This study aims to evaluate the potential effects of premorbid personality on the short- and long-term global cognitive recovery in patients with severe acquired brain injury (sABI) or stroke. The secondary aims are to assess the effects of premorbid personality on the sort- and long-term recovery in autonomy (disability), cognitive functions, psycho-behavioral functioning, motor skills, and social participation. Evaluate the incidence of premorbid personality alterations. Investigate personality changes 12-18 months after the neurological event.

Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA)
Timeframe: The test is administered (both stroke and sABI) at baseline-T0 (between 3-30 days from onset - ictus; 7-90 days from onset - sABI), at discharge (at least 30 days from T0) and at followup-T2 (12 moths from onset - ictus; 18 months from onset - sABI).
