Study Overview
Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to identify the influence of positive and negative auditory cues, music and a placebo (silence) on mood and gait during 30 minutes of free walking. Participants will be required to walk for a total of 30 minutes with mood being measured every 5 minutes and gait measured throughout the 30 minute protocol.
