| dc.description.abstract | This study examines the "Big 5" personality traits, and experiences with head injury and football among university athletes. 44 football players completed a survey assessing "higher" or "lower" attitudes toward concussions reflecting self-preservation or rushing return to play, respectively. Though not significant, a trend between high levels of conscientiousness combined with low levels of neuroticism relating to a "rushing to return to play" attitude toward concussion was revealed. | |
