- Clinically definite multiple sclerosis according to the revised McDonald criteria.
- People with EDSS ≤ 5.0.
- People with MS who experience foot drop.
- Able to walk at least 200 meters unassisted, i.e without walking aids.
For healthy participants:
- Not been diagnosed with any neurological disease or have any other condition or injury which will affect walking ability.
Exclusion Criteria:
For people with MS:
- Clinically diagnosed relapse within the last month.
- Any musculoskeletal impairment that can affect walking ability.
- Cognitive impairments; with a score in the Multiple Sclerosis Neuropsychological Screening Questionnaire (MSNQ) ≤ 75.
- Depression and anxiety; with a score in Hospital Anxiety & Depression Scale (HADS) > 10.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Other: MS group
This group will perform walking trials in various conditions, i.e. normal walking, walking whilst performing an attention demanding task and walking while being physically tired.
|
In the incremental shuttle walk test, participants will have to walk between two cones (10m distance) several times. The time they will have to cover the distance between the two cones (signified by 'bleeps') will become increasingly shorter, until they cannot get to the next cone before the next 'bleep'. This test will last a maximum of 20 minutes. In the Stroop test, the words of four colours, but written with a different colour, will be projected on the wall in front of participants and they will need to identify the colour of the text and ignore the word itself.
