Document Summary
The rationale for doing this particular study was to investigate and determine if short term psychological intervention in athletes would aid in speeding up rehabilitation and recovery in long-term injured athletes. The study was carried out as a 2-arm randomized trial. Questionnaires were conducted pre- treatment, midway through treatment and post-treatment. It was done this way to observe and collect data on the athletes mental state before the study started, their mood at the midpoint of the study and their mood and feelings before the individuals anticipated return to competition. Questionnaire data was collected using several different tests, those tests being the q-prsi (questionnaire-psychosocial risk factors and sport injury), the mood adjective checklist (macl), the diagnostic checklist 1 (dcl:l), and the patient"s self-rating questionnaire (psq). All of the tests were used pretreatment, only the macl for the midpoint tests, and for the post- treatment survey the psq, dcl:2 (diagnostic checklist 2) and macl were utilized.
