Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of a brief web-based educational intervention on improving Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury prevention comprehension and implementation feasibility among coaches of athletes participating in landing and cutting sports (e.g., soccer, basketball, football, etc.). The two main hypotheses are that, compared to both an active and placebo control group, the brief animated video will produce greater improvements in:

1. Overall comprehension of ACL injury risk and mitigation: placebo control group \< active control group \< intervention group.
2. Feasibility of utilizing ACL injury prevention strategies: placebo control group \< active control group \< intervention group.

Exploratory hypothesis: The brief animated video will produce greater improvements in various subcomponents of comprehension-specifically: basic ACL knowledge, risk knowledge, prevention knowledge and severity knowledge compared to both active and placebo control group conditions.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a computer-based, three-arm pre-post randomized control design trial. Participants were randomized into an intervention group, active control group or passive control group on a 1:1:1 ratio by a computer-generated algorithm embedded within the Qualtrics software (Qualtrics, Provo, UT). Sports coaches of youth and adolescent athletes in various landing and cutting sports (e.g., soccer, basketball, volleyball, etc.) in the United States were recruited and invited through Qualtrics' panelists. The intervention group was shown a three-minute animated video consisting of various information components aimed at improving capability, motivation and opportunity to implement ACL injury prevention strategies. The active control group received commonly accessed information from a WebMD web-based article on ACL injury prevention. The placebo control group intervention received an educational video from the CDC about concussions that is comparable in duration to that of the ACL video. Overall ACL comprehension-composed of basic ACL knowledge, risk knowledge, prevention knowledge, and severity knowledge-as well as implementation feasibility were all measured prior to and immediately following the interventions.
