Summary

This study compared the effects of IDT and ADT on cognitive function, physical performance, instrumental activities of daily living (IADL), and quality of life in community-dwelling older adults.

Conditions

  • Incorporated Dual-task Training
  • Additional Dual-task Training

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

the additional dual-task training group (ADT)

the cognitive task was performed concurrently but independently from the motor task, functioning as a distractor rather than a necessary prerequisite for task completion. Examples included performing lower limb strength exercises while solving arithmetic problems or reciting memorized items while stepping.

BEHAVIORAL

the incorporated dual-task training group (IDT)

the cognitive task was integrated within the motor task and was essential for successful completion of the combined motor-cognitive activity. Examples included memorizing and executing movement sequences akin to dancing or completing ladder stepping patterns in a predetermined order.
