Interventions
The Dual Task Questionnaire will be used to obtain information about the difficulties individuals experience when performing tasks that require dual tasks in situations they encounter in daily life. The dual-task questionnaire consists of 10 questions. The questions will be read to the subjects in order, and there will be no time limit for them to answer. If geriatric individuals do not understand a question, the necessary explanations will be provided and the question will be repeated. Each question is scored as very often (4), often (3), occasionally (2), rarely (1), and never (0). The answers to all questions are added up, the total score is calculated, and divided by 10. Lower scores indicate better dual task performance.
