Other | Psychosocial Battery - Mindfulness and Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) | Self reported items assessing experience with meditation. Participants rate 15 items on a scale from 1-6 (1=almost always; 6=almost never) yielding a mean score across the 15 items, with higher scores indicating greater mindfulness. | Assessed at baseline and 1-month follow-up | |
Other | Psychosocial Battery - Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HAD Scale) | Self reported items assessing anxiety and depression. Participants rate 14 items on a scale from 0-3 (0=not at all; 1=from time to time, occasionally; 2=a lot of the time; 3=most of the time) yielding a total score from 0-21. Three subscale scores are computed (non cases 0-7; doubtful cases 8-10; definite cases 11-21). | Assessed at baseline and at 1-month follow-up | |
Other | Cognitive Self-Efficacy - Metamemory Questionnaire (MMQ) | Self reported items assessing emotions and perceptions about current memory abilty. Participants rate 57 items on a 5-point scale (0=strongly agree/all the time; 1=agree/often; 2=undecided/sometimes; 3=disagree/rarely; 4=strongly disagree/never), yielding three subscales (contentment, ability, and strategies). Scores are added with higher scores indicating greater contentment, ability, or strategy. | Assessed at baseline and at 1-month follow-up | |
Other | Psychosocial Battery - Perceived Mental Fatigue (PMF) | Self-reported items assessing fatigue. Participants rate their present moment feelings on a scale from 1 - 5 (1=not true at all, 5=very true) yielding a mean score across all 7 items, with higher scores indicating greater mental fatigue. | Assessed at baseline, intra-session, and 1-month follow-up | |
Primary | The Rivermead Post Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire | Self reported symptoms following a head injury. Each of the 16 symptom items (e.g., sleep disturbance) is scored 0-4 (0=not experienced at all; 1=no more of a problem; 2=a mild problem; 3=a moderate problem; 4=a severe problem), yielding a total between 0 and 64. We are targeting change in total symptoms but because of the problems with "change scores" our operational definition of successful change in the primary outcome will be the time 2 total score (1-month follow-up) regressed on group while statistically adjusting for baseline score. | Assessed at baseline and at 1-month follow-up | |
Secondary | NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery - Working Memory | List Sorting Working Memory. Participant recalls and sequences different visually and orally presented stimuli. Pictures of different foods and animals are displayed (maximum of 7 at one time) with both an accompanying audio recording and written text that name the item. Participants are asked to say the items back to the examiner in size order from smallest to largest. This test produces a standardized memory accuracy score. | Assessed at baseline and at 1-month follow-up | |
Secondary | NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery - Attention | Flanker Inhibitory Control and Attention. Participant focuses on a given stimulus while inhibiting attention to stimuli flanking it. Participants see a row of 5 arrows and choose the button that matches the direction the middle arrow is pointing. This test contains 20 items yielding a standardized accuracy and processing speed score. | Assessed at baseline and at 1-month follow-up |
