Legislators' Perceptions and Knowledge of the Athletic Training Profession: Specific Considerations for Secondary Schools.
CONCLUSIONS: Legislators demonstrated limited knowledge of the AT profession. When legislator knowledge of AT qualifications and responsibilities was high, value of the AT profession also significantly improved. Future efforts should focus on enhancing legislators' knowledge to increase the value placed on the AT profession and improve health and safety for secondary school athletes.
