This project will create understanding of links between acquired brain injury (ABI) and crime. ABI, particularly head injury, puts people at high risk of committing crime and re-offending. The project will investigate the lives of young offenders and effects of any ABI which can lead to problems in handling emotions, anger, acting without thinking. It will also address ABI in adult prisoners and how problems such as poor memory and planning, could be taken into account and help reintegration into society.
