Study Summary

A fundamental clinical problem in individuals with chronic low back pain is the significant alteration in movement patterns that restrict lumbar spine motion. This is particularly true for individuals with fear of re-injury with movement (i.e., kinesiophobia). The primary aims of the current study are to use a whole body video game environment to 1) determine the effects of game play on lumbar spine flexion and expectations of pain and harm and 2) determine the effects of altered movement gain on lumbar spine flexion.

Primary Outcome

This assessment tracks the magnitude of spine motion used to complete standardized reaching tasks in which participants reach to 3 targets (High, Middle, Low) located in the mid-sagittal plane. Participants will perform five reaching trials to each the target location and then return to an upright posture, with rest provided between each trial. Lumbar spine flexion will be defined as the change in joint angle (i.e., the difference between the joint angles at the beginning of the trial before the
