Is the Rosenbaum Concussion Knowledge and Attitudes Survey (RoCKAS) a valid and reliable measure to assess knowledge and attitudes toward concussion in collegiate student-athletes?
The Concussion Knowledge Index is a valid measure for collegiate athletes, but the Concussion Attitude Index requires revision due to poor model fit.
Chapman et al. (2017) conducted a cross-sectional in Concussion knowledge and attitudes (n=433). Rosenbaum Concussion Knowledge and Attitudes Survey (RoCKAS) was evaluated on Validity and reliability of the Rosenbaum Concussion Knowledge and Attitudes Survey. The Concussion Knowledge Index of the RoCKAS is a valid and reliable measure in collegiate student-athletes, whereas the Concussion Attitude Index showed poor model fit and improper correlations.
