Abstract

This article examines the relationship between demographic and health factors and baseline oculomotor functioning in professional Canadian Football League (CFL) athletes. The study involved 428 male athletes aged 21 to 40 who completed concussion history and medical questionnaires alongside the EYE-SYNC saccade test, which measures eye movement accuracy and precision. Results showed no significant effects of concussion history, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Learning Disability (LD), age, or physical exertion on oculomotor performance. These findings suggest that baseline oculomotor functioning in CFL athletes is not influenced by these factors, providing useful information for clinicians involved in sport-related concussion diagnosis.
