Abstract

<p>  Higher brain dysfunction due to brain injury is thought to reduce cognitive ability as well as decisionmaking ability. Decision-making ability is defined as being able to convey oneʼs intentions, understanding relevant information, and having a rational reason for selection, and includes medical consent ability and judgment ability. However, there is no index for quantitatively and objectively measuring decision-making ability, and it has not reached the formulation of decision-making. Supporter skills such as consensus building by multiple occupations and devising questioning methods will be required.<br>  This paper outlines the points in each position regarding decision-making support of medical and welfare for peoples with higher brain dysfunction, and introduces some of the research conducted so far.</p>
