摘要

20世纪70年代后,严重的足球伤害和死亡人数的下降使另一个问题成为人们关注的焦点:对球员大脑的创伤,即使没有导致死亡或灾难性的伤害,也可能构成严重的医疗问题。在20世纪90年代初,美国国家橄榄球联盟(NFL)发现自己在一系列知名运动员头部受伤后受到了密切关注。作为回应,联盟成立了一个轻度创伤性脑损伤委员会,不仅将NFL球员脑震荡的严重程度降至最低,而且还影响了青少年足球水平对风险的认知。然而,在2000年代末,有几个因素导致了各级足球运动中与足球相关的脑损伤成为全国辩论的话题。其中包括已故NFL球员的尸检结果,退役运动员公开谈论他们的医疗问题,广泛的媒体报道,以及橄榄球相关的脑损伤作为一种被NFL掩盖的公共健康问题的新框架。

This Is Your Brain on Football
A decline in severe football injuries and fatalities after the 1970s helped make it possible for another concern to come into focus: that trauma to players’ brains, even if it did not result in death or catastrophic injury, might still constitute a serious medical problem. In the early 1990s, the National Football League (NFL) found itself under scrutiny after a spate of high-profile head injuries among its prominent athletes. In response, the league formed a committee on mild traumatic brain injury that not only minimized the severity of concussions among NFL players, but also influenced perceptions of risk at the youth football level. Yet in the late 2000s, several factors contributed to making football-related brain injuries at all levels of the sport a topic of national debate. These included autopsy findings in deceased NFL players, retired athletes speaking out about their medical problems, extensive media coverage, and an emerging framing of football-related brain damage as a public health concern that had been covered up by the NFL.
