Walking while memorizing: age-related differences in compensatory behavior.
This study investigated predictions of the life-span theory of selection, optimization, and compensation, focusing on different patterns of task priority during dual-task performance in younger and older adults. Cognitive (memorizing) and sensorimotor (walking a narrow track) performance were measured singly, concurrently, and when task difficulty was manipulated. Use of external aids was measu...
متن کاملAssessing of Kinematic Variables of the Lower Extremity while Walking in Military Personnel Healthy and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Background and Aim: Due to the long-term recovery of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and postoperative problems as well as the nonadherence to postoperative rehabilitation programs, the risk of re-injury of this ligament will increase. To ignore kinematic variables in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructed (ACLR) individuals can be one of the main causes of injury in these people. The...
متن کاملAge-related changes in auditory temporal processing in the rat.
Presbycusis, as the deterioration of hearing ability occurring with aging, can be manifested not only in a shift of hearing thresholds, but also in a deterioration of the temporal processing of acoustical signals, which may in elderly people result in degraded speech comprehension. In this study we assessed the age-related changes in the temporal processing of acoustical signals in the auditory...
متن کاملPerception threshold of locomotor symmetry while walking on a split-belt treadmill in healthy elderly individuals.
Some hemiparetic patients walk asymmetrically. To better understand the mechanisms of this deficiency, the perception of locomotor symmetry was investigated in healthy elderly individuals. 16 participants (6 women, 10 men; M age = 70.9 yr., SD = 4.1) walked on a split-belt treadmill either at a self-selected or imposed gait speed. The speed of the two belts was initially similar (or different) ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Foot Orthosis on the Vertical Component of the Ground Reaction Force While Walking: A Review Study
Objective: Every person is required to walk and stand for long periods of time during daily activities, especially at work, as a result of which ground reaction force to the parts and joints is very high, and these forces sometimes reach several times the body weight in the foot and the ankle foot can have devastating effects. Various studies have suggested different methods and factors for red...
