Interventions
experimental group
Oswestry Low Back Pain Questionnaire will be used to assess functional limitations in daily life activities of patients with low back pain. Recognize mobile application will be used to assess lateralization performance. Evaluation will be made with hand, foot and back modules of this application. Reaction time and accuracy given at the end of the application will be recorded. The most accurate response instruction will be given in the shortest possible time. Visual Analog Scale (VAS) will be used to measure general pain status of patients. Tampa Kinesiophobia Scale will be used to assess fear of movement. Pain catastrophizing level will be assessed with Pain Catastrophizing Scale. Two-point discrimination device will be used to assess two-point discrimination. Central Sensitization Inventory will be used for central sensitization findings.
control group
Healthy volunteer participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be evaluated with the tests applied to the experimental group
