ABSTRACT Objective To examine potential effects of gender on self-reported symptomatology in athletes who did not report a prior concussion history at baseline using ImPACT. Method Participants were selected from an archival de-identified sports medicine ImPACT database. The sample (N = 28,616) consisted of primarily male (58.2%) student athletes in South Florida with a mean age of 15.36 years (SD = 1.332). An exploratory factor analysis performed by Kontos and colleagues (2012) was utilized to categorize ImPACT self-reported symptomatology into four symptom groups: Affective, Sleep, Cognitive, and Vestibular Somatic. An independent samples t-test was conducted to determine the relationship between gender and self-reported symptoms at baseline. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.01. Results The independent samples t-test determined significant differences (p < .001) between gender and self-reported symptomatology regarding cognitive (d = 0.14), affective (d = 0.30), sleep (d = 0.13), and vestibular somatic symptoms (d = 0.17). Descriptive statistics revealed females on average reported more symptoms than males at baseline. Conclusions Findings indicate females are more likely to endorse sleep, emotion, and somatic symptoms in comparison to males at baseline. The results suggest that gender may be a mediating factor in regards to self-reported symptomatology, and should be accounted for when comparing baseline assessments to post-injury. Additionally, these results suggest self-reported symptomatology may be an accurate representation of athlete’s baseline functioning and are not solely related to post injury complications. Going forward, one’s self-reported symptomatology at baseline should be highly considered when clearing athletes for both return to learn and play.

The Relationship

ObjectiveTo examine the relationship between self-reported post concussion headache severity and convergence insufficiency (CI) a common binocular vision deficit, in a clinical post-concussive population.BackgroundBoth headache and CI are common sequelae of concussion that have been associated with prolonged recovery. Independent of head injury, CI is a known predictor of headache pain [1]. However, the relationship between CI and headache in a post-concussion population is less clear. This is an important relationship to explore since headaches are one of the most common and debilitating post-concussive symptoms.Design/MethodsRetrospective databank analysis was conducted of 174 participants between the ages of 13–84 (M = 37 SD = 19) recruited from an interdisciplinary concussion clinic (M = 295 SD = 609 days post-injury). Near point convergence (NPC) and subjective headache severity were obtained by a neurologist during routine clinical visits. Near point convergence was dichotomized: >5 cm being CI, and <5 “normal.” Current headache severity was measured using a self-report pain severity scale ranging from 0 (none) to 10 (most severe). Spearman rank-order correlation was used in order to elucidate the relationship between headache severity and CI.ResultsResults suggest only a weak relationship between post-concussion headache severity and NPC status that failed to reach statistical significance (r = 0.171, p = 0.098). NPC status explained only 3% of the variance in headache severity.ConclusionsThe results of this study suggest that headache and NPC measurements following concussion are very weakly associated. Given the episodic nature of headaches, it may be that statistically significant correlations are not evident unless there is a certain headache severity at time of NPC measurement. Future studies are needed in order to determine whether and to what extent injury severity or patient demographic characteristics mediate this relationship.

There are four types of parenting: democratic, authoritarian, permissive, and ignored, which would affect the character of the child. But family upbringing itself influenced education, norms/cultural, environmental, social, economic and belongs to the family members. quasi-experimental study through questionnaires, observation, deep interview, and interventions against high school Students, Peers, Teachers (BK), and their Parents/Family have been conducted through a random sampling of 108 respondents in four high school set. The result met the test paired T test statistical significance level 0 and T test result of 0.05 shows that the two variables p-value of p=0.00000. Correlation tests showed that there is a relationship between two variables at-0616. This sign (-) means that the test results are negative correlation. Can be seen if the correlation between the two variables is quite high between 0.50 to 1.0 can be concluded that the direction of the relationship between the two variables is negative. These results can be displayed from "if the family provides a strict upbringing will influence behavior in high school brawls in Adolescents will tend to be low and vice versa".

Abstract Objective To examine the relationship between athletes with and without Autism diagnosis and self-reported symptoms as measured by ImPACT. Method Participants were selected from an archival de-identified sports medicine ImPACT database. The sample (N = 232) was primarily male (72.4%) student athletes with a mean age of 15.41 years (SD = 1.292). Participants were divided into two groups: Autism diagnosis (n = 130); No diagnosis (n = 102). An independent samples t-test was conducted to analyze the variation of self-reported symptoms between athletes with and without an Autism diagnosis. Results The independent samples t-test revealed significant differences between diagnostic groups and self-reported cognitive (t = 5.832, p &lt; .001, d = .72); sleep (t = 4.040, p &lt; .001, d = .51); vestibular somatic (t = 4.154, p &lt; .001, d = .53); and affective symptomatology (t = 3.988, p &lt; .001, d = .51). Athletes with a diagnosis of Autism reported more symptoms overall in comparison to athletes without a diagnosis. Conclusions These findings suggest that prior psychological diagnoses play a significant role in symptom scores; however, the degree to which these symptoms can be attributed to the diagnosis itself or the concussion is unknown. It should be noted that individuals who have been diagnosed with Autism may already be at an increased risk of sleep difficulties, emotional regulation, and sensory stimulation within the environment. Therefore, differentiating the symptom scores from preexisting symptoms of Autism from a concussion can be beneficial when helping athletes return to play.

The Relationship

This paper investigated whether the lack of social connectedness, as measured by the subjective feeling of loneliness, mediates the well-known relationship between interpersonal stress and psychological distress. Furthermore, a relationship between interpersonal stress and somatic symptoms was hypothesized. The study sample included 3,268 women and 3,220 men in Western Norway. The main findings were that interpersonal stress was significantly related to psychological distress as well as to somatic symptoms, both directly and indirectly via paths mediated by loneliness. The size of the indirect effects varied, suggesting that the importance of loneliness as a possible mediator differs for depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms, and somatic symptoms. In the case of depressive symptoms, more than 75% of the total effect was mediated through loneliness, while in the case of somatic symptoms just over 40% of the total effect was mediated through loneliness. This study supports the hypotheses that social connectedness mediates a relationship between interpersonal stress and psychological distress. The study also provides the first link between interpersonal stress, as measured by the Bergen Social Relationships Scale, and somatic symptoms, extending earlier research on the relationship between interpersonal stress and psychological distress.

This study examines the influence of receivables on liquidity at PT. Graha Tumarima. Sukabumi City for 5 years, with a sampling technique using a purposive sample in the form of financial statement data from 2010 to 2014 using a table of trade receivables and company liquidity. In this study, researchers refer to the theory of Bambang Riyanto (2008: 94) as the connecting theory of the title. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship and influence between receivables and liquidity at PT. Graha Tumarima. The research design uses the method of exposing the facto, the method of data collection aims to test the hypothesis by using correlation analysis, determination, regression and hypothesis testing with t-test. The results of this study show the influence of receivables on liquidity is shown by the value of r = 0.888, meaning that receivables have a very strong relationship to liquidity. The nature of the relationship is positive, meaning that if the value of cooperative credit is higher the liquidity will be higher. Conversely, if the value of receivables decreases, liquidity will decrease. The magnitude of the influence of receivables on liquidity is shown by the value of R Square / Determination Coefficient of 0.789 or 78.9% thus the receivables have an effect of 78.9% on cooperative liquidity. Hypothesis testing uses the t test, that t arithmetic = 3.347 while t table = 3.182 means t arithmetic&gt; t table. Means that Ho is rejected and Ha is accepted. There is an influence between the receivables on liquidity at PT. Graha Tumarima, Sukabumi City

The Relationship

The relevance of the article is determined by the existence of contradictions between the need to introduce innovative technologies into the educational process at school, as an integral attribute of modern education, and the negative influence of factors on the physical and psycho-emotional state of health of students related to the use of information and communication tools (computers, phones, headphones). The goal of the study was to assess the relationship between the timing of the use of information and communication tools and the frequency of functional and psycho-emotional complaints in groups of middle and high school schoolchildren. 400 schoolchildren of the Saratov Region, the Moscow Region, Leningrad Region and the Republic of Dagestan were surveyed, who made up two groups of research: middle-school schoolchildren (grades 5–6) and high-school schoolchildren (grades 10–11 The survey was carried out by means of the standardized formalized cards which included the questions considering usage time of computers and mobile phones, complaints to a headache, hands pain, other pain and/or feeling of discomfort from visual organ and the organs of hearing, as well as a psycho-emotional state. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the STATISTICA application software program by StatSoft Inc (USA). To compare the frequencies of a binary feature, a fourfold table of absolute frequencies was constructed and the level of statistical significance for the exact Fisher’s two-tailed test criterion was determined. The study was conducted according to the requirements of bioethics, after signing informed consent statement by teenagers and their parents. The study examined the relationship between the timing of the use of information and communication tools and the frequency of complaints in groups of schoolchildren. The results of the study should be taken into account when developing and implementing preventive measures to prevent negative effects of computers and mobile devices on the body of students.
