Gait Observation Arousal and Valence Scores in Parkinson's Disease

A study of 100 participants (50 with Parkinson's disease, 50 healthy controls) evaluated emotional responses to observed gait videos. Data includes arousal and valence scores from a questionnaire for 36 videos categorized by environmental context and walking demand.

Use Cases

• Analyze arousal score variation across environmental context (natural vs. built) and walking demand (LD, MD, HD) categories.
• Compare valence attribution patterns between Parkinson's disease and healthy control groups for different video conditions.
• Model the relationship between task complexity (HD > MD > LD) and reported arousal levels using the questionnaire data.

Strengths

• Includes data from 100 total participants, enabling group comparisons.
• Questionnaire responses are structured around two clear factors: context and walking demand.
• Data is associated with a published research study on Parkinson's disease.

Limitations

• Dataset is small, consisting of questionnaire responses for 36 video stimuli.
• The underlying raw data (e.g., individual scores per video) is not directly visible in the provided PDF summary.
• Geographic origin of the 100 participants is not specified.
