Summary

The objective of this study is to investigate psychometric properties of dual-task walking assessments and compare effects of combined motor and cognitive training on physical fitness, brain fitness, and dual-task walking performance in pre-frail elderly. Specifically, we will investigate psychometric properties (i.e. reliability and validity) of dual-task walking assessments for pre-frail elderly (Aim 1). The second aim of this study is to compare the effects of combined motor and cognitive training vs. motor training alone vs. cognitive training alone vs. no intervention control on physical fitness, brain fitness, and dual-task walking performance in pre-frail elderly (Aim 2). The third aim of this study is to elucidate the effects of combined motor and cognitive training on patterns of cognitive motor interference in pre-frail elderly (Aim 3).

Conditions

  • Pre-frail Elderly

Interventions

DEVICE

combined motor and cognitive training

The combined motor and cognitive training group will receive physical fitness training under sitting and standing, walking training while sequentially or simultaneously perform cognitive training for 45 minutes per session, 3 times a week for 4 weeks.

DEVICE

motor training alone

The motor training alone group will receive the same set of physical fitness training while sitting, standing, and walking as the combined motor and cognitive training group for 45 minutes per session, 3 times a week for 4 weeks.

DEVICE

cognitive training alone

The cognitive training alone group will receive the same set of cognitive training while sitting as the combined motor and cognitive training group for 45 minutes per session, 3 times a week for 4 weeks.
