Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the neurocognitive ability and the risk factors of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries during landing in female recreational athletes. Thirty-two female athletes participated in computerized neurocognition test and motion analysis for drop vertical jump. Pearson's linear correlation analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between the raw scores of neurocognition test and biomechanical variables including 3D joint angle, moment, power, vertical ground reaction force, loading rate, and support time. There were correlations between the scores of neurocognition test and biomechanical variables as high the neurocognition score, it also increase landing strategies were used to maintain posture of the lower extremity. Therefore, the neurocognitive test might be used as a good screening method to detect the risk factors before injury.

본 연구의 목적은 여성선수의 신경인지능력이 양발 착지 시 비접촉성 전방십자인대 손상의 위험요인과 어떠한 관계가 있는지 규명하는 것이다. 여성선수 32명을 대상으로 신경인지검사와 양발 착지에 대한 동작분석을 실시하였다. 전산화된 신경인지 검사의 원점수와 동작분석을 통해 산출된 3차원 관절각, 모멘트, 파워, 수직지면반력, 부하율, 지지시간의 상관관계 분석을 위해 피어슨의 정률상관분석을 실시하였다. 연구결과 신경인지 점수가 높을수록 착지 시 자세유지를 위한 전략을 사용하는 것이 관찰되었다. 따라서 신경인지 검사는 잠재적인 전방십자인대 손상의 위험인자를 검출하기 위한 스크리닝 방법으로 사용 될 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.
