Dual Task Interference in Young, Middle-Age and Older Adults During Different Functional Mobility Tasks: A Cross Sectional Study
All primary functional mobility tasks experienced interference under dual-task conditions. The relationship between dual motor and cognitive tasks may depend on the difficulty level presented to a given population. This study highlights the importance of understanding dual-task interference to develop targeted interventions for reducing fall risk, especially in older adults.
