{ "Mental Skills Training for Young Athletes After ACL Reconstruction", "This study is looking at whether Mental Skills Training (MST) can help young athletes cope better after having ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction surgery. MST is a type of behavioral training designed to improve coping strategies, motivation, and confidence. You might be able to join if you are between 8 and 25 years old, have a complete ACL tear, and are having ACL reconstruction surgery at Boston Children's Hospital by a participating surgeon. The main goal is to see if MST improves coping skills, as measured by a specific questionnaire (ACSI-28). The study aims to enroll 130 participants. The current recruitment status is unclear.", "design": "This study will enroll 130 participants, with 65 receiving Mental Skills Training and 65 in a control group (no MST).", "commitments": "Participants will undergo Mental Skills Training pre-operatively, and then at 3, 6, and 9 months after surgery. Coping skills will be measured preoperatively, and at 9 months, 1 year, and 2 years post-operatively.", "compensation": "Not stated in the trial record.", "follow_up": "Participants will be followed for up to 2 years after their surgery to measure coping skills.", }
