Summary
This study looked at how mental and muscle fatigue change the ability of older adults to walk and do a counting task at the same time. Researchers tested 66 people (young and old) before and after fatigue tasks. The goal was to see if fatigue affects dual-task performance, which is used to detect fall risk and thinking problems.
