Purpose of Study

The purpose of this study is to investigate walking dynamics and how they relate to cognitive function.

During this experiment, participants will complete two neurocognitive tests while sitting and one verbal cognitive task while walking. The walking path will be tracked via a video recording. No identifying information or identifiable features will be collected as part of this tracking. Participants are encouraged to wear athletic or non-loose/baggy clothing to ensure optimal joint-tracking for accurate data collection. 

Eligibility

This study is open to individuals above the age of 19. Participants must be fully recovered from a concussion or still experiencing symptoms three months post injury.
