The Effect of Cognitive Training on Lower Limb Muscular Activity in Older Adults With Balance Impairment During Walking
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of two different approaches of dual-task training and executive training on lower limb muscular activity in older adults with balance impairment. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study performed with the pre-test and post-test method. Thirty older adults (age= 73.8±4.6, height= 1.65±0.06, weight= 69.17±12.67) were randomly ass...

Introduction: Mild cognitive impairment can be considered as an intermediate clinical state between normal cognitive aging and mild dementia. Elderly people with this impairment represent an at-risk group for the development of dementia. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of cognitive impairment in community-dwelling older adults by Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and ...
متن کاملCognitive-Motor Interference during Walking in Older Adults with Probable Mild Cognitive Impairment
Although several studies have shown that dual-tasking (DT) mobility is impaired in Alzheimer's disease, studies on the effects of DT conditions in probable Mild Cognitive Impairment (pMCI) have not yielded unequivocal results. The objectives of the study were to (1) examine the effect of a concurrent task on a complex walking task in adults with cognitive impairment; and (2) determine whether t...
متن کاملThe Effect of Dual Motor-cognitive Task Training on Inter-join Coordination during Walking in Elderly with Balance Impairment
Introduction: In recent years, the effect of cognitive exercises on improving gait parameters has been studied, but the effects of these exercises on coordination inter-joint of the lower limbs have received less attention. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dual task motor-cognitive training on inter-join coordination during walking in elderly with balance impair...
متن کاملTowards Attention Monitoring of Older Adults with Cognitive Impairment During Interaction with an Embodied Conversational Agent
Embodied conversational agent (ECAs) are virtual characters using verbal and non-verbal communication for Human-machine interaction. The aim of our research is to create an ECA-based user interface for assistive technologies targeting older adults with cognitive impairment. Our design methodology is a co-design living lab approach, collecting design guidelines through questionnaires, focus grou...
