Abstract

Symptoms of anxiety and mood disruption are common <i>at baseline</i> among college student athletes. These students are at higher risk for symptomatology following injury, representing a screening cohort that may benefit from early counselling. Almost all student athletes will experience symptoms of anxiety and/or mood disruption following concussion.
