Effect of Dual Tasking On Walking Over Even and Uneven Surfaces in Functionally Independent Community Older Adults
<p>While several studies have reported a decrement in performance by older adults while walking and concurrently performing a dual task on even surfaces, to date the effects of dual tasking while walking on uneven surfaces commonly found in the community has received less attention. Thus, we sought …
