Öğe Comparison of The Effect of Smoking Status on Cognitive Function, Motor Performance and Dual-Task in Sedentary Healthy Young Adults(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Eylül) Taşvuran Horata, Emel; Eken, Fatma; Güven, İzgi; Ertürk, Abdulkadir; Erel, SuatAim: Many studies emphasize that smoking has negative effects on cognitive function and muscle strength. Therefore, the study aimed to compare cognitive function, motor performance, and dual-task of sedentary healthy young individuals according to smoking status. Method: In the descriptive study, young adults between the ages of 18 - 25 were included. Participants were divided into two groups; smokers and nonsmokers. Executive function was analyzed with the Stroop test. For motor performance, quadriceps femoris muscle and grip strength measured and Extended Timed Up and Go (ETUG) test were used. Participants’ dual-task gait performance was assessed with an auditory task concurrent with the ETUG. Findings: 62 participants with a mean age of 21.08 ± 1.08 and a body mass index of 21.73 ± 2.76 were included. In intergroup comparisons, there was no difference between two groups in cognitive function, quadriceps muscle strength and grip strength (p>0.05). There was a difference in favour of nonsmokers between two groups in ETUG and cognitive ETUG (p<0.05). Results: In conclusion, smoking causes performance loss in both dynamic functional activities and dual-task in young adults.
