Abstract

The article presents a synopsis on group-format dual-task training which reduces dual-task interference in mobility tasks in people with chronic stroke. Topics discussed include potential advantages in terms of increasing social interactions, improving adherence, and reducing costs; simultaneous performance practice of walking and concurrent tasks across numerous participants; and reductions in dual-task interference effects were observed only in the group receiving dual-task training.
