Abstract
A single-case study with a pre-post design examining the effects of a working memory updating training in one participant with Parkinson’s disease. Improvements in cognition and increased striatal activity have been presented previously. The current poster will display improvements in sequential goal-directed upper-limb performance as derived from kinematic movement analysis.
