But this is such a small & specialized sample: those cadavers whose brains were already chosen for evidence of CTE -- and then the difference didn't even show up as CTE, but as other things reported from their hx! I'd say it's far more likely that the popul'n of kids selected for tackle football would be above avg. in income & care, & therefore more likely to have seen psychiatrists & psychologists later in life for things like mood complaints.
