Higher Education Inservice Training Recreation Sports Management Sports Medicine concussion college students campus residence life campus recreation center head injury traumatic brain injury This study utilized a quasi-experimental survey design to: a) examine the current level of knowledge of and training on concussion among college staff members, b) evaluate the efficacy of a one-hour training program on concussion recognition and management skills, and c) explore the impact of ongoing programming on college staff members' ability to meet the needs of students who sustained a concussion. Participants (N = 263) received the training as well as ongoing resources provided by email during a four to nine month period following the training. Prior and attained knowledge were measured by pre- and post-training questionnaires. A follow-up questionnaire was administered four to nine months post-training to assess if and how participants utilized knowledge gained from training in working directly with students who had sustained a concussion. Results indicated a 7% percent increase in knowledge across participants from the pre- to post-test questionnaire; however, results were not significant. Implications for college student personnel and college students are discussed. 2016-09-08 English text University of Dayton / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=dayton1467890413 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=dayton1467890413 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
