"This research aimed to explore and better understand intervention protocols and their effect on lower limb control associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. A fundamental and unique aspect of this investigation was to establish a lab-based testing protocol that successfully mimicked actual game play. [...]This research validated a lab-based measure that best mimicked game-play to use as a pre- and post- testing measure for two common methods used in current ACL intervention strategies. In addition, further understanding of the effects of a landing training and dynamic balance training program were found." / Doctor of Philosphy
