Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare a 4-week, moderately intensive, lab and home-based aerobic exercise program versus exercise plus cognitive training. Participants will include individuals who experience lingering symptoms of a head injury or concussion.

Primary Outcome

Self reported symptoms following a head injury. Each of the 16 symptom items (e.g., sleep disturbance) is scored 0-4 (0=not experienced at all; 1=no more of a problem; 2=a mild problem; 3=a moderate problem; 4=a severe problem), yielding a total between 0 and 64. We are targeting change in total symptoms but because of the problems with "change scores" our operational definition of successful change in the primary outcome will be the time 2 total score (1-month follow-up) regressed on group whil
