Abstract
The prevalence of Veterans returning from deployment in Iraq and Afghanistan with neurologic disabilities has spurred numerous “gold standard” quantitative studies, RCTs, on community reintegration interventions. We describe a qualitative process to enhance the meaningfulness of quantitative evidence by incorporating the Veteran perspective from study design through execution and forward into program development and implementation.
