Abstract

Significant improvement by 9 months was noted in only 1 of the 4 OAI-23 domains (anger). This outcome highlights the time required for the adjustment process. Younger age and non-CALD background were both shown to be advantageous. The finding regarding involvement in peer support is encouraging. Further study about peer support as an assistive factor should be pursued.
