Abstract
The King–Devick (K-D) test, a measure of processing speed, visual tracking, and saccadic eye movements, has shown promise as a supplemental screening test following concussion. However, limited normative data for this test have been published. The K-D test was administered to 185 professional ice hockey players as a preseason baseline test in seasons 2012–2013 and 2013–2014. Their average age was 23.8 years (median=22.0 years, range=16–40 years). The average K-D score was 40.0 s (SD=6.1 s, range=24.0–65.7 s). K-D test performance showed no association with age, education, or the number of self-reported previous concussions in this sample. The association between trials 1 and 2 of the K-D test was good (ICC=0.92, Pearson=0.93). Normative values of the K-D test for professional male ice hockey players are reported. K-D test performance did not vary by age, education, or concussion history in this study. Verf.-Referat
