El desempeño de una doble tarea puede aumentar el riesgo de caídas durante la marcha en personas mayores. El impacto de una doble tarea puede depender de su complejidad en cuanto al procesamiento de información. Las distintas configuraciones de dobles tareas infieren distintas demandas para dicho procesamiento. En este estudio se investigó si las distintas configuraciones de dobles tareas pueden afectar el rendimiento de la transposición de obstáculo en la marcha de personas mayores. Han participado diez personas mayores independientes y evaluadas durante la marcha cruzando un obstáculo vertical mientras hacían dos dobles tareas: (a) con input auditorio (variación de la tarea de Stroop) y (b) sin input auditorio (hablar los días de semana en orden reverso). Se dedujo que el rendimiento de la doble tarea estaría relacionado con el tipo de su input, y el input auditorio exigía un mayor procesamiento de información; por lo tanto, podría tener un mayor impacto en la marcha. Se encontró que el rendimiento en la superación de obstáculos fue semejante en las dos condiciones de doble tarea evaluadas. Así, ambas afectan a la superación del obstáculo en igual medida en personas mayores.Descargas
