Brief Summary

In this study, i.e. randomized controlled trial, the effect of an exercise training program on mental and anatomical characteristics of physiotherapy students is measured.

Conditions

Healthy; Student; Physical Therapy

Keywords

exercise; anatomical; mental; training program

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

• d2-R-Test

  Mental

  Change from baseline attention and concentration at 4 weeks (objective)

• AKA-Questionnaire (attention, concentration, learning ability)

  Participants fill out a questionnaire about attention, concentration and learning ability. There are five possible answers for each item from 1 (completely disagree) to 5 (completely agree).

  Change from baseline attention and concentration at 4 weeks (subjective)

• M360 - physiological parameter of the spine

  Participants are measured in different positions (upright, flexion, extension; measured in degrees) to assess position, stability and mobility of the spine. The M360 will be guided along the back and the data will be collected electronically (https://www.idiag.ch/idiag-m360/).

  Change from baseline position and mobility of the spine at 4 weeks

• Pain (Visual Analogue Scale)

  Participants can use this scale to classify their pain from "No pain" and "Maximum pain imaginable" by means of a slider.

  Change from baseline pain (back) at 4 weeks

• FAW-Questionnaire (Actual physical well-being)

  Participants fill out a questionnaire with 58 questions. Each question has five possible answers from 0 (completely disagree) to 4 (completely agree). The highter the score the better the actual physical well-being.

  Change from baseline physical well-being at 4 weeks
