U.S., Aug. 6 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07103837) titled 'Development, Validity, and Reliability of the Reactive Skill Test in Older Adults' on July 29.
Brief Summary: Aging is associated with cognitive and physical decline, leading to an increased risk of falls in older adults. Recent evidence highlights the critical role of cognitive functions-such as attention, memory, and executive functioning-in postural control and fall risk. This study aims to develop and validate a novel Reactive Skill Test (RST) that simultaneously assesses cognitive (reaction time, visual attention, short-term memory) and motor responses in older adults. The test involves matching colored stimuli to targets using ...
