摘要: Changes in gait parameters induced by the concomitant performance of one two cognitive tasks activating working memory and spatial attention, was examined healthy young adults (YA) older (OA). There a main effect task condition on gait-speed (p = .02), stride-length < .001) double-support time .04) independent group. were no significant differences between attention associated changes. Working-memory spatial-attention dual-tasking led to decrease .09 0.01) .04 increase .01 0.03) YA alone OA. Cognitive changes may be function limited attentional resources irrespective type task.
