Postural control is one of mankind’s basic motor skills. As the position of cognitive the rise of dual-task studies, more and more experimental studies have shown that postural control is not automated, and posture to restore and maintain the mental tasks and completed the cognitive processes required for the same cognitive resources also need to take 2. with cognitive heart dual task paradigm of Science to explore the interaction between posture awareness, is becoming a dual task of research is expanding the area of new 3. and the elderly for specific diseases such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s disease, stroke and other high-risk population, the resulting self-balance, cognitive function decline and fall prone to the phenomenon, making it one of the areas of concern in the research.
