Dual-task and movement: a bibliometric study based on high-impact search engines

Abstract

The interest and impact of scientific productions on dual-task and movement in recent years have demonstrated the worldwide relevance of this topic, especially in neuroscience, neurorehabilitation, and cognitive stimulation. Therefore, this research aims to conduct a bibliometric study on the scientific production published on dual-task and movement in high-impact search engines in the last decade, from 2012 to 2022. Once classified and parceled out all the information, screening was carried out, obtaining a final sample of 175 articles. The main findings that emerge from the research reviewed highlight the great benefits that dual-tasking and movement have on humans, especially in older age. Despite this, it should be noted that recent studies focus on younger participants, most of whom are of school age. Hence, considering that this practice has been proven to be highly effective, it would be convenient to implement it in the educational field in order to determine whether it can improve the integral development of the human beings. Keywords: dual-task, movement, executive functions, Bapne, cognitive stimulation.

The Retos journal is in the second quartile of Scopus: a bibliometric analysis from 2016 to 2023

“…The aim of this article is to analyze the terminology related to human motor skills and propose the neologism neuromotor skills (neuromotricity) as a concept for the 21st century (Andreu-Cabrera & Romero-Naranjo, 2022). Furthermore, there are three recent publications related to the theme of the BAPNE Method and Neuromotricity that were published in volume 50 in 2023 in the journal Retos (Mas-Mas et al, 2023;Naranjo & Cabrera, 2023). We found that there were 12 articles related to this specific theme published in the journal Retos until 2023.…”

“…And also there's a quite number of studies that have been conducted showing improvement in gait while performing rhythmic activities (Kim et al, 2017b(Kim et al, , 2020Montero-Odasso et al, 2014;Oh Shy et al, 2016;Patel et al, 2014;Schrodt et al, 2004). BAPNE method provides with hundreds of specific and sequenced activities to exercise the dual task through rhythm using various resources of displacement and motor movements (Alonso-Marco & Romero-Naranjo, 2022; Andreu-Cabrera & Romero -Naranjo, 2021; Arnau-Mollá & Romero- Naranjo, 2022aNaranjo, , 2022bGonzález-Sánchez et al, 2021;Mas-Mas, 2023;Romero-Naranjo & Sayago-Martínez, 2021a, 2021bRomero-Naranjo, 2008, 2012, 2013a, 2013b, 2019a, 2019b, 2019c, 2019d, 2019e, 2019f, 2019g, 2019h, 2019i, 2019j, 2020a, 2020b.…”

“…There is an extensive bibliography on this subject in which dual tasks are of great interest (Mas-Mas et al, 2023). On its relationship with cognitive and executive functions there is literature by thematic areas (Romero-Naranjo, 2012, 2013a, 2013bFernández-Molina et al, 2020).…”
