The effects of dual-tasking while walking naturally and on a treadmill
Acta PsychologicaDividing attention between cognitive and motor tasks, such as walking while responding to auditory cues in a conversation, is a frequent challenge in everyday life. When demands exceed available cognitive resources, performance can suffer, increasing the

Understanding the dual-task costs of walking: a StartReact study [PDF]
Experimental Brain Research, 2020 AbstractThe need to perform multiple tasks more or less simultaneously is a common occurrence during walking in daily life. Performing tasks simultaneously typically impacts task performance negatively. Hypothetically, such dual-task costs may be explained by a lowered state of preparation due to competition for attentional resources, or alternatively,

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 ...

Age-Related Deficits of Dual-Task Walking: A Review [PDF]
Neural Plasticity, 2012 This review summarizes our present knowledge about elderly people's problems with walking. We highlight the plastic changes in the brain that allow a partial compensation of these age-related deficits and discuss the associated costs and limitations.

A meta-analysis: Parkinson's disease and dual-task walking [PDF]
Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2019 A growing body of literature has reported the effects of dual tasks on gait performance in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). The purpose of this meta-analysis was to synthesize the existing literature and quantify the overall influence of dual tasks on gait performance in PD.

Reliability and Validity of Dual-Task Mobility Assessments in People with Chronic Stroke. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 BACKGROUND:The ability to perform a cognitive task while walking simultaneously (dual-tasking) is important in real life. However, the psychometric properties of dual-task walking tests have not been well established in stroke.
