Dual-Tasking in Older people
751 Trips are a commonly reported cause of falls and are reported to contribute between 35% and 53% of falls in older people (1,2). poor lower limb strength as suggested by poor leg press push off force (3), fast walking speed prior to crossing an obstacle (4), and delayed support limb loading (4) are associated with a greater risk of falling following an obstacle contact in healthy older adult...
متن کاملThe Reliability of Postural Balance Measures in Single and Dual Tasking in Healthy Elders
Objectives: The present study aimsed to examine the reliability of forceplate parameters under both single and dual task conditions and in different levels of postural difficulty. Methods & Materials: The healthy elderly+65, were assessed with aone-week interval, with a random combination of three levels of postural difficulty (i.e., standing on a rigid surface with eyes open, standing on a ...
متن کاملLongitudinal effects of bilingualism on dual-tasking
An ongoing debate surrounds whether bilinguals outperform monolinguals in tests of executive processing. The aim of this study was to investigate if there are long-term (10 year) bilingual advantages in executive processing, as indexed by dual-task performance, in a sample that were 40-65 years at baseline. The bilingual (n = 24) and monolingual (n = 24) participants were matched on age, sex, e...
متن کاملDual-tasking gait variability and cognition in late-life depression.
OBJECTIVES Studies have demonstrated an association between major depressive disorder (MDD) symptoms and fall risk in older adults, which may be at least partially mediated by executive functioning skills. There have also been observations of increased gait variability associated with fall risk and disease. This preliminary study first sought to understand whether gait variability in the contex...
متن کاملTask Prioritization in Dual-Tasking: Instructions versus Preferences
The role of task prioritization in performance tradeoffs during multi-tasking has received widespread attention. However, little is known on whether people have preferences regarding tasks, and if so, whether these preferences conflict with priority instructions. Three experiments were conducted with a high-speed driving game and an auditory memory task. In Experiment 1, participants did not re...
