Symptom scores were collected using the 22-point Symptom Evaluation Scale on the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool (version 5) immediately pre and post physical exertion testing. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Results<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> The symptoms most reported during preexertional testing were fatigue\/low energy, feeling slowed down, and nervous\/anxious, whereas feeling slowed down, fatigue\/low energy, \u201cpressure in head\u201d (males only), and headache (females only) were most frequently reported during postexertion testing. <jats:italic><jats:bold>Conclusion<\/jats:bold>:<\/jats:italic> An understanding of the common exertion-related symptoms at baseline in a laboratory or field-based setting in adolescents may be advantageous for clinicians as they manage individual recovery postconcussion. This is particularly important during an adolescent\u2019s recovery and return to play when exertional testing may be implemented, especially since symptoms were reported pre and post exertional testing in both males and females regardless of concussion history.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/pes.2021-0156","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,20]],"date-time":"2022-07-20T11:45:31Z","timestamp":1658317531000},"page":"70-76","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["The Effect of Physical Exertional Testing on Postconcussion Symptom Scale Scores in Male and Female High School Students"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"35","author":[{"given":"Lauren N.","family":"Miutz","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Alberta Children\u2019s Hospital Research Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Libin Cardiovascular Institute of Alberta, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Carolyn A.","family":"Emery","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Alberta Children\u2019s Hospital Research Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Sport Medicine Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amanda M.","family":"Black","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Alberta Children\u2019s Hospital Research Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matthew J.","family":"Jordan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Canadian Sport Institute Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jonathan D.","family":"Smirl","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Alberta Children\u2019s Hospital Research Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Libin Cardiovascular Institute of Alberta, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kathryn J.","family":"Schneider","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sport Injury Prevention Research Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Alberta Children\u2019s Hospital Research Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Hotchkiss Brain Institute, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Sport Medicine Centre, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, AB, Canada"},{"name":"Evidence Sport and Spinal Therapy, Calgary, AB, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"100","reference":[{"issue":"1","key":"r1","series-title":"J Sci Med Sport","first-page":"24","article-title":"Does exercise evoke neurological symptoms in healthy subjects?","volume":"13","author":"Alla S","year":"2010","unstructured":"Alla S, Sullivan SJ, McCrory P, Schneiders AG, Handcock P.
