- What: We will train unpaid caregivers to use music within the care of adults living with TBI for the purpose of mood and behavioural regulation.
- Who: Dyads consisting of caregivers in the Australian community, and their care recipient (adult living with TBI).
- Length: 8-week study, with brief follow up 4 weeks later.
- Time commitment: Caregivers and care recipients will complete online questionnaires at 3 separate timepoints (these range from 10-45mins for caregivers, and 8-28mins for care recipients). Caregivers will also engage in 1-1.5 hours of initial online training and receive 1 short check-in phone call from the research team per fortnight which will be recorded.
