Tango for Neuropathy Among Breast Cancer Survivors

Intrinsic motivation will be measured using a subscale of the Intrinsic Motivation Inventory (IMI). The 6 item Interest/Enjoyment subscale of the IMI represents intrinsic motivation in an activity just performed as a possible score of 6 to 36 with 6 = most; 18 = neutral; 36 = least interesting/enjoyable. Specific items queried include whether the activity just performed was: enjoyable, enjoyed, boring (reverse order), interesting, fun, and able to hold the participant's attention.

Time frame: Assessed at week 4, week 8, and week 12

Population: The number of analyzed participants is the number of participants who were still adhering to the study intervention at the time points that intrinsic motivation data was collected

Dual task function was measured using the Timed-Up-and-Go motor task while counting backward by 3 s (TUGCog), a validated clinical test of dual-task function for which lower values indicate better performance. To perform this test, participants completed the Timed-Up-and Go (TUG) test commonly used in clinical practice wherein individuals stand from a chair with arms, walk 3 meters, turn around, and return to sitting as fast as safely possible (i.e. motor task) while counting out loud and backward by 3 s (i.e. cognitive task). The test is completed 3 times, with rest allowed between trials. Time in seconds per trial is averaged to produce the TUGCog score per timepoint.

Time frame: Assessed at baseline, 4 weeks, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks

The Timed Up-and-Go test, or TUG, (\<2 min to administer) is a timed test of a person's ability to stand from a chair, walk 10 feet, turn around, and return to sitting with shorter times indicating better functional balance.

Time frame: At baseline, week 4 of intervention, and at 4 week follow-up post intervention, up to 12 weeks

Population: The number of participants analyzed represents the number who completed the TUG tests at each timepoint.

European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer's Quality of Life Questionnaire, Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy (CIPN 20): is a validated instrument for longitudinal evaluation of neuropathy symptoms induced by chemotherapy. This is a 20-item patient reported questionnaire. It is easy to use and filled out by patients themselves. Scores range between 1 to 10 with higher scores indicating greater chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) severity.

Time frame: At week 8 of intervention and at 4-week follow-up post intervention

Population: The number of participants analyzed is the number of participants for which neuropathy symptoms scores were collected at each time point

the number of falls or near falls that the participant remembers experiencing in the month prior to enrollment in the study will be assessed. All reported falls will be totaled and reported by arm.

Time frame: once at the point of study enrollment

the number of falls or near falls experienced by the participant since last evaluation/intervention session. All reported falls throughout the intervention time period will be totaled and reported by arm.

Time frame: at the beginning of each assessment or intervention session for up to 20 sessions, up to 8 weeks

sample entropy of the center of pressure (COP). Sample entropy is a non-linear COP measure that determines the irregularity of a time-series. Sample entropy of the resultant COP position will be calculated using the increment calculation method (SEI) with constant values applied of m = 3 and r = 0.3. Entropy of postural responses represents the automatic complexity of neuromotor control that is available to an individual. Sample entropy scores won't go below 0 or above 2, and higher values indicate better complexity in postural response

Time frame: At baseline, week 8 of intervention, and at 4 week follow-up post intervention

Population: The number of participants analyzed at each time point represents the number who participated in the postural control tests at each timepoint.
