Abstract

Our research employs neuropsychological batteries, self-report surveys, and electroencephalography to assess the effects of concussions. Comparative data analysis between concussed and non-concussed individuals demonstrates mild, but significant patterns of executive control deficits. These deficits are correlated with electroencephalographic patterns, serving as a marker for the long-term effects of concussions.
