Neurocognitive challenged hops reduced functional performance relative to traditional hop testing

Determine the relationship between four foundational single-leg hop tests and respective neurocognitive single-leg hop tests. Cross-sectional; University gymnasium.

Description
Summary:Determine the relationship between four foundational single-leg hop tests and respective neurocognitive single-leg hop tests. Cross-sectional; University gymnasium. Twenty-two participants (9 Male, 13 Female, 20.9 ± 2.5 years, 171.2 ± 11.7 cm, 70.3 ± 11.0 kg) were recruited. Maximum distance was measured for three hop tests (single-leg hop, single-leg crossover hop, single-leg triple hop) and fastest time was measured for the fourth (single-leg 6-m hop) for traditional and neurocognitive conditions. Pearson correlations were conducted to assess the relationship between the new neurocognitive hop and the analogous traditional hop. One repeated measures MANOVA was conducted for each leg to determine the difference in hop performance between hop conditions (traditional and neurocognitive) for the dependent variables. Alpha level was set at α
