About Caitlin

Dr Caitlin Hamilton serves as a Lecturer in Occupational Therapy in the School of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences at the University of Queensland, within the Faculty of Health and Behavioural Sciences. She holds a Bachelor degree from the University of Queensland and a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Sydney. In her role, she coordinates courses including OCTY3103 and OCTY2210, and is available for higher degree by research supervision. Her professional contributions extend to research themes such as NeuroRehabilitation and Ageing, and Knowledge Translation and Impact.

Hamilton's research specializations encompass cognitive rehabilitation, with a focus on prospective memory rehabilitation for adults with traumatic brain injury incorporating compensatory and metacognitive skills training. Notable publications include the 2022 randomized controlled trial 'Efficacy of prospective memory rehabilitation plus metacognitive skills training for adults with traumatic brain injury' in Neurorehabilitation and Neural Repair; the 2022 observational study 'Improving self-awareness of prospective memory function after TBI using experiential feedback on a board game activity' in Neuropsychological Rehabilitation; and the 2025 study 'Microstructural brain changes following prospective memory rehabilitation in traumatic brain injury' also in Neuropsychological Rehabilitation. She has further explored patient and therapist perspectives on prospective memory rehabilitation in a 2024 Patient Education and Counseling article. Additional research addresses feedback-based technologies for improving mobility, physical activity, and physical function in rehabilitation, featured in publications such as 'Usability of affordable feedback-based technologies to improve mobility and physical activity in rehabilitation: a mixed methods study' (2021, Disability and Rehabilitation), 'Experiences of therapists using feedback-based technology to improve physical function in rehabilitation: a qualitative systematic review' (2019, Disability and Rehabilitation), and 'Patient and therapist experiences of using affordable feedback-based technology in rehabilitation' (2018, Clinical Rehabilitation). Earlier works include evaluations of computerized cognitive training (2015) and clinical utility of the Chedoke Arm and Hand Activity Inventory for stroke rehabilitation (2010). Currently, she contributes to the Capacity Building for Cognitive Rehabilitation Providers in Queensland (CogCap) project, funded by the National Injury Insurance Agency, Queensland, from 2025 to 2028, alongside a 2025 pilot study on evidence-based practice enhancement in JBI Evidence Implementation.
