We feel that the significant effects of this intervention on single-task postural control and a trend toward effects on dual-task postural control demonstrated in the work by Ullman and colleagues do not change our overall conclusion that dual-task postural control appears to be optimally modified by specific dual-task training.
Because dual-task performance can be modified by focusing attention on one task or another, the effect of dual-task training may be influenced by the instructions provided.
This study was designed to identify perseverative reaching tendencies in children with intellectual disabilities (ID), over a period of 1 year, by using a version of the Piagetian "A not B" task modified by Smith, Thelen, Titzer, and McLin (1999).
Neural correlates have suggested that the effects of DA on cognition and brain activity seem to be modified by COMT genotype and task demand.
Only structures 1 and 2 could permit environment adaptation to be useful for training tasks, since only in these structures are the parameters modified by environment adaptation also used for tasks (see Figure 1).
Task difficulty was modified by varying the number of lines that had nonvertical orientations in the relevant hemifield [22].
Importantly, from our previous studies in developmental CPF exposures, we know that vocalization rates in such female task can be modified by prenatal CPF exposure [ 42].
By adapting the Stroop color word test to walking, we also attempted to determine if the ability to integrate visual information during dual-tasking could be modified by the effects of aging and/or cognitive status.
Dual-task postural control can be modified by specific training.
The experimental task of the present study is based on the list-processing task originally developed by Weber, Burt, and Noll [12] and later modified by Dark [13] and Carlson, Wenger, and Sullivan [14], [15].
