Injury Rehabilitation Flashcards
What 2 factors can cause a sport related injury?
- Physical dysfunction e.g. muscle imbalance, collisions and overtraining
- Psychological issues e.g. high levels of stress, poor coping strategies
Draw the model of stress and athletic injury and who is it by?

Anderson and williams (1988)
What are the 3 history of stressors?
- life events
- daily hassles
- previous injuries
What are the 3 personality affects that cause injury?
- anxiety
- mood states
- agression/anger
What was the aim of William et al. 1991 study on “the relationship between stress and injury - reduces peripheral attention”
To examine the effects of life events, daily hassles (DH), and coping resources (CR) on state anxiety and peripheral vision narrowing.
What was the methods of William et al. 1991 study on “the relationship between stress and injury - reduces peripheral attention”
- Recreational athletes (n=74)
- completed questionnaires to assess life events, daily hassles, state-trait anxiety
also completed a peripheral vision test (in the form of a stroop test
What was the results of William et al. 1991 study on “the relationship between stress and injury - reduces peripheral attention”
- High levels of state anxiety and stress results in reduced peripheral vision and therefore attentional disruption.
What was the aim of Smith et al. 2000 study on the “relationship between stress and injury (interferes with coordination)”?
To assess the relationship between anxiety as a moderator of the stress-injury relation.
What was the methods of Smith et al. 2000 study on the “relationship between stress and injury (interferes with coordination)”?
Ballet dancers (n=46) completed the multidimensional sport anxiety scale and injury occurrence was monitored over an 8 month period.
What was the results of Smith et al. 2000 study on the “relationship between stress and injury (interferes with coordination)”?
High levels of anxiety resulted in higher levels of injury – increased muscle tension and interference with coordination.
What was the aim of Maddison and Prapavessis 2005 study on “intervention to prevent injury - stress management”
To examine the role psychological factors play on the prevention of sport injuries.
What was the methods of Maddison and Prapavessis 2005 study on “intervention to prevent injury - stress management”
- Participants (rugby players) were randomly assigned to a Cognitive Behavioural Stress Management (CBSM) or control group.
- Measurements of number of injuries and time missed were taken at the beginning and end of the season.
What was the results of Maddison and Prapavessis 2005 study on “intervention to prevent injury - stress management”
- Results showed that those in the intervention condition reported missing less time due to injury compared to the control group.
- That stress management pre-season is viable to implement.
What was the aim of Kerr an Goss. 1996 study on “intervention to prevent injury - stress management”?
To examine the effect of a longitudinal stress management program on sport injuries.
What was the methods of Kerr an Goss. 1996 study on “intervention to prevent injury - stress management”?
- Gymnasts (n=24) were split into an experimental group and a control group.
- The experimental group entered a stress management program. Incidence of injury was tracked over an 8 month period.
What was the results of Kerr an Goss. 1996 study on “intervention to prevent injury - stress management”?
- Intervention prevention program significantly lowered the number of injuries in the treatment group compared with the control group.
