Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

Rehabilitation Psychology focuses on psychological and social adjustment following injury and chronic illness. Research examines factors influencing recovery, such as resilience, perceived injustice, and positive psychology constructs, particularly in populations with traumatic brain injury (TBI), spinal cord injury (SCI), and chronic pain. The journal also investigates the effectiveness and usability of rehabilitation interventions, including mHealth and web-delivered programs, and explores the experiences of individuals with disabilities, their caregivers, and healthcare providers.
