Concussion causes neurophysiological changes resulting in clinical deficits and psychological changes - presenting those injured with significant physical and psychosocial burden. Increased perceived stress, which is associated with decreased mental, physical health, and quality of life (QOL), may be heightened post-concussion. Furthermore, research suggests higher mindfulness is associated with decreased perceived stress and increased mental and physical health. Despite these connections, no research has identified the associations among perceived stress, mindfulness, and clinical and psychological concussion outcomes - knowledge necessary to inform effective interventions. This dissertation consisted of two studies: 1) a cross-sectional observational study in 80 young adults with a concussion history in which participants completed a single study visit including measures for demographics, concussion history, mental health history, current mindfulness practice, perceived stress, mindfulness, clinical concussion outcomes (concussion symptoms, balance performance, ANS function, vestibular/ocular function, and exertion tolerance), and psychological concussion outcomes (neurocognitive performance, psychological distress, and QOL); and 2) a single arm mindfulness intervention pilot study where 15 participants completed 10-20 minutes of mindfulness exercises/meditations daily for six weeks and were assessed for adherence, acceptability, feasibility, intervention perceptions, and preliminary efficacy (concussion symptoms, perceived stress, and mindfulness). Cross-sectional results suggest that higher perceived stress was significantly associated with higher concussion symptoms, higher psychological distress, and lower QOL. Additionally, higher mindfulness was significantly associated with lower concussion symptoms, lower psychological distress, and higher QOL. Mindfulness did not moderate the relationship between perceived stress and concussion outcomes. Pilot intervention results suggest positive adherence, acceptability, feasibility, and overall intervention perceptions. Additionally, concussion symptoms significantly decreased pre/post-intervention. Results provide a novel understanding of the association among perceived stress, mindfulness, and clinical and psychological concussion outcomes and the impact of a mindfulness intervention in young adults with a concussion history. This study will inform future interventions aimed to mitigate stress and/or target mindfulness post-concussion.
