TY - JOUR PY - 1975// TI - Psychosocial factors in athletic injuries: development and application of the social and athletic readjustment rating scale (SARRS) JO - Journal of human stress A1 - Bramwell, S. T. A1 - Masuda, M. A1 - Wagner, N. N. A1 - Holmes, T. H. SP - 6 EP - 20 VL - 1 IS - 2 N2 - The possible role of psychosocial factors in athletics, namely football injuries, is examined. Initially Holmes and Rahe's Social Readjustment Rating Scale (SRRS) was modified to the Social and Athletic Readjustment Scale (SARRS). Additions to the scale and differences in football players from the general population are discussed. Life change scores over one- and two-year intervals were obtained for college varsity football players. Players suffering major time loss injuries had significantly higher predictive scores than noninjured players. Keywords: American football;
