Eligibility

18 Years to 99 Years

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients: Experience low back pain for at least the last three months and between 20 and 40 years of age. Controls: Between 20 and 40 years of age.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Recent surgical intervention on the spinal column, proven pathology of the spine and related structures, infections, recent fractures, psychiatric disorders or neurological compression.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Coupling strength between pelvis and thorax in terms of (cross)correlations of the residual rotations. These correlations will be determined during unperturbed gait, gait while performing a dual task, perturbed gait and a combination of the latter two.	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Step parameters; step frequency and step width Rotational amplitude of the trunk Trunk muscle activation	—
