Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

accuracy
Number of correct sequences uttered, total number of sequences, precisions prior to completing three correct trials.
precision
Number of correct sequences uttered, total number of sequences, precisions prior to completing three correct trials.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Inter Step intervals
The technology used can log time data. Therefore, the inter-step intervals can be calculated from the logged data.
Inter Stride intervals
The technology used can log time data. Therefore, the inter stride intervals can be calculated from the logged data.
step duration on the tile
The technology used can log time data. Therefore, the total time that each foot is placed on the tiles can be derived.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The objective of this study to investigate, if learning and recall of a sequence of body movements (steps that realize a pattern on the ground) can be improved by self-produced music (having particular melodic-structures in relation to the pattern), compared to the same sound (a single tone) for each pattern in persons with multiple sclerosis compared to age and gender matched controls
