Abstract. The article examines the clinical and psychological features of the rehabilitation of patients after a brain injury. The study aims to determine individual and general factors affecting rehabilitation effectiveness and develop optimal approaches to psychological support for patients. Goal. The purpose of the study was to thoroughly analyze the clinical and psychological aspects of the rehabilitation of patients after a brain injury to determine the psychological factors affecting the effectiveness and individualization of the recovery process. Scientific novelty. The scientific novelty of the study of clinical and psychological features of rehabilitation after traumatic brain injury consists of a comprehensive approach that combines advanced methods of psychological and medical science with innovative technologies to achieve the most effective recovery of patients. Methods. The study studied the clinical and psychological features of rehabilitation after a brain injury using the MMPI and MoCA tests. A sample consisting of 331 people (n=331) was used for this purpose. The results. The results of the study were aimed at improving rehabilitation programs and developing optimal psychotherapy strategies for patients with traumatic brain injury. According to the MMPI, the following characteristics of the main scales were derived based on the average values of the sample size M=331: L (Lie):; Average (M): 51.04; Standard deviation (SD): 7.64; Minimum (Min.): 35; Maximum (Max.): 65; F (Infrequency):; M: 61.31; SD: 11.82; Min.: 37; Max.: 89; K (Correction):; M: 47.87; SD: 9.28; Min.: 30; Max.: 65; Scales 1-0 (Hs, D, Hy, Pd, Mo, Pa, Pt, Sc, Mb, Si):; M: From 52.75 to 69.66; SD: From 11.37 to 15.50; Min.: From 24 to 123; Max.: From 86 to 114. An analysis of the MoCA test and morphometric characteristics of the brain (according to CT data) was carried out in 331 patients with the consequences of TBI. 26.3% of patients were diagnosed with moderate and 42.7% with mild cognitive decline. Conclusions. The results of this study will help to solve practical tasks in the field of clinical psychology and rehabilitation, contributing to the further improvement of rehabilitation programs and psychotherapeutic approaches for patients with traumatic brain injury.
