With a long history, dual-task has become one of the
\r\nmost intriguing research fields regarding human brain functioning
\r\nand cognition. However, findings considering effects of taskinterrelations
\r\nare limited (especially, in combined motor and
\r\ncognitive tasks). Therefore, we aimed at developing a measurement
\r\nsystem in order to analyse interrelation effects of cognitive and motor
\r\ntasks. On the one hand, the present study demonstrates the
\r\napplicability of the measurement system and on the other hand first
\r\nresults regarding a systematisation of different task combinations are
\r\nshown. Future investigations should combine imagine technologies
\r\nand this developed measurement system.<\/p>\r\n","references":"[1] L. M. Solomon, and G.
