METHODS Randomized trial, with participants assigned to treatment (Brain Injury Partners CD-ROM) or control (alternate CD-ROM) conditions. METHODS Knowledge; skill application; and attitude, behavioral intention, and self-efficacy to use key advocacy skills. METHODS Thirty-one parents of children with TBI. RESULTS The Brain Injury Partners group reported higher postintervention adjusted means for application, knowledge, and attitudes scale scores than did the control group. CONCLUSIONS The results demonstrate the utility of a computer-delivered intervention for training parents in key skills for communicating with school personnel.
