Dual-task treadmill walking at self-paced versus fixed speeds

Gait and Posture, 2021
Investigating cognitive-motor interference on the treadmill allows for better examination of motor adaptation to the dual-task challenges through the information of continuous strides. However, one of the major critiques for conducting dual-task investigation on a treadmill is the use of a constant, fixed walking speed, constraining the natural ...

Dual-task walking and falls in the elderly

Egészségtudományi Közlemények, 2023
Dual-task walking is a common activity in everyday life. The dual-task paradigm is a procedure in experimental psychology that involves examining the performance of two tasks separately and simultaneously, allowing researchers to determine the extent to which different mental abilities compete for information-processing resources in the brain.

Factors infulencing gait in dual-task walking

Egészségtudományi Közlemények, 2023
Gait with an additional task commonly occurs in everyday life, e.g., simultaneously walking and talking on the phone. The dual-task paradigm (comparison of task performance efficiency under single-task conditions and simultaneous performance of both tasks) has found application in gait research. It is a test that allows assessing the quality of gait in

Influence of dual task constraints during walking for children

Gait & Posture, 2013
The effects of dual-task constraints on bimanual coordination and walking in three age groups: young (4-6 years old), middle (7-9 years old), and older groups (10-13 years old) were examined. Children were asked to first walk along a path (baseline condition) and then to walk along the same path while carrying a box steady and level (dual-task ...

Usual and Dual-Task Walking Speed

Journal of Aging and Health, 2015
Objective: In many countries, pedestrian light crossings require a minimum walking speed of 1.2 m/s. This study examined the proportion of adults in a nationally representative sample whose usual and dual-task walking speeds are <1.2 m/s. Method: Community-dwelling adults aged ≥50 years in The Irish Longitudinal Study on Ageing (TILDA) completed ...

Effects of Age on Dual-Task Walking While Listening

Journal of Motor Behavior, 2018
This study examined the effects of age on single- and dual-task listening and walking during virtual street crossing. Seventeen younger and 12 older adults participated. In each listening trial, three sentences were presented simultaneously from separate locations. Participants were instructed to report the target sentence. Predictability of the target

Walking and cognition, but not symptoms, correlate with dual task cost of walking in multiple sclerosis

Gait & Posture, 2014
Performing a cognitive task while walking results in a reduction of walking performance among persons with MS. To date, very little is known about correlates of this dual task cost (DTC) of walking in MS.We examined walking performance, cognitive processing speed, and symptoms of fatigue, depression, anxiety, and pain as correlates of DTC of walking in

Dual task effects of walking when talking in Alzheimer's disease

Revue Neurologique, 2004
Previous studies with Alzheimer Disease (AD) patients have suggested that speed and accuracy in walking can be dramatically affected by a simultaneous secondary cognitive task, such as holding a conversation. Two experiments examined the impact on AD patients and age matched elderly controls of cognitive demands while walking.
