Participants will complete assessments including the Montreal Cognitive Assessment and IADL scale to evaluate cognitive status.
This cross-sectional study will recruit approximately 360 participants to explore potential correlations with cognitive function.
Findings may enable better understanding of cognitive health risks in former athletes with no history of concussions.
