No results posted yet for this study

Summary

(1) postural and suprapostural performance of a dual task would be differently affected by the strategy of task prioritization and (2) the cortical activation is different according to attentional focus strategies.

Conditions

  • Postural and Suprapostural Performance During Dual Tasking in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Weight-shifting training

Postural task: Participants are standing with their weak side on the force plate. During the task, they wight-shift from side to side ranging from 10 to 90 percent of their body weight. Suprapostural task: Participants hold a tray with their arms beside the body, 90 degrees of elbow flexion. They rotate the tray left and right for 45 degrees respectively. During their task, participants should weight-shift and rotate the tray at the same time.
