About this book

Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Psychology - Developmental Psychology, grade: A, Kenyatta University, language: English, abstract: Brain trauma can occur at any stage of a person's life. Among learners, there are several events in their day to day activities, including concussion, maltreatment, physical activities, and toxic stress that may result in brain trauma. Traumatic brain injury may involve a violent blow or jolt on the head. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can also be caused by an object that is able to penetrate brain tissue. Concussion and other traumatic experiences profoundly limit brain development among children thus hampering their cognitive functions. The growing volume of the literature suggests that concussion adversely impacts various aspects of lives, including home, school, and social relationships among children and adolescents. According to a 2013 clinical report of the American Academy of Pediatrics, there are potential vulnerabilities to academic functioning following concussion. Multiple qualitative studies indicated that children may suffer from several post-concussion symptoms, such as headaches, fatigue, slowed processing of information and impaired concentration, which negatively impact academic performance.
