Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Dual Task (DT); is the process of performing two tasks that can be performed independently and have different purposes simultaneously. Walking with dual tasks has recently been shown to resemble typical walking performance in daily life, thus providing clinicians with a realistic walking performance measurement in daily life. Although the effects of dual task performance in various neurological diseases have been partially described in the literature, the comparison of dual task training and cognitive rehabilitation on walking, balance, fatigue and cognitive performance has not been made and due to this deficiency in the literature, our study was planned and has originality. The aim of our study is to investigate the effects of dual task training and cognitive rehabilitation on walking, balance, fatigue and cognitive performance in individuals with MS.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Dual Task Training Group
The dual task training group will receive training 2 days a week for 6 weeks. Patients will receive dual task training. They will also receive 30 minutes of individual physiotherapy exercises. 2 days a week. The effects of dual task training and cognitive rehabilitation on gait, balance, fatigue and cognitive performance will be compared.
Dual Task Training
In dual task training, patients will be given cognitive exercises such as counting backwards from 100 by 3, counting the names of cities, girls and boys while walking.
Cognitive Rehabilitation Group
The cognitive rehabilitation group will receive training 2 days a week for 6 weeks. Patients will receive cognitive rehabilitation group. They will also receive 30 minutes of individual physiotherapy exercises 2 days a week.
Cognitive Rehabilitation
In cognitive rehabilitation, patients will be given paper-and-pencil activities and exercises to find the difference between two pictures.
Conventionel Physiotherapy Group
The conventionel physiotherapy group will receive training 2 days a week for 6 weeks.This group will only receive individual physiotherapy 2 days a week.
Conventionel Physiotherapy
In conventionel physiotherapy, patients will be given posture exercises for balance and strengthening.
