Summary

The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of dual-task conditions on manual dexterity performance in typically developing young people and children between the ages of 7-18.

MATERIAL AND METHOD:

* Demographic information, dominant extremity will be noted and the evaluation will begin by applying the Physical Activity Questionnaire for Children.
* The evaluations will primarily evaluate the child's performance on a single cognitive task
* The cognitive task will be the n-back task (counting down task) to be applied in accordance with the level of the child or adolescent.
* Using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), participants will be asked to score the difficulty of the cognitive task as a number between 0 and 10.
* the 9-Hole Test will be applied and the times will be recorded by asking to write a given paragraph.
* Dual task evaluations will be administered by giving a simultaneous cognitive task while administering the -9-Hole Test and writing a paragraph.
* In order to reveal the dual-task cost (DTC), dual-task performance will be subtracted from single-task performance and the difference will be calculated in seconds.

As a result of this study, manual dexterity performance and cognitive performance in single-task conditions in typically developing children and adolescents will be revealed. Additionally, changes in this performance will be detected in dual-task situations.
