Summary

Attention may influence the motor performance and frontal activity. This study will examine the effect of different attentional focus: internal, external and divided attention (dual task) on prefrontal cortical activation (fNIRS) and on gait performance. Thirty older adults and thirty PD will participate in this study.

Conditions

  • Parkinson Disease

Interventions
