Brief Summary:
This observational study will aim to investigate the effects of cigarette addiction on lower extremity motor coordination and movement speed in young adults. The study will include healthy participants aged 18-25 years, divided into smokers and non-smokers. Motor coordination will be assessed using the Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test (LEMOCOT), and speed will be evaluated with a 30-meter sprint test. Nicotine dependence will be evaluated in smokers using the Fagerström Test. The findings will provide insight into the possible functional impacts of nicotine addiction on motor performance.
Detailed Description:
The study will be conducted as a non-randomized controlled observational trial at the Faculty of Health Sciences, Department of Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation. A total of 24 healthy young adults (12 smokers, 12 non-smokers) will participate. The inclusion criteria will require participants to be aged 18-25, cooperative, literate, and able to walk independently. Participants will be categorized as smokers based on WHO and DSM-IV-TR criteria. The primary assessments will include LEMOCOT and 30-meter sprint test. Nicotine addiction will be measured using the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence (FTND), and anthropometric data including BMI and bimalleolar diameter will also be recorded. Data will be analyzed to determine any statistical differences or correlations between smoking status and motor performance outcomes.
