<div>"There is a paucity of research regarding the efficacy of academic accommodations for school-aged children with TBI" (p. iii). While the results of the review favor the use of accommodations for students with TBI in general, the majority of the studies were qualitative and did not provide clear evidence as to which accommodations were effective. Further research is needed regarding the effectiveness of classroom accommodations for this population.</div>
