Comparing perceptions of chronic traumatic encephalopathy ( <scp>CTE</scp> ) across health care disciplines

Surveyed neuropsychologists, physicians, and rehabilitation providers have significantly different views of CTE and its research base. CTE knowledge source and inaccurate belief regarding the chronic cognitive effects of a single, uncomplicated concussion partially explain differences in CTE perspectives across professions. More research is needed regarding CTE knowledge and practices for discussing CTE with patients who have such concerns.
