Abstract:
In the current landscape of forensic psychiatric evaluation, the use of objective assessment techniques to gauge the extent of mental disability is a relatively unexplored territory. The development and enhancement of these techniques are at the forefront of our research. Daily life ability is a crucial factor in the forensic evaluation of mental disability. Given the profound influence of prospective memory on an individual′s daily life ability, its assessment could hold significant value in this context. This article presents a comprehensive review of studies on prospective memory assessment and the underlying neurophysiological and psychological mechanisms in patients with traumatic brain injuries. Our aim is to delve deeper into the potential application of prospective memory assessment in the forensic evaluation of mental disability, a novel and promising area of research.
