abstract="PURPOSE: To determine the contributions of anxiety, depressive, and concussion  symptoms and sleep quality to self-perceived recovery in adolescents with  concussion. <br><br>METHOD: Adolescents aged 12-20 (n = 298) completed anxiety, depression,  concussion symptoms, and sleep measures at an initial concussion clinic visit and  three-month follow-up. At follow-up, they reported self-perceived recovery as  percent back to normal. <br><br>RESULTS: Injury-related factors alone did not predict  self-perceived recovery (R(2) (Adj) =.017, p =.074). More concurrent physical,  mental health, and sleep symptoms explained 18.8% additional variance in poorer  self-perceived recovery (R(2) (Adj) Change =.188, p <.05). Physical symptoms  (B(stand) = -.292) and anxiety (B(stand) = -.260) accounted for the most variance in  self-perceived recovery. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Post-concussive symptoms, in particular anxiety  and self-reported physical symptoms, seem to characterize protracted recovery. Self-perceived recovery as an outcome measure may provide a more holistic  understanding of adolescents' experiences after concussion.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
