ImPACT® Test Section 2:
Current Concussion Symptoms and Conditions
This section of the ImPACT test asks questions about the athlete's most recent concussion date, hours slept last night, and current medications. Then the athlete is to rate the current severity of 22 concussion symptoms via a 7-point Likert scale.
This Likert scale is currently utilized by the NFL and NHL and has been endorsed by the the Vienna Concussion in Sports (CIS) group.
The concussion symptom scores are displayed in the ImPACT test report along with the symptom total score.
