|a Few studies have investigated a relationship between proper soccer heading technique and previous head injury. Results from this study could be used to help soccer organizations determine an improved strategy to confront the problem of head injuries in soccer. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between heading technique and neuropsychological skills. Twelve competitive male and female soccer players from one NCAA Division II soccer team volunteered to participate in this study. Soccer heading technique was measured using seven high-speed cameras. ImPACT software was used to measure neuropsychological skills. A Pearson product correlation was calculated to determine a relationship between soccer heading technique and neuropsychological test scores with a p < 0.05 to determine statistical significance. Visual memory composite scores showed a significant negative correlation (p < .05) with linear head acceleration. In addition, a strong negative correlation (p < .05) was found between hip and trunk range of motion, while a strong positive correlation (p < .05) was found between linear head acceleration and angular neck acceleration. The findings show that better technique does not have a relationship with lower neuropsychological scores, and the need to further investigate electromyography muscle activity during a soccer header and its effects on neuropsychological skills. |
