Summary

The aim of this study is to compare the motor imagery abilities of patients with migraine to those of healthy individuals, and to examine the relationship between motor imagery and proprioception (cervical and trunk), balance, body awareness, anxiety, and depression levels. Additionally, the study aims to investigate the relationship between proprioception and balance in patients with migraine. Motor imagery abilities of patients with migraine and healthy control subjects (aged 18-65 years; planned sample size: 68 individuals in each group, 68 migraine patients and 68 healthy participants) will be assessed using the Movement Imagery Questionnaire-3, the Motor Imagery Ability Test, mental chronometry, mental rotation tasks, and functional MRI (fMRI) during motor imagery of different tasks. Additionally, in patients with migraine, cervical and trunk proprioception, balance, body awareness, the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, the Vertigo Symptom Scale, the Dizziness Handicap Inventory, and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale will be evaluated.
