About this study
Official title: Impact of Dual Task Therapeutic Exercises on Stress Modulation and Dynamic Balance in University Students
This three-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial (RCT) investigates whether dual-task therapeutic exercises (dynamic balance + cognitive task) improve perceived stress and dynamic balance in 72 healthy university students (19- 22 years) compared to traditional balance training alone or a control group receiving low intensity exercises. The dual-task group performs the same dynamic balance exercises (e.g., backward walking, tandem gait, single-leg reaches) while simultaneously engaging in cognitive tasks (verbal fluency, arithmetic, or working memory). The intervention lasts 6 weeks (2 sessions/week, 20-30 min each). Primary outcomes are Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) scores and objective dynamic balance indices (anterior/posterior/lateral deviation, overall stability) measured via the Balance check 636 device. Assessments occur at baseline and post-intervention by a blinded assessor. The study addresses a gap: no prior trial has examined combined effects of dual-task training on both stress modulation and balance in this population.

Study Design
- Type: Pre-post RCT, three parallel groups (n=24 each).
- Setting: Outpatient Clinic \& Balance Laboratory, Faculty of Physical Therapy, Kafr Elsheikh University.
- Blinding: Assessor blinded to group allocation.
Population \& Eligibility
- Sample: 72 students (both sexes), age 19-22 , BMI 18.5-29.9.
- Inclusion: Free from neurological, musculoskeletal, or psychiatric disorders; willing to comply.
- Exclusion: Lower limb/spine injury/surgery (past 6 months), vestibular disorders, pregnancy, medications affecting balance/cognition, regular balance or mind-body training in past 6 months.
Randomization \& Groups
- Computer-generated block randomization with opaque sealed envelopes.
- Group A (Balance only): dynamic balance exercises (backward walking, lateral stepping, single-leg forward/lateral reach, tandem gait).
- Group B (Dual-task): same balance exercises plus concurrent cognitive tasks: verbal fluency (e.g., name words starting with letter 'S'), arithmetic (e.g., subtract 7 from 100), or working memory (digit span backward). Cognitive tasks varied across sessions.
- Group C (Control): Participants will receive supervised, low-intensity exercises consisting of ankle pumps, seated knee flexion and extension, shoulder circles, and gentle cervical range-of-motion exercises. Sessions will be conducted for a duration and frequency consistent with the approved study protocol.
Intervention Protocol
- Duration: 6 weeks, twice/week, each session 20-30 minutes.
- Progression Not Explicitly Stated - but exercises are fixed (10 repetitions or 10 m distance per item).
- Safety: Arms crossed over chest in most exercises to eliminate upper limb compensation.
Outcome Measures (assessed at baseline \& week 6)
- Primary - Perceived Stress: Arabic PSS-10 (0-40, higher = worse).
- Primary - Dynamic Balance: Balance check 636 (multiaxial wobble board with real-time software) - records anterior/posterior/right/left average deviations and overall stability index.
- Anthropometric: Weight, height, BMI via standard scale.
Statistical Analysis
- Software: SPSS v26.
- Normality: Shapiro-Wilk test.
- Within-group: Paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank.
- Between-groups (post-intervention): One-way ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis; post-hoc with Bonferroni.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Dynamic balance exercisesOther
Participants perform a structured set of dynamic balance exercises under single-task conditions (motor task only). Exercises include:
- Controlled Backward Walking (CBW): Walk backward in a straight line (10 meters) using a toe-heel strike pattern; maintain upright trunk, head forward, arms naturally at sides.
- Controlled Lateral Dynamic Stepping (CLDS): Step sideways along a 10 meter path; feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly flexed, hands clasped at chest; gaze fixed forward.
- Single-Leg Forward Reach (SLFR): Stand on one limb, hands crossed over chest; reach the non-standing leg forward to touch the floor with toes, return without losing balance. 10 repetitions per leg.
- Single-Leg Lateral Reach (SLSR): Same as SLFR but reaching sideways (lateral abduction). 10 repetitions per leg.
- Dynamic Tandem Gait (DTG): Walk heel-to-toe in a straight line (10 meters) with hands crossed over chest; gaze fixed forward
Control groupOther
Control Group: Participants will receive supervised, low-intensity exercises consisting of ankle pumps, seated knee flexion and extension, shoulder circles, and gentle cervical range-of-motion exercises. Sessions will be conducted for a duration and frequency consistent with the approved study protocol.
Dual task exercisesOther
Arm B: Dual-Task Therapeutic Exercise Group
Intervention Type: Other (Dual-Task Training)
Intervention Name: Dual-Task Therapeutic Exercise
Description:
Participants perform exactly the same dynamic balance exercises as Arm A, but simultaneously with a secondary cognitive task (dual-task condition). The cognitive task is performed throughout the duration of each balance exercise. Cognitive tasks are varied across sessions to maintain engagement and avoid habituation, and include:
- Verbal Fluency Task: e.g., "Name as many words as you can starting with the letter 'S'" or "Name as many animals/fruits/cities."
- Arithmetic Task: e.g., "Count backwards from 100 by 7" or "Subtract 3 from 50, then 3 from that number, and so on."
- Working Memory Task: The therapist reads a list of numbers or words; the participant recalls them in reverse order (digits backward).
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Dynamic Balance Training Only | Active comparator | Participants perform a structured set of dynamic balance exercises under single-task conditions (motor task only). Exercises include:
1. Controlled Backward Walking (CBW): Walk backward in a straight line (10 meters) using a toe-heel strike pattern; maintain upright trunk, head forward, arms naturally at sides.
2. Controlled Lateral Dynamic Stepping (CLDS): Step sideways along a 10 meter path; feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly flexed, hands clasped at chest; gaze fixed forward.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Balance check 636
Measured: baseline and at 6 weeks post-treatment
PERCEIVED SRESS SCALE
The Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) is a 10-item self-report questionnaire designed to measure the degree to which situations in one's life over the past month are appraised as stressful. Items assess feelings of unpredictability, uncontrollability, and overload (e.g., "How often have you felt nervous and stressed?"). Responses are rated on a 5-point Likert scale from 0 (never) to 4 (very often). Total scores range from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating higher perceived stress.
Measured: baseline and at 6 weeks post-treatment

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
This three-arm, parallel-group, randomized controlled trial (RCT) investigates whether dual-task therapeutic exercises (dynamic balance + cognitive task) improve perceived stress and dynamic balance in 72 healthy university students (19- 22 years) compared to traditional balance training alone or a control group receiving low intensity exercises. The dual-task group performs the same dynamic balance exercises (e.g., backward walking, tandem gait, single-leg reaches) while simultaneously engaging in cognitive tasks (verbal fluency, arithmetic, or working memory). The intervention lasts 6 weeks (2 sessions/week, 20-30 min each). Primary outcomes are Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) scores and objective dynamic balance indices (anterior/posterior/lateral deviation, overall stability) measured via the Balance check 636 device. Assessments occur at baseline and post-intervention by a blinded assessor. The study addresses a gap: no prior trial has examined combined effects of dual-task training on both stress modulation and balance in this population.
