Dual Task Impairments in Vascular Dementia [PDF]
Several studies have shown that people with Alzheimer's disease (AD) demonstrate difficulties in doing two things at once or 'dual-tasking' and that this dual task impairment is insensitive to normal ageing, chronic depression or prodromal conditions ...

Dual Task Performance in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Several studies have found dual tasking to be impaired in Alzheimer's disease (AD), but unaffected by healthy ageing. It is not known if this deficit is specific to AD, or also present in other neurodegenerative disorders that can occur in later life ...

The effect of dual task demands and proficiency on second language speech production [PDF]
In this study we examined how the introduction of a parallel finger-tapping task influences second language speech (L2) encoding mechanisms and monitoring processes and how the level of proficiency impacts the efficiency and accuracy of L2 performance ...

Another wrinkle on the dual-task SRT experiment: It’s probably not dual task [PDF]
In the standard serial reaction time (SRT) experiment, subjects are required to respond rapidly to a structured sequence of visual targets. Evidence that subjects have acquired knowledge of the structure is obtained by modifying the structured nature of the sequence and noting whether reaction times increase.

Attentional Switches and Dual-Task Interference [PDF]
In four experiments, we studied the time course of interference between detection of an oddball orientation target (OT) in an 8-item circular search display, and identification of a letter target (LT) in a central stream of distractor letters. Dual-task performance for different temporal lags between targets was compared to single-task performance ...

The effect of Single Task and Dual Task Balance Training on the Balance of Older Adults [PDF]
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of three types of balancetraining: single task, dual task under fixed priority instructional set (Fp) and dualtask under a variable priority instructional set (Vp) on the balance of the elderly.The ...

Multitasking measures, such as dual task assessments, are particularly useful in detecting subtle deficits that can influence occupational performance after injuries, like sports-related concussion (SRC). In past work, our research team developed and revised a dual task assessment, the Dual Task Screen (DTS).
