Abstract

Date Presented 4/17/2015

People living with Parkinson’s disease experience specific links between activities and symptoms, such as motor control impairment during basic activities of daily life (ADL) and fatigue during instrumental ADL. There is a need for assessments and interventions that target these specific links.
