Dual Task Performance in Parkinson’s Disease [PDF]
Behavioural Neurology, 2013 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 ...

Effect of automaticity induced by treadmill walking on prefrontal cortex activation and dual-task performance in older adults. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 As individuals age, they may experience a decline in gait automaticity, which requires increased attentional resources for the control of gait. This age-related decline in gait automaticity has been shown to contribute to higher prefrontal cortex (PFC ...

Neuroimaging, Behavioral, and Gait Correlates of Fall Profile in Older Adults
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2021 Prior research has suggested that measurements of brain functioning and performance on dual tasks (tasks which require simultaneous performance) are promising candidate predictors of fall risk among older adults.

Dual-task interference as a function of varying motor and cognitive demands
Frontiers in Psychology, 2022 Multitasking is a critical feature of our daily lives. Using a dual-task paradigm, this experiment explored adults’ abilities to simultaneously engage in everyday motor and cognitive activities, counting while walking, under conditions varying the ...

Scoping review of dual-task interference in individuals with intellectual disability
Frontiers in Psychology, 2023 Dual-task paradigms can provide insights on the structures and mechanisms underlying information processing and hold diagnostic, prognostic, and rehabilitative value for populations with cognitive deficits such as in individuals with intellectual ...

Muscular and Prefrontal Cortex Activity during Dual-Task Performing in Young Adults
European Journal of Investigation in Health, Psychology and Education, 2023 Postural control depends on attentional resources besides automatic processes. The dual-task paradigm is a possible approach to analyzing the interference and performance between motor and/or cognitive tasks. Various studies showed that, when individuals

Acta Psychologica, 2021 The present study asks how behavioral (dual-action) demands in dual tasks are mentally represented and whether changes in representation might govern practice-related dual-task performance improvements.

Journal of Integrative Neuroscience, 2023 Background: Dual task assessments, which simultaneously challenge and assess cognitive and motor performance, have been used to improve the assessment of athletes with sports-related concussions (SRC). Our lab created a Dual Task Screen (DTS) to evaluate

Unexpected dual task benefits on cycling in Parkinson disease and healthy adults: a neuro-behavioral model. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 When performing two tasks at once, a dual task, performance on one or both tasks typically suffers. People with Parkinson's disease (PD) usually experience larger dual task decrements on motor tasks than healthy older adults (HOA).

Age-related decrements in dual-task performance: Comparison of different mobility and cognitive tasks. A cross sectional study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 This cross-sectional study investigated the age-related differences in dual-task performance both in mobility and cognitive tasks and the additive dual-task costs in a sample of older, middle-aged and young adults. 74 older adults (M = 72.63±5.57 years),
