A longitudinal study on dual-tasking effects on gait: cognitive change predicts gait variance in the elderly.
Neuropsychological abilities have found to explain a large proportion of variance in objective measures of walking gait that predict both dementia and falling within the elderly. However, to this date there has been little research on the interplay between changes in these neuropsychological process...
