Behavioral/Physical Assessment

This study will not include any therapeutic or clinical intervention. Instead, participants will undergo a series of structured physical and questionnaire-based assessments to evaluate lower extremity motor performance. These include the Fagerström Test for Nicotine Dependence and DSM-IV-TR criteria to classify smoking addiction. Anthropometric measurements such as Body Mass Index (BMI) and bimalleolar diameter/circumference will be recorded to assess potential confounding structural factors. Lower extremity coordination will be evaluated using the Lower Extremity Motor Coordination Test (LEMOCOT), and movement speed will be assessed with a 30-meter sprint test. All assessments will be conducted once in a controlled laboratory setting and are intended solely for comparative analysis between smokers and non-smokers.
