Make a case for mandatory helmet laws for all motorcycle riders and a ban for contact sports in schools based on your knowledge of neurocognitive disorder due to traumatic brain injury.
What will be an ideal response?
Sample Answer: The symptoms associated with neurocognitive disorder due to traumatic brain injury include executive dysfunction, problems with learning, and problems with memory. Those who are at greatest risk for TBI are teens and young adults, especially accompanied by alcohol abuse or lower socioeconomic class. Traffic accidents, assaults, and falls are common causes of TBI and result in lasting, if not permanent, brain injury. Due to the large number of cases involving traffic accidents and assaults, it is clear that a law making wearing a helmet mandatory for motorcycle riders and a law banning full contact sports in high school would reduce the number of teen and young adult TBIs.
