Dual-task and electrophysiological markers of executive cognitive processing in older adult gait and fall-risk.

Dual-task and electrophysiological markers of executive cognitive processing in older adult gait and fall-risk.

The role of cognition is becoming increasingly central to our understanding of the complexity of walking gait. Here, we report two experiments which investigated the cognitive and neural processes underlying older adult gait and fall-risk. Experiment 1 employed a dual-task paradigm in young and olde...
