Cognitive Involvement in Balance, Gait and Dual-Tasking in Aging: A Focused Review From a Neuroscience of Aging Perspective.

TL;DR: This focused review takes a cognitive neuroscience of aging perspective in interpreting cognitive motor dual-task findings, and considers the importance of identifying the neural circuits that are engaged by the cognitive task in relation to those that are engage during motor task performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of aging on prefrontal brain activation during challenging walking conditions

TL;DR: Prefrontal activation during walking is dependent on age and task properties and that older adults apparently rely more on cognitive resources even during usual walking task, suggesting increased gait variability in older adults.
Journal ArticleDOI

When does walking alter thinking? Age and task associated findings.

TL;DR: Findings in both young and old subjects underscore the idea that gait is attention-demanding and is not a purely motor task, and even young, healthy adults demonstrate decreased cognitive performance while walking, when the cognitive task is sufficiently difficult.
