Test-Retest Reliability in DETECT

Test-Retest Psychometrics of a Novel Neuropsychological Assessment Tool: Reliability Measures for DETECT

Healthy volunteers without concussion, currently participating in non-or-limited contact sports teams at Emory University will undergo Display Enhanced Testing for Concussion and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) (DETECT) on three separate days: at baseline, day 50, and day 90. Prior to enrollment participants will be allocated to the test-retest arm or the exercise arm.
