Dual-Task Performance in GBA Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesParkinson's Disease, 2017
Introduction. Parkinson’s disease patients carrying a heterozygous mutation in the gene glucocerebrosidase (GBA-PD) show faster motor and cognitive decline than idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (iPD) patients, but the mechanisms behind this observation are

The effect of dual task demands and proficiency on second language speech production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
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 ...

The workload implications of haptic displays in multi-display environments such as the cockpit: Dual-task interference of within-sense haptic inputs (tactile/proprioceptive) and between-sense inputs (tactile/proprioceptive/auditory/visual) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Visual workload demand within the cockpit is reaching saturation, whereas the haptic sense (proprioceptive and tactile sensation) is relatively untapped, despite studies suggesting the benefits of haptic displays.

Investigating Task-Order Coordination in Dual-Task Situations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Bisherige Studien liefern Hinweise für das Auftreten von aktiven Prozessen der Reihenfolgekoordination in Doppelaufgaben. Diese Prozesse sind notwendig für die Regulation der Bearbeitungsreihenfolge von zwei Aufgaben.

Dual Task Performance in Adolescents With Idiopathic Scoliosis

open access: yesPerceptual and Motor Skills, 2023
Daily life activities commonly include many combinations of dual tasks. Although dual task ability has been studied in healthy young adults, dual task performance in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (IS) has not been explored. Our objective in this study was to investigate dual task performance in adolescents with IS.

Dual task impairments in vascular dementia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...

Effects of Thermal Stress on Dual Task Performance and Attention Allocation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A visual-visual dual task was designed to test the effect of the thermal environment on dual task performance and attention allocation. The temperatures selected for testing were 20 and 35°C Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) in experiment 1 and 25, 30 ...

Tennis expertise reduces costs in cognition but not in motor skills in a cognitive-motor dual-task condition

open access: yesActa Psychologica, 2022
Dual-process theories predict performance reductions under dual-task situations (= situations where two tasks have to be processed and executed simultaneously), because limited cognitive resources have to be shared between concurrent tasks.

Stay Focused! The Effects of Internal and External Focus of Attention on Movement Automaticity in Patients with Stroke. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Dual-task performance is often impaired after stroke. This may be resolved by enhancing patients' automaticity of movement. This study sets out to test the constrained action hypothesis, which holds that automaticity of movement is enhanced by triggering
