Rate My Professor Mary Kennedy

Kennedy's research focuses on executive functions and metacognition after brain injury, examining their intersections with memory and language, alongside evidence-based practices through systematic reviews and recommendations for cognitive rehabilitation following traumatic brain injury. She has co-authored influential publications, including the INCOG 2.0 Guidelines for Cognitive Rehabilitation Following Traumatic Brain Injury series in the Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation (2023), covering executive functions, cognitive-communication and social cognition disorders, memory, and future directions. Notable earlier works encompass 'Intervention for executive functions after traumatic brain injury: A systematic review, meta-analysis and clinical recommendations' (2008, Neuropsychological Rehabilitation), 'Evidence-based practice among speech-language pathologists' (2005, American Journal of Speech-Language Pathology), and 'Practice guidelines for direct attention training' (2003, Journal of Medical Speech Language Pathology). In leadership roles, she served as President-Elect of the Academy of Neurologic Communication Disorders and Sciences (2006-2008), Associate Editor of the Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research since 2006, and Chair of the ANCDS Practice Guidelines Writing Committee on Cognitive-Communication After Traumatic Brain Injury since 2001.
