We are seeking 40 healthy men and women who are aged over 18 years and exhibit mild to moderate impairments.

If you agree to participate in this study, we will ask you to do three things:

  1. Answer some questions online (a web link will be sent to your e-mail). These questions will ask you about your general, physical, and mental health. This will take up to 1 hour to complete. You can complete these questions in more than one session. But it is important these questions are completed before your first assessment.
  2. Have your cognition, balance and walking tested in the School of Physiotherapy Balance Clinic, using a variety of tests. This will take up to two 2 hours, including refreshment and breaks if necessary.
  3. Have your balance and walking tested remotely at home, using videoconference, 7 to 14 days after your visit to the School of Physiotherapy Balance Clinic. The balance and walking tests will be the same as tested during the School of Physiotherapy visit. We will instruct you how to set things up for the remote assessment. This remote assessment will take up to 1 hour and 30 minutes, including refreshment and breaks if necessary.

For further information see the information sheet.
