Results indicated that the LCAS improved significantly in the intervention group in the whole study period(P<0.001). Especially, at each measurement time, the intervention group had better performances in the life change adaptation than control group.

Participants were families of individuals with ABI of associations for families of individuals with ABI in Japan.
All the 82 associations for families of individuals with ABI in Japan invited in this study. Though, we excluded any association with fewer than 15 members (6 clusters) or unspecified members (43 clusters). Of the 18 eligible associations, studies conducted in 16 randomly selected associations were performed based on anticipation following: the required cluster size was 8 associations for each group.Before randomization assigned to two groups, a stratified randomization was adopted to reduce an unequal number of individuals which may be assigned to each arm of the study and performed based on the median cluster size 45 in eligible cluster. Then potential participants were randomly assigned to two groups (ratio=1:1): 8 associations in the intervention group (n= 120) and 8 associations in the control group (n=120). The associations mailed potential participants sequential invitation to express an interest in joining the study, of which 50 in each group expressed their participation in the study.
A total of 62 participants completed the study (retention rate: 25.8%): 9 participants withdrew by the three days interval (intervention group n = 9; control group n = 0) and 24 participants withdrew by the end of the month interval (intervention group n = 10; control group n = 14).
N/A
Primary outcome: The Life change adaptation scale (LCAS) was used to measure the life change adaptation.
Secondary outcome: The Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS) Japanese version to measure perceived social support.
The Positive Appraisal of Care scale (PAC) to measure positive appraisal of care.
