Abstract
Although news and entertainment coverage of sports concussions has increased in recent years, many parents of adolescent athletes remain indifferent to or unaware of practices that would mitigate concussion harm. This experiment with U.S. parents of 10- to 17-year-olds (N = 502) explores how narratives and expository concussion science could be used together to increase concussion risk assessments, mitigation intentions, and support for sports concussion policy. Direct and indirect relationships through narrative transportation and trust are explored.
