recovery.

Is a standardized scale used to evaluate motor functioning, balance, sensation, and joint functioning in post-stroke patients. It is widely used to assess recovery of motor impairment, particularly in the upper and lower extremities. Higher scores indicate better motor function. In the study, it is used to measure motor recovery over time.

Is a clinical scale used to assess motor strength in patients with neurological impairments, especially after stroke. It evaluates muscle power in the upper and lower limbs through specific movements. Higher scores indicate greater muscle strength and motor function. In the study, it is used to monitor motor recovery and functional status.

Is a clinical tool used to measure muscle spasticity in patients with neurological conditions such as stroke or brain injury. It assesses resistance during passive soft-tissue stretching and grades spasticity on a scale from 0 (no increase in muscle tone) to 4 (affected part rigid). Higher scores indicate greater spasticity. In the study, it is used to evaluate changes in muscle tone during motor recovery.

Is a clinical scale used to measure a patient's level of independence in performing basic activities of daily living (ADLs), such as feeding, bathing, grooming, dressing, bowel and bladder control, mobility, and stair climbing. Higher scores indicating greater functional independence. In the study, it is used to assess disability levels and functional outcomes during rehabilitation.

Is a clinical tool used to assess the overall level of disability in individuals recovering from severe brain injury, including traumatic and non-traumatic causes. It evaluates a range of functional areas, including consciousness, cognitive ability for self-care, level of dependence, and psychosocial adaptability. Scores range from 0 (no disability) to 29 (extreme vegetative state), with higher scores indicating greater disability. In the study, it is used to monitor functional recovery and global disability over time.
