Neural correlates of motor-cognitive dual-tasking in young and old adults. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 When two tasks are performed simultaneously, performance often declines in one or both tasks. These so-called dual-task costs are more pronounced in old than in young adults. One proposed neurological mechanism of the dual-task costs is that old compared

A General Factor Involved in Dual-task Performance Decrement
The Quarterly Journal of Experimental Psychology Section A, 1996 Beyond specific conflicts between tasks that are obviously similar (e.g. two verbal tasks) and limits specific to speeded responses, is there a general limitation on what tasks can be done simultaneously? In two experiments, we examined dual-task combinations designed to avoid known sources of specific interference. Under these circumstances, a general
