Effects of head trauma frequency and intensity on the neuropsychological functioning and symptoms of high school football players in different positions
Football athletes who play in positions that incur high frequency but low intensity head impacts, such as linemen, perform similarly on neurocognitive tests as players who sustain low frequency but high intensity head impacts, such as wide receivers, defensive backs, quarterbacks, and cornerbacks.
