Comparative effects of arithmetic, speech, and motor dual-task walking on gait in stroke survivors: a cross-sectional study [PDF]
BackgroundThe application of dual-task walking paradigms for gait assessment in stroke patients is critical, where varying concurrent tasks may elicit distinct gait patterns of dual-task interference.

Change in activity patterns in the prefrontal cortex in different phases during the dual-task walking in older adults [PDF]
Background Studies using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) have shown that dual-task walking leads to greater prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation compared to the single-task walking task.
