Comparison of Two Different Dual-Task Training Methods in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

Comparison of Motor-Motor and Cognitive-Motor Dual-Task Training in Patients With Parkinson's Disease

The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of motor-motor dual-task training and cognitive-motor dual-task training in patients with Parkinson's disease.The main questions it aims to answer are:

- Whether there is a difference between motor-motor dual-task training and cognitive-motor dual-task training in patients with Parkinson's disease in terms of their effects on motor symptoms, balance, gait, functional mobility, activities of daily living, dual-task activities, cognitive functions, and balance confidence.

Researchers will compare single-task training, motor-motor dual task training and cogvitive-motor dual task training.

Participants will:

• Receive exercise training at the study clinic twice a week for approximately 45 minutes each time, for 6 weeks.
• Participate in assessments at the study clinic before and after exercise training.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Having been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease by a neurologist according to the UK Brain Bank criteria.
• Being in stages 1-3 according to the Hoehn-Yahr Scale.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Presence of a neurological disease other than Parkinson's disease
• Cognitive impairment (Standardized Mini Mental Test score less than 24)
• Having undergone deep brain stimulation surgery
• Having a visual, auditory, or perceptual problem
• Having any orthopedic, rheumatological, or other condition that may affect walking and balance.
