Abstract

A modified version of the Life Experiences Survey (LES) was used to examine the relationship between positive and negative life change and subsequent athletic injury among 104 collegiate varsity football players drawn from two teams. The findings from Team One indicated that players who incurred a significant time-loss injury had experienced greater negative--but not positive--life changes in the previous twelve months than noninjured players. Further, injured players tended to have higher object loss scores than noninjured players. No between-group differences were found for Team Two. Trait anxiety, competitive trait anxiety, and locus of control were examined as possible moderator variables in the life change--injury relationship, and were found to have no significant effects. While partially supporting past research, the findings indicate that more work on the stress--injury relationship is needed before life change measures can contribute to the assessment of athletes' injury potential.

生活压力与运动损伤:积极与消极事件及三个调节变量的检验。
采用改良版的生活经验调查(LES),对来自两个队的104名大学橄榄球运动员进行了积极和消极生活改变与随后的运动损伤之间的关系进行了研究。一队的研究结果表明,在过去的12个月里,遭受严重时间损失伤病的球员比没有受伤的球员经历了更多的消极而不是积极的生活变化。此外,受伤的球员比没有受伤的球员有更高的物体丢失得分。第二组没有发现组间差异。特质焦虑、竞争性特质焦虑和控制点作为生活改变-伤害关系可能的调节变量进行了研究,发现它们没有显著的影响。虽然部分支持过去的研究,但研究结果表明,在生活改变措施有助于评估运动员受伤潜力之前,需要对压力-伤害关系进行更多的研究。
