Psychometric properties of the interaction on supervised classes scale (ISCS)
2016
Objeto: La presente investigación se centra en la construcción y validación de una escala diseñada para evaluar la calidad de la clases dirigidas: Escala de Interacción en las Clases Dirigidas (EICD). Diseño/metodología/enfoque: Se trata de un estudio descriptivo correlacional. Para la elaboración de la escala se recurrió a tres fases diferenciadas en las que diferentes expertos evaluaron la adecuación de los ítems, finalmente se estudiaron las propiedades psicométricas de la versión final en una muestra de 314 socios (69.1% mujeres) con edades entre los 18 y los 77 con una media de 39.33 años (DT=12.25). Aportaciones y resultados: La escala presenta una validez y fiabilidad adecuadas, sien…
Effects of dual task difficulty in motor and cognitive performance: Differences between adults and adolescents
2017
In the present study our aim was to compare dual-task performance in thirteen adolescents and fifteen young adults while concurrently performing a cognitive and a motor task. The postural control variables were obtained under three different conditions: i) bipedal stance, ii) tandem stance and iii) unipedal stance. The cognitive task consisted of a backward digit span test in which the participants were asked to memorize a sequence of numbers and then repeat the number in reverse order at three different difficulty levels (i.e. with 3, 4 and 5 digits). The difficulty of the cognitive task was seen to have different effects on adolescents and young adults. Adolescents seem to prioritize post…
Effects of A Dual-Task Intervention in Postural Control and Cognitive Performance in Adolescents.
2019
The aim was to assess dual- versus single-task training for motor performance and cognitive performance in adolescents. Two experiments were performed. In the first, 30 adolescents were randomized to three groups to determine the effect of dual-task difficulty on postural control: α-scaling and root mean square (RMS). In the second, 20 adolescents were randomized to two groups to determine the effect of dual-task practice to improve working memory. RMS in the post-test was lower than the pre-test in both dual-task groups, while α-scaling was lower in post-test than pre-test only in the high-difficulty dual-task group. A practice effect was observed on the percentage of correct answers only …
