This study sets out to investigate the potential effect of auditory disturbances on human movement
Clinicians routinely investigate/test human movement but if/how this is effect by auditory disturbances is unclear. This study sets out to investigate the impact of auditory disturbances on head movements.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sound 1 | Experimental | A sound will be played while moving the head |
|
| Sound 2 | Experimental | A sound (different from Sound 1) will be played while moving the head |
|
| No Sound | No Intervention | No sound will be played while moving the head |
| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Smartphone playing a sound | Device | A sound will be played from a portable device (smartphone mounted with earphones) during movement |
|
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Range of motion | Range of motion will be assessed during head rotations (i.e. moving the head from a neutral position to end of range in rotation before returning to the start position) | During a single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Head repositioning accuracy | Head repositioning accuracy will be assessed as the error between the starting point and the end point following a head rotation (i.e. moving the head from a neutral position to end of range in rotation before returning to the start position) and will be repressed in degrees. | During a single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Neck Disability Index (NDI) | The NDI questionnaire consists of 10 items (Domains: pain intensity, personal care, lifting, reading, headache, concentration, work, driving, sleeping, recreation) used to assess how neck pain affects your ability to manage everyday activities. Each item is score on a scale from 0-5 with a higher total score = high level of disability | At the beginning of the single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |

| Quality of head movement | Quality of movement (smoothness) will be determined using calculations of jerk variance (Jerk is the time derivative of acceleration which will be measures using an inertial measurement unit. The measure will be converted to a unitless measure where higher values indicates less smooth movements), assessed during head rotations (i.e. moving the head from a neutral position to end of range in rotation before returning to the start position). | During a single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Perceived stiffness during movement | Participants will rate their perceived stiffness during head movement using a 0-100 numerical rating scale, where 0 = no stiffness and 100 = worst stiffness imaginable. | During a single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Perceived difficultness of performing movement | Participants will rate the Perceived difficultness of performing head movements using a 6-point Likert scale going from 0 = no problems, 1 = minimally difficult; 2 = somewhat difficult; 3 = fairly difficult; 4 = very difficult; 5 = unable to perform | During a single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Perceived neck pain intensity | Participants will rate ant potential pain during the session using a 0-11 numeric rating scale (NRS) with 0 = no pain and 10 = worst imaginable pain | During a single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia (TSK-11) | The TSK-11 questionnaire consists of 11 items which is answered using a 4-point scale (1 = strongly disagree, 2 = disagree, 3 = agree, 4 = strongly agree). Score can range from 11 to 44 and a higher score indicated a greater kinesiophobia | At the beginning of the single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Perceived area of neck pain | Participants will draw the area of perceived neck pain on a body chart | At the beginning of the single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
| Fear Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaire-physical activity subscale (FABQpa) | The FABQpa subscale consists of 4 items which are used to assess the participants beliefs on how physical activity can affect their pain. The items are scored on a 7-point scale with 0 = Completely disagree and 6 = Completely agree. Score ranges from 0-24 with a higher score indicating higher fear avoidance beliefs with regards to physical activity | Time Frame: At the beginning of the single test session (approximately 45minutes) at day 1 |
