Effect of automaticity induced by treadmill walking on prefrontal cortex activation and dual-task performance in older adults.

As individuals age, they may experience a decline in gait automaticity, which requires increased attentional resources for the control of gait. This age-related decline in gait automaticity has been shown to contribute to higher prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation and lower dual-task performance duri...
