| summary | In order to understand how human movement is controlled in more real-world settings, we have begun to study conditions in which participants are required to perform motor and non-motor tasks concurrently. The purpose of this presentation will be to discuss several studies in which we have used dual-tasking to examine how environment (water immersion) and practice (task-specific training) affect balance and upper extremity motor function. This presentation will also briefly discuss the generalization of motor learning following task-specific upper extremity training. The focus will be primarily on patients with chronic post-stroke hemiparesis in addition to healthy adults, with potential insights from new work related to aging as well. |
