Inversion and external rotation D. Pronation and external rotation According to Majerske et al., in general, athletes with higher exertion scores (AIS=4) performed more poorly than athletes with low exertion scores (AIS<3) on which tests? A. Reaction time B. Visual memory C. Visual motor speed D. A and B Majerske et al. found that female athletes who sustained traumatic brain injuries performed more poorly than males on which tests? A. Visual memory B. Verbal memory C. Reaction time D. All of the above Strategic questions primarily target low-level cognitive skills and do not build upon base knowledge for understanding complex concepts. A. True B. False In order to develop clinical proficiency, athletic training students must acquire: A. Technical athletic training knowledge B. Clinical reasoning skills C. A and B

2 Which of the following was the most important finding reported by Distefano et al.? A. Prophylactic ankle bracing effectively limited sagittal-plane ankle motion; however, vertical ground reaction forces were not affected. B. Prophylactic ankle bracing did not limit sagittal-plane ankle motion and caused an increase in vertical ground reaction forces. C. Prophylactic ankle bracing effectively limited sagittal-plane knee motion; however, vertical ground reaction forces were not affected. D. Prophylactic ankle bracing did not limit sagittal-plane knee motion and caused an increase in vertical ground reaction forces. According to DiStefano et al., what was the effect of wearing an ankle brace on sagittal-plane knee kinematics? A. Increased knee flexion displacement B. Increased maximum knee flexion angle C. Increased knee flexion angle at initial contact D. All of the above Henning et al. reported that role strain appeared to be inevitable in collegiate athletic trainers who serve as Approved Clinical Instructors. A. True B. False According to Henning et al., which of the following factors is reported to contribute to role strain in collegiate athletic trainers who serve as Approved Clinical Instructors? A. Lack of on-the-job Approved Clinical Instructor training B. Differences in educational backgrounds C. Number of hours worked per week D. Number and academic level of students being supervised E. A and D What was the objective of Flanagan et al. s study? A. To determine if individuals rehabilitated after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were left with residual deficits in performance after their rehabilitation programs B. To determine if individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions could jump higher than people who had not had an anterior cruciate ligament injury C. To determine if individuals with anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions would reinjure their knees playing rugby D. To determine if individuals who were going to tear their anterior cruciate ligaments were weaker than people who would not tear their anterior cruciate ligaments. What did Flanagan et al. conclude about the performance of the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction group on the functional performance tests? A. The group performed much worse than the healthy control group on functional performance tests.

3 B. The group performed the functional performance tests on the involved (surgically reconstructed) leg the same as they did on the uninvolved leg (ie, they had good leg symmetry). C. The group performed the functional performance tests on the involved leg much worse than they did on the uninvolved leg (ie, they had poor leg symmetry). D. The group jumped higher during the functional performance tests than the control group. What did Hamson-Utley et al. hypothesize about the attitudes of athletic trainers (ATs) and physical therapists (PTs) toward mental imagery? A. ATs would have a more negative attitude toward the use of mental imagery than PTs. B. ATs and PTs would have the same negative attitudes toward the use of mental imagery. C. ATs would have a more positive attitude toward the use of mental imagery than PTs. D. Neither ATs or PTs would know what mental imagery was. Hamson-Utley et al. asked the survey respondents athletic trainers (ATs) and physical therapists (PTs) about their formal education in psychological skills. What did they find? A. All ATs and PTs had formal education in psychological skills. B. ATs and PTs who had formal education in psychological skills had more negative attitudes toward the use of those skills in rehabilitation. C. Everyone had the same attitude toward psychological skills, regardless of their training or education. D. ATs and PTs who had formal education in psychological skills had more positive attitudes toward the use of those skills in rehabilitation. According to Maurer-Starks et al., which of the following is/are true of homonegativity? A. Homonegativity is a more inclusive term that describes purposeful, not irrational, negative attitudes and behaviors toward nonheterosexuals. B. Homonegativity is learned and incorporates the social context in which negative, prejudicial or discriminatory attitudes and/or behaviors toward nonheterosexuals are developed and maintained. C. Homonegativity can stigmatize individuals who are heterosexual and do not fit appropriately within a particular gender role. D. All of the above are true statements pertaining to homonegativity. According to Maurer-Starks et al., which of the following is not part of a 3-step approach to address slurs and anti-gay language in academic institutions? A. Athletic trainers in charge must acknowledge to others that they are hearing the language and must make their presence known to the target audience. B. Athletic trainers must find ways to educate athletic training students and studentathletes about the meaning and weight of their words particularly because the word gay is often used as a synonym for bad or weird.

4 C. Athletic trainers should allow their students and athletes to discuss these issues without intervention. D. Athletic trainers must be willing to dialogue with athletic training students and student-athletes on topics related to the use of hate language or the gay-rights struggle. According to Craig, which of the following is not a proposed risk factor associated with medial tibial stress syndrome? A. Foot pronation B. Increased plantar flexor strength C. An abrupt increase in training intensity D. Flat running surfaces Which method of preventing medial tibial stress syndrome did Craig cite as showing the most promise in the literature? A. Pronation control insoles B. Shock-absorbent insoles C. Graduated running programs D. Static stretching According to Curtis et al., what was the incidence (/1000 exposures) of ankle sprains in athletes wearing cushioned column shoes? A B C D What did Curtis et al. conclude with regard to ankle sprains and the type of shoe worn? A. Traditional shoes had a higher ankle sprain rate than cushioned column shoe systems. B. No increased incidence of ankle sprains was associated with shoe design. C. Cushioned column shoe systems had a higher ankle sprain rate than traditional shoes. According to McKeon et al., which of the following statements is true regarding the findings of most authors who have investigated whether postural control is related to lateral ankle sprain risk? A. Postural control and ankle sprain risk are not related. B. Methods to evaluate postural control sufficiently do not exist. C. Poor postural control does increase the risk of a lateral ankle sprain. D. Good postural control decreases the risk of all ankle injuries. What did McKeon et al. conclude about individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) and their postural control? A. There is no clear answer currently on whether or not people with CAI possess postural control deficits. B. People with CAI demonstrated bilateral postural control deficits.

5 C. People with CAI demonstrated postural control deficits only in the injured limb. D. People with CAI did not demonstrate postural control deficits.

People with chronic ankle instability B. People with a previous ankle sprain C. People with no history of ankle sprain According to McKeon et al., how many weeks of balance training appeared to be needed to see a positive effect in preventing future ankle sprains? A. 2 weeks B. 4 weeks C. 6 weeks D. 8 weeks Kovaleski et al. recommended the knee be in which position for the ankle anterior drawer test?
