This presentation will review existing literature concerning collegiate athletic rehabilitation noncompliance/compliance and will discuss the development of a new instrument by which athletes, athletic trainers, and sports psychologists can rate the importance of the most highly recognized indicators for rehabilitation non-adherence This instrument is developed in the hopes that it will provide a common pathway to assess the indicators associated with non-adherence and discern any differences in perceptions of significance of these factors between groups.
