Abstract

Neurodevelopmental Disorder in adult population is now drawing attention in Japan, and this tendency needs to be considered in the field of sports. In this study, university athletes answered the questionnaires about ADHD and concussion which were among the most frequently studied in eastern countries. As a result, firstly, 27.9% of participants showed above the cutoff of ADHD. Secondly, regression analysis revealed that ADHD positive, were positively correlated to a concussion experience (β=0.25, p<0.05). Coaches and psychologists need to have knowledge about ADHD from perspectives of prevention and curing concussion. Also, coaches and psychologists need to consider both sports and academic performance for university athletes to recover from concussion.
