简要总结
The study investigates the effect of different conditions of auditory cueing and music on walking quality and perceived fatigue in persons with multiple sclerosis compared to healthy controls. The study extends over a four session period, each session lasting maximally 1h30 minutes The experimental conditions include participants walking to music and metronome (at different tempi) for 3minutes and 15 seconds per condition, with a rest period of 3 minutes in between each condition. Non-invasive equipment will be used. participants are equipped with sensors (watch-like straps at the wrists, ankles and across the chest) and are given wireless headphones.

结局指标
主要结局
Spatio-temporal parameters of gait
时间窗: week 3
Participants wear portable APDM sensors. These sensors are activated during the walking, and record the spatio-temporal parameters of gait.
Parameter's of sychronisation
时间窗: week 3
Participants have two light ipods attached on their ankles- these are a part of the D-jogger system. The system is activated during the walking, and logs the synchronization parameters
次要结局
- motivation(week 3)
- physical /mental fatigue(week 3)
- subjective physical /mental fatigue(week 2)
